:think: I see that we have a Prayer Request Thread... how about a Praise Report Thread to tell about the good things God has done for us and how he has blessed our lives. When praises go up, blessings do come down from heaven above. :clap:
Let's give God some praise all my sisters in Christ! :notworthy

A little background:
My senior year in high school I had a job and quit my job so that I could focus on my studies. I haven't had a job since then (2002).
Now on to the story:
I have been looking for a job since the beginning of the year since I am taking a break from school. I wasn't getting any callbacks from any of the places I put in an application. I reapplied at the place that I worked my senior year. I got the job, but I was fired from the job before I even started (long story, the devil is a liar). I was upset and angry. It has since been maybe 2 weeks since I was fired. Well today (thank you Jesus!) I get a call from one of the places that I applied to at the beginning of January and I have an interview next Tuesday! I was getting stressed because I have to start paying my student loans back this month and I don't have a job. Pray for me everyone that I may get this job. God is so good!

I have a praise report...
The Lord finally delievered me through my sickness last weekend. Boy am I happy and relieved.
I had placed a prayer request about my ex-boyfriend. Now his car is fix and he has started taking classes to get into school!
My sister is doing better in school. But still keep her and her son in your prayers. My nephew has been sick with a bad cough. He's 7 months old right now.
Right now, I have been having a great time during this time of doing a fulltime internship instead of taking classes this semester. I'm blessed to have this internship so I'll know what it's like to work during a tax season in accounting and to see if I like it or not.
We could make this thread a sticky like the prayer request thread so we can have things to pray about as well as shout about! ;)

Ok...
Background...Last Wednesday night, I experienced a tingling sensation in my bottom lip and down my right arm. I had lost all strength in my right hand as a result. I could not even open a door.
Thanks to everyone's prayers, my right hand is almost as good as new. Fact: I still have a little trouble typing and writing, but TRUTH: Hallelujah to the King, I am healed! I went to the doctor for a followup visit, and all of my tests were NORMAL!!! He was testing me to see if I had had a stroke. The only thing that showed up out of all the tests that they did was a sinus infection on the cat scan!
God is sooo awesome, and I thank Him and praise Him for Who He is!!! I am sooo thankful. Praise God!!!

It is wonderful to see young people taking a stand for Jesus. I have a 10 year old son who told me he doesn't feel ready yet. I didn't push him. He'll have to come to that decision on his own. If your son wants to be baptized, take him to the youth pastor where they can talk to him, and he can decide whether he's really ready or not. :)

First of all, I just want to praise the Lord for just being wonderful and merciful to all! In two weeks, a good friend of mine is getting baptized. When we first met, anything me or anyone else said about Christ, she just wanted no part of. If a group of us cooked and prayed over the food, she would leave the room (she was a self proclaimed agnostic who has never been "churched"). Three years later, she gave her life to the Lord and is going to be baptized. I am just so happy, b/c I know that God is able to show himself to anyone and that he used me as well as some others to help show her who he was! He is so good!

I thank and praise my Heavenly Father for not only extending his traveling mercies to my husband as he went to Europe the other day, but God touched my little puppy, who had diarrhea for days, and now he is just fine. I was so worried but I hand it to the Lord and he directed me to the right people who gave me info that cured him in one day. God is good in all things, even with things we may think are unimportant. That's why I love and praise hims so, nothing is too insignificant for his attention or touch. I happy to know I serve an awesome and loving God. :)

I don't know if this is a praise report or not, but I'm going to share it anyway. Since last year I had a friend who was going through sooooo much. She's a single parent of 2 sons, she had just gotten out a a bad relationship, gotten into another relationship in which she was to be maried, but they broke up, her car was repossessed, she had her heat cut off when it was freezing cold, her phone was cut off, and her mom was in and out of the hospital having surgeries to keep her lungs open. Well, you ladies who know me know how I love to fast and pray. I have kept her lifted up before the Lord since all this started. One day she came to me, crying her heart out, saying she felt she needed to put her sons (7 and 10) in a home because she could not care for them any longer. Well, I have worked in homes and I felt her children would not survive in them. So, I came home and told my husband I realized our kids were grown, but we have a big house and these children needed to continue living somewhere where the ways of the Lord were taught. I felt we should take her sons until she got back on her feet. My husband agreed and I was going to take them. However, during bible study she stood and gave her testimony of how God had finally answered her prayers. She had applied for this job (she's in school and will graduate in December) and got it. What was so great about it, they are going to pay her a stipen until she graduates and then she starts working for them in January. Now this stipen is more than she was getting with her part-time job. On top of that, we found out yesterday she made the Dean's list despite all she was going through! Now, she can keep her kids, and she'll be able to get a used car when they give her the first check in a few days. Her heat and phone are back on, and she is PRAISING THE LORD FOR IT ALL.
We were in choir rehearsal when I found out and the Spirit of the Lord hit me like a fire. It's a wonderful feeling to know your prayers are being answered, even if they were prayers for someone else's situation. I began to cry and just get all wrapped up in the Lord. It was like once the Spirit hit me, it went all through the choir. We sang as if we were in church on Sunday and God truly had his way. I can NEVER remember anything like this happening during a rehearsal. But the power of the Lord is strong and I thank God everytime I hear about what he is doing for his children...it gives me joy, increases my faith, and makes me walk around with hope even when things are a little out of sorts in my own life.
I share this because maybe it will offer others hope, joy, and strenghtening of their faith. GOD IS STILL ANSWERING PRAYERS so please don't give up.
Okay, I'll stop crying and writing now :)

