Away of the church and then the spirit of God will move like never before and that there will be a great revival sweeping across this country like the world has never seen in the last days.
I have really been inspired by this forum and blessed by so many and I am fairly new to this one, I post on the relic hunting forum a lot but now I have found myself going here first and then to the other forums. I have enjoyed conversations with Mike from Michigan and have enjoyed Pete's posting a lot these past couple days (if your not a pastor you should be). My life was turned upside down two years ago. I have been a Christian for 27 years I have a wife and three children and now I am enjoying my first grand baby! what a joy.
I was arrested two years ago for taking some old equipment from work,it was to be thrown away and I asked if I could have some of it, the Foreman said sure they then accused me stealing it, but actually I had permission but not from the "owner" of the company. Of course when the Foreman was asked about it he denied everything. To make a long story short I was placed in jail for three months and on work release for 4 more months and placed on probation. My world was turned upside down. I held an office in church and of course my wife and I went before the congregation and stepped down my position. After three months the senior pastor reinstated me and it caused about five families to leave the church because they said that it was wrong for me to be in any kind of position.Pastor then let me work at the church full time to get me out on work release because naturally I was fired from my other job. This caused more people to get angry and quit coming to church. My life was a wreck and I had to start seeing a counsel for depression. I hurt so many people and my family and friends. how can I ever face them again. Well, things got worse. After work release I could not work full time at the church because they just could not afford to pay me what I needed to make. I could not find a job anywhere and was in a state of deep depression.I kept applying but got turned down because now, on top of everything else I am a "convicted felon".Well, I finally did get a job making five dollars less an hour than I was making but it was a job and I was thankful.
After I was there for 6 months I received a $2.00 raise and an excellent review. Then, not long after at work, I lost part of my middle finger, right hand. At the exact same time my father was having a massive heart attack and was on his way to the same hospital I was being taken t
ur Senior pastor at church had a massive heart attack in Israel and died, our senior pastor pastor in Baltimore, MD church, his daughter was diagnosed with cancer. But, I am still hanging in there and still praising God. Why am I posting this long message? well because I have seen some people leaving this forum and it is breaking my heart. I feel God led me to this forum for a reason and now people are leaving it? Man, does it ever stop?. MAGAR has been a blessing to me just from reading her messages.
God bless to all and forgive me for being long winded.I know things get tough but we should never give up.
