I wouldn’t still be listening if these weren’t so good! (I’ll still be on the back row, though!)
Thank you for your “unintended ministry”. – which has helped many many people!
Haha. Textimony..never heard that before. But I love all your Textimonies haha.
Good friends are a blessing. As a young girl I didn’t have many friends but the Lord has blessed me with quite a few in my later years haha.
I consider you one of them. I am usually on the 2nd row at church. I will save you a seat if you want to come forward haha.

So here’s on for you, in Hebrew we call the cellphone pelephone. Pele means wonder. So it’s a woderphone. No not wonderbead. But it’s a wonder it even works.
So today’s tech with AI, you don’t have to write your text or your “testimony”. Just tell chat AI to write it for you.
Testimony is something I learned when I first became a Christian and was born again at the age of 38 by a pastor saved from drugs. I was under his umbrella for a few years and he helped me decide what to do about my education. Another minister also saved from drugs said to go to a Bible believing college which I did. I was a freshman at 42 because my parents who were retired offered to pay for it. When I was 18 and my friends were in college I couldn’t afford it and neither could they so I just waited until I could. In fact they said they didn’t care what my degree was. I loved communication and art so it’s an English BA and MA liberal arts. I spent 2 summers in Europe. I noticed the young students come in partying without a clue what to do. They didn’t go to convocation. That’s what I wanted and you couldn’t graduate without it. I think I had more convocation points than anyone else!
At the age of 38 the pastor saved me and said that born again means anew creature in Christ and my past sins are nailed to the cross and I can start redemption. I’ve worked very very hard at that!
I gave up alcohol in 2008 due to conflict with medical. The pastor had a story about telling a flight attendant no thanks for champagne it would only bring me down. So I did that and it’s the truth! After 15 minutes the want went away and I wasn’t depressed at all. I also read the Bible even those long names in the OT.
I attend church service here on Sunday when I can. One of the pastors is my age with a similar testimony and when I can’t go he stops by to see me and prays. He said I always smile and I do. I’m always happy !
That’s not all my testimony but enough for a nutshell sermon. But it’s just a response. A professor gave me the grade and Exhausting on my final grad school graduation. It was late and he graded it the morning of graduation. I love to guild the lily but that’s another story. Lol
This was amazing. I don’t necessarily “not” believe in coincidences but I love how God orchestrates the timing of lots of things. Yeah, you were on my mind and thank you for connecting because now I know what to pray for. That’s a teaser about my textimony right there.
Hi James got yer vote of confidence too.. I think of the years where we would ‘look to encourage’ and it never felt like much of a ministry.. cause it never came with a building!

I hate that they have leveled the playing field in writing with AI.. nobody has to think anymore.. maybe that’s why there’s so many mentally ill ..