PRAISE REPORT: I was very ill with Pneumonia, Pleurisy(inflammation of the lining of the lung), and Atelectasis (partially collapsed lung) in the latter part of Jan. The doctors had no idea how I could have come down with such an affliction, or what bacteria was causing the infection that wouldn't go away after they used 3 different antibiotics every day for 9 days. I had to have a blood transfusion and everything. I was hospitalized for 9 days, and through it all I did not lose faith. My pastor told me that it was a spiritual attack, which is why the doctors couldn't pin point the cause. I'm glad to say God healed me, and I feel better than ever! :D

When God opens a door, noone can close it. I tried for the past 3 years to have my credits transfered to my current school to no avail I was rejected many times until I gave up. The Lord put it on my heart to try once more and I did and I found out a few weeks ago that they excepted my credits. And so after many years and obstacles I will be graduating this May 2005.
I was blessed to get some very much needed dental work after years of not being able to afford it.
I applied to the medical school of my choice and they want to interview me.
I will be finishing my internship 1 month early.

My mother was in a car accident a little over a week ago, she had minor injuries, a sprain in her hand, a bad cut on her lip that had to have stitches, and whiplash. She is still a little sore off and on, but shes recovering very well. I have been praying for her because she had become depressed since my father passed a few years back and everytime I get her excited or motivated about something the devil steps in with something *major* to try to shut her down. Since December she has lost three siblings to cancer. I think she feels guilty when shes starts enjoying life again. My sister is coming home soon, she was getting really excited over her visit, wanting to make some changes around the home, in fact, when she was out driving she was on her way to get some things for the yard when the accident happened. She said, "See, y'all tell me to get out more and I get out and this happens." (Which sort of threw me since she gets out and drives all the time, but I know she was upset.) I rebuked that immediately but I was still so worried about her becoming depressed. Praise God!! She hasnt become depressed, she is still excited about my sister coming home and is even looking forward to getting a new car. Its still soon after her accident, and she is still somewhat stiff but shes doing very well and is in good spirits. I'm praying that her spirits continue to rise.

first off I want to share how happy I am of everyone's blessings :clap:
I was just telling my mother this, some of you know I've been supporting her financially for the last 2 years. She's had trouble paying her mortgage, so I picked up her utility bills and instructed her to put whatever money she had into her monthly mortgage bill. I started feeling sour about this when I'd hear about my girlfriends spending money on designer clothes, manicures and pedicures etc. while I could get those things if I weren't paying my rent, utilities, and my mom's utilities. But I kept the resentment to myself, thinking of how blessed I was to have my mom and what she's done for me (had me at a young age when she could have just given me up, introduced me to the church when I was young and made sure I stayed close to God). I asked the Lord to help my mom's financial situation and continue blessing her. Well, since all this started my rent has gone up and I still don't make that much money after taxes and not even get much back after filing, but BOTH our bills have always been paid despite my income level and high gas prices from new england winters (I paid close to $2000 on her gas bill this past winter alone). I got some good news that she was able to successfully file bankruptcy, clearing her credit card debt so that's a start, and she started meeting w/ a very nice financial advisor whom I trust as well (got a good vibe from her & I'm a good judge of character). I don't need those material things anyways, but I was able to get a pedicure a couple of weeks ago, and I went a little crazy in Marshalls last week :lol: but it's all good, I felt guilty about my splurge but my mom said you work hard, take care of me and the bills are paid so don't feel guilty about doing something for yourself.
I had asked some of you ladies to pray for my mom too, your prayers have helped plenty so I want to give a special shout-out to those who were praying for us :kiss:

I just have to thank God. I was struggling in the area of my finances. I applied for a grant for the summer that would allow me to use the money to help pay for my thesis, registration costs, etc. Well, I applied for 500.00 (250 for summer 1 and 250 for summer 2). I received 1000.00 for summer 1.
I just give God the glory.

God has healed and strengthened my marriage with my husband (Praise Him!!!!) and our family will be moving into a brand new home very shortly. God blessed us with the strength to make the decision to move, even though we thought we couldn't afford it, and He just keeps making the way. We are truly truly thankful! Amen!

