She was from Sacramento, California and we began to exchange a few words. I asked her what she was doing in London and she explained that she was a student. She had spent three months there and was going home to visit her family. I also discovered that she had had a roommate in London that had got on her nerves more and more while she was living there. She was leaving London and she was glad to see the end of her. She asked me whether I was married, whether I had children, where I lived. There was polite conversation for a while, until after a while, we lapsed into silence for the ten hour flight ahead. About three hours into the flight I was sitting quietly, reading my Bible, when God impressed the name Gillian on my mind and I felt that He wanted me to ask her about Gillian. “I can’t do that”, I thought. “Ask her”, said the Lord more firmly this time (you see God is patient). “I can’t do that - she will think that I’m crazy”, I responded. “Ask her”, said the Lord more firmly this time. I gritted my teeth and turned to her: “Tell me about Gillian”, I said. She replied, “Which Gillian?” She probed further, “Gillian in London or Gillian in Florida?” “I don’t know - you tell me”, I responded. She then proceeded to tell me that her friend Gillian in Florida came to live with her in London and was her roommate for three months. God had given me the name of her roommate that had got on her nerves! Then she caught herself: “Tell me how you knew about Gillian?” For the rest of the flight I had a captive audience as I shared with her the power of the Holy Spirit and what it means to know this Jesus Christ.

He will take them and use you, like He has done for me. I was abandoned, adopted and found my natural mum and family. My family are not Christians and I believe if God had left me with them I would be in a horrible mess today. You see at age 15 I was unable to cope with severe mental illness. It was only through God's intervention that I received the best medical care and help to recover from depression that could have killed me. My adoptive parents are Christians and compassionately got me the treatment I needed to recover. Today, I'm 36, and I have given my life to serving our amazing Lord. He is healing me from the inside out and has forgiven me for all the anger and mistakes I've made in the past. He can do the same for you. If you give Him your past mistakes He will take them and you will feel peace. Trust Him He wants whats best for you. He loves you so much, and you deserve to feel His peace. Love Lyndal xx Dear reader,

Many people wonder why their prayers are not answered, but the answer is simple; When you pray for a job, tell God how you're going to spend your money and how excellent you will be in tithing and offering. God will check your intentions and He will bless you with a job. Now the practical part comes, and you find that a person does not live up to His word, then that is where God sees that you are not ready yet for bigger blessings and He will let you be at that stagnant point until you are ready to make a commitment to live up to your word. The rule is simple: Pray for something having a good intention and motive God will bless you. After He has blessed you then be a blessing to others. Live up to your word and you will see, God will bless you more abundantly. David Goitsemang Motswagae God works with what is in your heart, he looks at your intentions and motives.

God is so awesome. We did not get to the point of IVF but I was just before contemplating adoption and I was really not wanting to do that because I wanted to see the characteristics of Mom and Dad in my baby's face. We are now at 31 weeks and I am so in awe of what Father God has done for us. They say my baby is going to be anywhere from 8-10 lbs so she is a healthy baby too! I have given this child to God for his service. He is good enough to see that we have a child so I wanted to honor him and dedicate this child to the Lord. I pray that all goes well in the birth process for you both and may you have a beautiful, healthy baby! Rene, the best advice I could give you is believe even when you do not feel like believing. There is a song that I would listen to in my hour of despair and it is by the gospel group called "The Whisnants" and it is called "A Greater Yes." The words would get me to crying all the time because it talks about how it starts with a desire planted deep within your heart and you pray and pray waiting for God to move and then it basically is talking about the time and the silence that we have to go through before the answer is "Yes." It is tough but I have never seen God's seed begging bread and let me tell you I never will. He will never leave you and will never forsake you. In this economy it is so tough today and we are stretching our dollar as far as it will go. I would like to share a site with you today that is about saving money through coupons and I have been trying to save at every cost but this lady is really smart and she is a stay at home mother that had to make ends meet the best way she knew how and she found that with stores that would double coupons she brings in loads of groceries and I mean a hundred dollars worth or so for as little as $24.00 with the use of coupons. I want to share the site with you if I may be permitted to do so. It is smartspendingresources.com. I hope this will help in this ever increasing world of high gas prices and high food prices and just overwhelming prices on everything. What I try to do is look at what I do have and sometimes it is not easy but I try to count my blessings and look at all those out there that are less fortunate than I and I realize just how blessed I truly am. I watched a dateline show on these little children in Zimbabwe that did not have shoes and the missionaries came and brought them all shoes and I wish you could have seen their faces. It made me realize I have nothing to worry about. When we worry too, I believe we are in direct disobedience to God because he said to not think on these things. What you are going to wear or eat because he knows every hair on our head and he cares for us. He will not let us go without. So dear sister, I encourage you to read Hebrews 11 and I start out my morning with this verse because it restores my faith when I do not feel like having any and believe you me I have had my days. I pray that we all would be blessed with supernatural financial prosperity and that the Lord would move on our behalf very soon. He owns the cattle on a thousand hills and all we have to do is ask him to sell a little for us so that we can have some of the proceeds. It is amazing to watch God at work. If you truly believe he will move in mighty ways! God Bless you all! Hi Nalaka,

We did all the treatments under the sun. One IU in Singapore and 2 expensive IVFs in India. We followed all the faiths except Islam. Then we happened to follow few prayers guided by an evangelistic couple. In two months, my wife was conceived. Can you feel the happiness we are going through. The medical science could not solve our problem. Thank you father God. I pray that you would help such childless couples all over the world.

Yes everyday is a day to marvell at the mercy of our God. His love truelly has no end, something the human mind will never understand, that one can be loved and valued so much. My husband and I have been married for 10 yrs and are blessed with 3 angels. We struggle financially but God provides, at least we have enough to get by. We had a car which was more broken than driven and every morning would start with us praying for this vehicle to start. My husband would have to get up 30min earlier just to get the car started as hit needs to warm up first. We would end up being late for work everyday but had to get our kids to my mom which lives a 15min drive away from us. Most times our kids would sleep there and just come home over weekends specially winter. My boss being a Christian himself was well aware of my dilemma everyday. I often prayed through our frustration and would every morning remind my darling husband that this is not the life God intends for us to have struggling with a car or having to walk at 5H30am every morning with our kids. December 2006 my boss invited the Napoleons for supper, more telling me to come than inviting me. Anyway that evening he handed me a box and told me that God has spoken to him and he wants no nonsense from me, not wanting to accept his gift. Hopefully you have made out that the little box contained the car keys to his Toyota Tazz which he blessed us with as he was in the process of buying himself a new car. Today getting ready for work is easier, no more keeping fingers cross for the car to work everymorning by God's grace we just get in and go. This car has been a blessing and i still cannot thank God enough. We no longer have to rent our kids over weekends and we pray in the car everymorning as we leave to go our seperate ways. God is made our travelling alot easier. Be blessed and thank you for all the amazing testimonies. Good day my fellow brothers and sister in Christ.
