My Testimony of Divine Protection (Psalm 105:1)

I have a powerful testimony to share with you today about God's peace, protection, and forgiveness. Two weeks ago, my granddaughter had been staying with me for 11 days. As I returned her to the airport in my BMW, I encountered a situation that tested my faith and ultimately showed me the extent of God's grace.

Upon arriving at the car rental facility, I discovered that all the cars were gone. Thankfully, I found another rental facility nearby offering luxury cars at a discount in honor of my birthday. I was able to secure a fully loaded 23 BMW, allowing me to continue with my plans for the day.

After a busy day of meetings and errands, I stopped to get gas. As I attempted to leave the gas station, a car blocked my path. A man approached me with a gun and a crowbar, demanding my keys. In that moment, a blanket of peace enveloped me, reminding me of the promise of perfect peace for those who keep their minds focused on God.

Despite the fear and uncertainty of the situation, I felt a whisper from the Holy Spirit urging me to comply. I handed over my keys, asked for permission to take my phone and wallet, and then peacefully left the scene. Within moments, the perpetrators fled, and I was able to contact the authorities for help.

When the police arrived to investigate, they were astonished by my calm demeanor. The officer noted that in his years on the force, he had never encountered someone so composed after a carjacking. I shared with them the source of my peace and gratitude, citing the verse that speaks of God's peace that surpasses all understanding.

As I recounted the events of that day, the officers listened intently, amazed by the outcome of a situation that could have ended much differently. I was grateful for their understanding and for the opportunity to share the power of God's presence in the midst of chaos.

This experience served as a reminder of the importance of faith and trust in God's plan, even in the face of danger. I am thankful for His protection and grace, and I pray that this testimony serves as a testament to His unfailing love and provision in all circumstances.

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...