I have a praise report!
I was let go (not for a bad reason) from my job early in May, and have been applying and submitting resumes. I also filed for unemployment, which did not give me any funds after 3 weeks of going back and forth with them. It was taking forever for them to award me unemployment insurance.
Anyway, I got called for an interview. I had been praying for a job, and I got one! Not only did I receive two temporary assignments back to back and on the same day, I have a full-time regular position waiting for me when this assignment is completed! I fell down on my knees at the altar last Wednesday night at Bible Study in continuous praise after my pastor/prophet imparted to me that I would get a job, and it would pay 3 times more than the last one. The next morning (Thursday) I received the two temporary assignments (full-time), and Friday afternoon, I was told I was hired at the full-time regular job I applied for! I tell you God is good. My pastor always says to praise him in spite of your circumstance. That's exactly what I did! :clap:

Praise report: We decided in fall 2004 that we wanted to purchase a home. Now, I'd been praying for years regarding the style house I liked & areas I'd preferred to live in. I even prayed while driving down my favorite streets & neighborhoods. Well, in January I started praying & thanking God daily to place the right people in our path every step of the way, even the steps I wasn't familiar with but HE, of course, was. I praised & thanked him EVERYDAY. In February we started looking on sundays only. At our second open house we met who we knew instantly was going to be our R.E. agent and boy did she educate & work for us for sure! After viewing only 4 homes, we were lead to a house (on one of my fav roads I'd been praying while riding thru) that we had avoided until the end for no particular reason except it was a little pricey. Well, long story short, it's now our new home! It is huge, tons of property, back yard has a grass clearing before u walk into the little mini forest & the old owners who were like 80 kept the house well, the structure is good, it's in it's original condition which is great because we can do all the updates. We made an offer early March & closed April 7th. Our experience was smooth from beginning to end. We had NO PROBLEMS and learned SO MUCH! Although we'd heard of so many home-buying nightmares over the years, I knew God Almighty & him only would make this a positive experience & smooth process. Although my man panicked everytime there seemed a possibility of something going wrong, my faith only got stronger & remained unwavered because I know who is in control of my life. Faith starts with baby steps. I started out building my faith in the Lord with praying for small things like parking spots, non-traffic routes, getting to work on time & learned not to worry about things & placing my burdens in his hands. Now I look back & see how much my faith has grown. Jesus is my everything & the only one I can count on. He is beyond worthy to be praised!

hi ladies,
I wanted to give you all an update on my mother. I posted in the prayer request thread as she under went surgery. The doctors removed her right kidney yesterday and she lost only 3 tablespoons of blood (not alot at all, right :D )
The best part is the doctors did more testing a few days including a biopsy before the surgery to see if the cancer had spread or any infections in her uretha or bladder. And there were NO signs of any cancer!!!!! She will not need any chemo or radiation!!! :yay:
Surgery went well and she is resting comfortably. The doctors and nurses are making sure she's not it alot of pain. God is sooo good and has truly smiled down on my mother. Thank you ladies for the prayers and the support!!! God bless.

God is so Good!!! I am supposed to be attending a conference that I honestly can not afford to attend so I signed up to be a volunteer. I feel in my heart my attendance at this conference will be a huge breakthrough for me in my chosen field/career and so it's imperative I attend.
After weeks of not hearing anything I sent a follow up email and was told volunteers had been selected and notifications sent out to those who would be volunteers and to those who would not. I had received neither notification and told my contact so.
As soon as I told her, I immediately began praying to God that they had selected me as a volunteer and I that would receive notification stating such. A couple of hours later... I did! :clap:
Although they did not select me for the volunteer status that would enable me to attend free of charge or even at a discount,I still have a chance to do so (depending on how many hours I am actually used) therefore I am going to back to the throne on this situation and I know that God will move just as he has before!
I just wanted to thank God for getting me over the first hurdle!

I work in a gym, and I noticed one of the regular members hadn't been in one week. This is a guy that is normally in working out rain or shine 5 days/week. Now it's vacation time and I couldv'e just assumed he was away somewhere, but I got a sense that something may have been wrong. I saw him for a brief second yesterday as I was leaving but by the time I saw him he was out the door. Something said don't worry you'll see him tomorrow. Turns out he came in today and the same voice said talk to him, he was busy pumping iron so I just said hi and kept it moving (the men don't like to be interupted while lifting weight :look: Anyway a few minutes later he came up to me and was like check this out and there was a big scar across his throat. I asked him what happened and he told me that his dr. found a large lump on his thyroid which was operated on last week, and that was why he wasn't around. The dr. insisted that it was prob. cancerous so my friend was worried but he never said anything to me about it. But he said he feels great and after operating they realized that it WASNT malignant, he just got the news yesterday and today was his first day back at the gym. I feel like it was the Spirit telling me to talk to him, like I said in the summer most of the gym members aren't around as often due to vacation and working out in the nice weather outside. I recently made a choice to strengthen my committment to God, and have been hearing things from the Spirit more often. I was just really happy that he's okay :p

