…that are not necessities. I am not saying that these things, in and of themselves, are bad. And perhaps at times there is a need for some of these things. But we tend to excuse our indulgences and use our resources on them and then state that we have no funds to help others, or help to further the kingdom. Nor are children necessarily deprived because they do not have television or the latest gadgets or clothes that their friends…
…them and it will come back to them in God’s time–not in your time. God knows and hears all your prayers and your tears; he is just waiting until the right time to go to your loved one’s soul and knock on the door and say, “Come home my child, come home.

Sweetie, you have been out for more than a year.” Demonic depression Could she be right? Could I have been in a thirteen month coma? I must have been. Why should she lie? “After you were hit you were taken by Life Flight into the hospital, where you spent the first twelve weeks in intensive care. Then, after you were stable…
…fact, conflict actually increased (due to demonic attacks constantly coming against them, which I’ve come to realize is quite typical). Even so, their lives had become centered on helping others grow in their relationship with God, instead of being self-consumed with pain, bitterness and confusion like mine was. So near age 35 (around 1980), I was a wreck. I was facing death by essentially my own choosing, and I wasn’t convinced in my heart that I would go to heaven…

She told me that the blood test I took when I first got there came back and that I had Hepatitis C which cannot be cured.