I thank God for when I truly have the faith of a mustard seed that I don't even have to tell the mountain to move because He'll do that too.
Chain of events:
1. I work until 7:30p and so I'm unable to attend midweek service (starts at 6:30)
2. After speaking to my church sister, I had to desire to be there midweek
3. Decided that I will cut out of the office right after my boss leaves to get there and get maybe 1hr of service in
4. Decided I didn't want to be deceitful and I'll just ask
5. I go in and ask my boss if I could come in a 1/2 hr early and leave 1/2 hr early
6. Boss says fine and I feel blessed
7. I need to work quite a bit of OT, so I bank some (don't submit) for when there's a drought
8. On the day to submit OT I say God will provide and submit all that I have pending
GOD STEPS IN:
9. Co-worker calls out and I'm asked to cover their shift...OT!
10. Boss so grateful that I was so willing to bail them out that I AM LEAVING AT 6P TOMORROW (Wednesday)
Guess where I'll be at 6:30?
God is good all the time and I LOVE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Every morning that I arise is a blessing, every night I lay my head upon my pillow to sleep is a blessing. I have been especially blessed with the gifts of family, shelter and provisions. Today, I went on an interview and was told I was one of the top candidates, that he'd interviewed. I praise the Lord for his goodness and ask his continued blessings in my life.

God is an awesome God. I recently lost my job, and although I haven't found a new job yet, my Lord has blessed me with a financial blessing of an extra $6,000. I am so blessed an fortunate, and I will continue to sing the praises of God Almighty.
ETA: I can tell you how much the Lord has blessed me. Today, I recieved a call back for a job I'm really interested in. I had applied over three weeks ago and hadn't heard anything. So when I talked to the lady from Human Resources, she said "Oh, the President of your company read the letter you sent and he is really interested in interviewing you." I don't have the job yet and I may not get it but, this just shows me that God has something planned for me. Glory to God!

This is my first praise report and I could write so much that I don't know where to begin. First and formost I want to thank that Almighty God for his covering hedge of protection for myself and my family. A couple of weeks ago, I had gotten paid and had a few hundred dollars left over that I was going to use to purchase some things that myself and my sons had been needing. So I get up to go to the laundromat and then go shopping. I had all three of my sons in the car and also my sister and my neice who are living with me.
I get to the store to buy supplies and while in the parking lot trying to park the car, my brakes go completely out!!! PRAISE THE LORD! I didn't hit anything!
So I gingerly go to my mom's house cause its the closest and I start calling people to find out what it would cost to get the brakes and rotors replaced. All the while, my mom's husband is saying, its saturday, you won't get into any car repair place today, just park the car and go home. I call a couple of places and get scared cause I only have 400.00, I have two weeks until payday, and they are quoting upwards of 400-450.00. The first place I call is the cheapest, they can take me immediately, and the cost is only 300.00!!
PRAISE GOD!
PS: The next day at church, two of my greatest angels who usher with me each hand me $100.00!
God is so good! I love you Lord! Thank you!

For time to time, I just think about how wonderul and gracious God has been to me. I know that I often fall short of his glory, but he has never forsaken me and is my strength and my rock. I am so blessed, because God has brought me to a different place in life. A place where I can truly appreciate the his grace and mercy. Just months ago, I'd lost a job, my health was suffering and had a dying family member. I am happy to say that although haven't found a full-time job, I am freelancing with a wonderful company and making more money than I made at my old job. But the best part is that I am no longer in a toxic environment. I was so stressed out that my mental/physical health was suffering, but now I am contented and happy and physically fine. And although my brother is still terminally ill, I feel like we are closer than we have been in year b/c before this we hadn't spoken for four years. I just want to testify and praise the lord for his loving kindness.

Very proud to report I have been planning on attending Howard University for the past two years and let my application lapse so I had to apply again for admission in Fall 2006. Well I received a letter letting me know I had been denied admission. Howard University was my plan A and I didn't exactly know what I would do next.
Well proud to say I received another letter on Tuesday and it states "Congratulations on your acceptance to Howard University." Now you know that was nothing but the Lord working miracles in my life.

Just wanted to praise the Lord with everything I have (and don't have) this morning. I am on a euphoric high just because I fell asleep last night with the goodness of the Lord on my lips.

I would like to share with you all about how God has blessed me over the past few months...
In May, I graduated from college with my Bachelor of Arts degree in Accounting.
In May, I got the opportunity to travel out of the country for the first time in my to Paris, France with students in my MBA program. God allowed me to have a safe trip to and from.
Last week, God blessed me with another job where I will be making more money. This position is a temp-to-hire position which will give me the opportunity for me and the employer to try each other out.
I GIVE GOD ALL THE PRAISE!
Go 'head pooh bear!
My praise is that I have been praying for someoe for over 10 years to come to the Lord and he did not know I was praying for him.
Well Guess What he told me 2 weeks ago ???? (Zeal jumping up and down)

I have to tell everyone how He has answered prayers in our circumstance. My husband's cousin has very recently been diagnosed with cancer. He has been hospitalized and has lost a lot of weight and his stomach swelled up like a ballon as the cancer was eating his insides. We prayed and we prayed. He already begun speaking on his specific wishes for his funeral arrangements as the doctors only gave him days to live.
But God....Changed his situation. The doctors are calling it a miracle. He was somehow strong enough to endure chemotherapy and now the swelling is going down and his strength is returning more and more every day.
My husband is so happy about the answered prayer and his spirit is uplifted. He is currently going through a very difficult situation that we constantly pray about. We know that God is faithful and very soon I pray that I will be posting his answered prayer on this praise report thread.

I want to give God all the praise and glory for He is truly worthy and able. For the last couple years I've been working on some class prerequisites in order to enter graduate school. I've worked thru a pregancy and illness to do what I needed to do. Well on Saturday I received my acceptance letter. In January I will begin gruduate school and will be working towards a Masters degree in Anesthesiology. This is a competitive and challenging program but I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Once I finish this my financial situation will do a total 360. Thanks and praise to the Lord who has given us the ability to obtain wealth. Now I'm believing God for finances to come in so I can pay for school and be able to care for my family as I will not be working for 2 1/2 yrs. He didn't bring me this far to leave me hanging so I will just stand fast in the faith. Our God is an awesome God.

This is my first praise report and I think I should praise him more often for even the littlest things He does in my life :)
I want to give God ALL the Glory and ALL the Praise first of all for second chances and for forgiveness. I want to praise Him because even when I wasn't giving him the place He righteously deserves in my life He still protected me.
And today I want to say Praise the Lord for he has blessed with a job, at a moment when I wasn't really expecting it. Thank you Father God for the opportunity to work in a field that is of interest to me, even if it's only as an office assistant.
Blessed Be The Name of Our Lord Almighty, He is Truly Worthy to be PRAISED :)

I will give just a little history. I am new to this particular forum,I grew up going to church but as an adult I strayed I always have prayed but as far as my beliefs I had so many doubts. In the recent months I have been getting the feeling that God has been calling me and I have been listening.
Story:
In October 05 I got hired permanently for the college I both work for and attended and was so grateful to be able to have earned my AA degree and to be able to work to earn a living for my sons. Needless to say as time moved on I was very unhappy in this position but didn't know what to do because of time limitations that kept me from searching for a more positive position that I can grow with. So I prayed and prayed for help, for direction from God .Well about 2 1/2 weeks ago I could tell something was going on and it had to do with me. I was called into the office by my supervisor and told that I would be transferring to another campus in another department doing something totally different. I was so taken aback by this mainly because that is not how this place works they don't transfer. I knew God was gonna bring me through this but it is never how you imagine it to be. So here I am 2 weeks later in my new position which so far I am extremely happy about I am gettting to learn alot, doing many different things and serve people on a regular basis. I am still so surprise about how it happened. I had to share this with you all. I am grateful for this forum i really need the inspiration that I have been getting from just lurking in my free time because I have been using what I have been reading. Thank you all

THANK YOU GOD!
Ok, I have been depressed and disappointed because my son, who has a history of hearing and speech problems was discontinued from special education. This year, I have talked to his teacher at least 3 times a week about his poor progress. The school deemed he was age appropriate last year yet this year he's failing everything except art and gym.
I have been praying that God would open up doors so I could help him since the school is turning a deaf ear. I tried to get him in a tutoring program but they were full.
Yesterday while doing some research, I happened upon some new information and called a local hospital for help. Well needless to say, he now has appointments at a very well known hospital in the area that has a new center for children with learning disabilities, and an appointment for Occupational therapy to help with his writing skills.
Then, last night the tutoring program called and said they had an opening for him and he is there now today!
Thank you Lord for answering prayers!

As many of you may remember, I requested prayer for a friend and her unborn child. Well....Baby Noel was born on Thursday 12/28/06 at 1pm. He weighed 6lbs 9oz and his lungs were fully developed. Moms blood clot disappeared. Baby Noel did have to have surgery to connect his instestines and stomach, but the surgery went well and we are now praying that he will recover quickly and join his parents at home very soon. Thank you all for your prayers. God is great!

PRAISE THE LORD!!!!
My prayer for 2007 was that my outlook become more positive and that I stop worring about things and just give them to the Lord. I have had a really difficult 2006 and I never want to be that downtrodden again. So for the past 4 days of 2007 I have started each day with a smile and excitement over what I know that God has in store for me for the day. Well today, a co-worker (saved) walked by and said good morning as she usually does and said, you are doing something different, you have a glow!
It's the GLOW OF THE HOLY SPIRIT! I am finally moving out of the way and letting God do what he wants with me!
Don't laugh, but this is my praise report and it's very important to me.

PRAISE REPORT!
God is good!
A few weeks ago, my son had his initial appointment at a very good hospital to deal with his learning/health issues. I hadn't heard anything about the test results but I vowed to be patient and just give it to God in prayer. Yesterday when I get home I see a thick envelope from the hospital. My son was below average on EVERY test that they gave him, the therapist recommended to the school that he receive the special help that he was getting before, plus Speech therapy at the hospital and occupational therapy at the hospital, and this is just the first visit. We go back on Tuesday to address the health issues!
I am so happy, not that my son is behind, but that his needs will finally be addressed in the proper manner!
Thank you Lord!!!!!

My intent was to purchase a car with my tax refund, but I decided to pay off a lot of my smaller bills. But, today I found out that I am getting a rather large amount from Child Support for my Middle son!!!!!!!! This is after a rather hellish court date a couple of days ago in which I had to call on the name of Jesus after this man said all kinds of lies about me and called me out of my name. Thank you Jesus for answering prayers and providing ways when there seems to be none!!!!

God is Good. Sometime ago I posted a prayer request, I had gone for 8 interviews and hadn't got any job. Out of the blue this guy calls me and says "I got your resume from someone who interviewed you 2 months ago." He asked me to come for an interview on Monday. By Wednesday I was wearing a new suit and hot stilletos, sitting at my desk at my new job!!! Jesus is miracle worker. But as if that is not enough, when it came to determining what my pay scale would be, I assumed I would only get an entry level- intermediary range - but no, they are going to pay me 3 times more than I was earning before. I have two years work experience they will pay me the same as someone with 5 years experience!!! God has come through again. I am humbled by His mercy.

I Thank God for my child's pediatrician.
Thank God for my weight loss of 5 lbs..we have 10 lbs to go until I don't feel fat.
Praise God for answering my prayers about my hair growth. I felt so bad and depressed about my hair appearance which was very short, damaged, and not growing. Now it's growing gradually, healthier compared to before, and just looks better. He answered my prayers with LHCF. Thank you for these ladies whose tips I take, fotkis and journals I stalk, and messages I read. I never would've thought there would be a Christian Fellowship Forum on here, but i guess he answered my other prayer too which was to keep me close and let me be in fellowship with the body of christ. I had meant Church, but I had to sale my car and my church is not walking distance & no bus runs from my place to there on weekends. So this works for now and when I get my next car, I'll have two fellowships. which is great.
Praise God that my bills get paid, even if they get paid late.
Thank God for holding on to me and watching over me and never saying, "there's no place here for her kind." Where I be without your mercy and grace...
Thank God for all my loved ones.
Thank You Lord for answering prayers even if I had to wait on your answer sometimes. Then again--You're God, King of kings, why shouldn't I wait on you?
Thank You for all the wonderful gospel singers and their songs that remind me of who you are, what you are able to do, and how much you love me.
Thanks for creating beautiful me.;) Thanks that The bible tells me I am beautiful.
Let me stop. I am on a roll, but I need to pray and go on to sleep before sunrise. :lol:
I'm soo thankful that I got into graduate school with a full scholarship AND a cool stipend!

I believe in Jeremiah 29:11, His plans for me to prosper me and to give me HOPE and a future. I believe in Mark 11:24, that whatsoever I ask for in prayer, if I believe it, I SHALL have it.

I just had to give a testimony and a most high praise today.
Well, a few months ago I went to the emergency room because I was not feeling well and thought I would collapse if I didn't make it. I was there overnight and went through a series of tests, etc. I then felt sick a week later and went to another hospital for the same illness. At the first one, I was so scared because I just knew that the bill was going to be higher than what I could afford...I literally was in tears at reception because I was worried about it all (silly me yes but...).
Bills came. I was like ok. What was not covered would have to be paid out of pocket. Thousands of dollars worth to be paid. Well, one hospital has a financial aid program. I got together my paperwork, all sorts of statements, copies of all my hospital/doctor bills, etc. and met with the lady in person to plead my case to have some of it forgiven. She looked at me, at my paperwork, and in less than one minute she said, it will be forgiven 100%. That's right....$6,311.47 forgiven on the spot! I was so shocked that I am still like....really? I questioned it not and ran out of there before she could change her mind.
GOD IS SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD TO ME!!!
HE IS WORTHY OF ALL MY PRAISE :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy
ETA: HE also allowed me to get a six-month extension on a companion certificate that was about to expire in June. Now, I can pay for one ticket anywhere in the US and have someone fly with me for free...and I have until December to pick that lucky person. PRAISES ALL AROUND!

I already have testimonies since this post 2 days, my breakthrough is SO real its mind blowing!! I claimed $1000 this morning by end of the week, it sounded crazy to the human mind but I was operating in a spiritual realm and this afternoon I was able to get more than I wanted, I just saved thousands off CC bill.
I was able to offer my young 15yr cousin at least 3page advice on using his talented art skills into a big time business. This was all part of my request for breakthrough, to affect all aspects of my life. I dont just want to receive God's blessings, I want to be able to bless others and for others to look at me in awe, and then come to see God's glory in me

4 wounded in East Baltimore shooting
Gunman 'began firing toward crowd,' police say; no suspects identified
By a Sun Reporter
Originally published June 20, 2007, 6:54 AM EDT
City police reported no suspects today in a shooting last night that left four people wounded when authorities said a gunman opened fire on a crowd of people on an East Baltimore street.
The incident occurred about 11:15 p.m. in the 1500 block of N. Patterson Park Ave., a block from Collington Square School and a newly refurbished playground.
Police said a car slowly drove the block, heading north, and stopped in front of a rowhouse at 1535 N. Patterson Park Ave. Police said a man sitting in the right, rear seat got out and "began firing toward the crowd."
The gunman, police said, ran up the street shooting as the car slowly followed. He then jumped into the car, which sped away and turned left onto East Federal Street.
Police said a 26-year-old man was shot in the right side and lower leg, another 26-year-old man was shot in the left thigh, a 25-year-old man was hit in the right foot and a 48-year-old man was wounded in the left hand.
Descriptions of the gunman and car were not immediately available.
On June 11, Baltimore Ravens players and hundreds of volunteers led by a non-profit built a playground at the school's park to give children something to do other than hang on the streets. The project was completed in a day.
This shooting happened directly in front of my son's (little Malcolm) aunt's house. The two 26 year olds that were shot were Malcolm's cousins. Malcolm was just in that house playing with loads of other kids HOURS before the shooting occurred. There is a day care center in this house! Never forget how God covers you at all times, even when you don't realize it.
PRAISE THE LORD!!!

What a blessing to see so many sisters in Christ praising Him for things He's already done and things to come. My testimony is that I got fired from my job almost two months ago, I have never traveled so much in my life without a job. I knew at the beginning of this test that God would reveal himself as my provider and boy has he, my bills are paid and I am TRULY having the time of my life, to top it off, a play that I co-directed in February has been chosen to be read at the National Black Theatre Festival ( www.nbtf.org (http://www.nbtf.org)) which will expose me to so many opportunies in theatre, I am headed to Winston-Salem , NC by the provision of God. Remember ladies, Where God guides He provides so don't fret if He's calling you out of your comfort zone, He's got work to do in us all and it may not always be comfortable.
One more thing He did was cause someone who had torn me apart to genuinely apologize and now we're friends, I never thought in a million years I would even want to speak to this man again, but serve a God who specializes in reconcilliation.
I feel like I love you all already ,our stories have connected us!

When I first started reading this thread I thought to myself "One day I am going to post my praise report"...and then I thought to myself...why not praise Him now. Sure my life is a mess, my husband and I don't have jobs, live in his grandmother's basement, don't have means for income, we are dirt broke but that doesn't change who He is and what He said He would do. I am praising God right now because I am expecting a blessing! I know that God is going to provide for me and my family. Things may get rougher for us but he is a God that is true to His word and I am standing on my faith and believing in His word. I am believing that He is going to bless my husband with a job. I am believing and expecting this! I am believing that he is going to bless me with a part time job and pay for my school next semester!
I tell you ladies. Its something about living in expectancy that lifts your spirits. It changes how you see things, it changes your heart, mind and soul. I am expecting God to do a mighty work in my life! So I am praising him right NOW because I know its done!
Amen!!!!:D

All I can say is that I wanted and needed a job. I prayed for it in Jesus name even before I ever had the interview last week. Well I made a call and found out that I start working next week. I have actually really tried to think back and see if I can recall a time where a prayer request has been completely unanswered, and I just can not recall any prayer request that has not been answered. He may not have answered right when I expected/wanted Him to but He did answer or send an answer sooner or later or much later in some cases. His track record is excellent, lol.
"Thank YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!" You are Who You Are and You keep Your Word.
O Lord Jesus, You said, "Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you."

I just got to say Somebody Give Him a Praise!!!!!!!!
I had accidently hit a car when i was backing out of my parking space from work last week, i had meet with the lady and agreed to pay the estimate to fix her headlight and rim of the car (like 2006/7 nissan altima), i am in a tight spot right now as a single parent and my soon to be ex husband let me know this is my problem not his. I figured since i am a student i will take out a student loan to cover it as well as other expense i cannot afford to pay on my own any longer, story short that same lady called me out today at work and said her husband said for me not to worry about it and that they are christians and feel like they should try to extend mercy, i don't know her as a matter of fact i had just met her the day before briefly. Thank YOU GOD!!!

God is truly amazing.
My honey and I got married he lived in Ohio and I in California for years we were trying to hear from God where he wanted us to live.
Well, we really stepped out on faith. My husband moved to California no job prospects but major faith in God. In two months he has found a job less than 2 miles from our home and he is making more than he was in Ohio.
We kept praying that His will be done and we would be fine with it. As usual His way is not only better but the best.
Thank you Lord So Much!!!

Praise God for setting me free from a job that was so stressful and negative..He is good and faithful and I know HE will take me somewhere better. I also thank God for being faithful in getting through exams that were so overwhelming to me that I never thought I would pass them esp with a job that was so demanding.

Praise the Lord:
Recently the "burden" (financial, stress, dealing with a child with special needs, teenager, toddler) all were getting me really down. I attempted to get help from my youngest son's father and he basically blew me off. I was feeling really depressed and hurt, but God sent an angel to me, someone who hardly even knows me and she just jumped in and blessed me. GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS!!!! I love Him so much, for who he is. His comfort, peace and joy surpass all understanding. Thank you JESUS!
Happy HOLY-Days to everyone!

I would like to post about the wonderful blessing I have received recently. And give HIM praise because I know its not me doing this.
I was not able to live on campus last fall due to financial reasons, and deceided to apply for a position as a R.A. which would give me free rent in exchange for my services. Well, I applied in Dec and didn't get it because I missed the g.p.a requirement by 2 points :perplexed (so I thought).
During this time I had been working for a major oil and gas company for almost a 1 1/2 as their "college intern" part-time, when I made my year they gave me 1 dollar raise, as opposed to that standard 25-50cents.
Then a position opened up our department and they offered it to me. This position will almost double my salary, give me lots of benefits and help me pay for school and I am only 22. It can also spring board me into various other career areas as well. I just feel really blessed right now, because these doors have opened up for me. Thanks for listening ladies.

At the beginning of the year, our church entered into a month of fasting and consecration and today, 30 days later, I am so happy to report that my Mom QUIT SMOKING COLD TURKEY! My mom has been "trying" for years to quit and the Lord finally did it! I am so happy for her. God is sooo good!

For your mom, Crlsweetie:
And Father God in the name of Jesus, we praise you that the thought of a cigarette brings such a stench to her nostrils that it repels her from ever wanting a cigarette ever again....She is totally set free from that and any other bondage in Jesus's name, Amen and Amen...!

I began a Daniel Fast on December 28, 2007.
No sweets, sugar, bread, rice, meat, cheese, dairy and I drank nothing but water and 100% fruit juice.
GOD IS FAITHFUL and yesterday was the last day of my fast! I made it 31+ days! I can't believe how God worked during this fast. I am so grateful to Him for all that He has done. I am continually amazed at His wonders!

Praise the Lord, everybody!!!!!
I thank the Lord for just continuing to encourage my heart despite the things I've been experiencing & worrying about (grad school, work, personal life, His will/my future, low self esteem, etc.). I've been struggling with finding my self and purpose while trying to hold things down in my life. Just when it became too much, I decided to turn to God. I have been praying with a prayer partner three times per week, which has encouraged me to connect to God in a more personal, profound way and I've been reading a great devotional in the meantime. It has been encouraging me to remember that we are not fighting flesh and blood, but that we are more than conquerors through Him. We can call on the name of the Lord, sing and meditate on Him and speak the Word on God (Jesus) in every situation, which has given me much peace & hope.
And (sorry for the long post--He is sooo good!!!!), I had my final performance plan review with my employer today and all this time I'm thinking I'm not where I want to be and my productivity is slipping because I'm unsure of myself at times--low and behold--I was blessed with an exceptional rating along with a performance award and a promotion!!!!!! My employer has been very pleased with my work, but I was thinking otherwise.
THANK YOU JESUS---YOU knew what was around the bend and yet even before all of that You spoke to and encouraged my heart when I needed it the most by reminding me of Your love, help and protection over me.
Please continue to keep us in Your presence and encourage the women represented here--bless them, Lord and may Your name be continually praised!!!!!
Be encouraged ladies!!! He loves you all!!!!!

I'm still struggling with doubt mostly cuz of my fear of understanding wrong...or taking something to be from God when it isn't. But tomorrow (Sunday) will be the first Sunday I've tithed since the summer...and I'm sitting here like I feel a real joy in my heart...I can't wait for tomorrow to come so I can put my envelope into the offering basket. And I know that it's not a matter of pride. It's not the blessings I'll recieve...but I'm finally really on track to getting right with God...I could go on but I don't want to type that much and I don't think everyone wants to read it all.

Today at church I was talking to my fake aunt who is a assemblywoman...well her treasurer offered me a internship or a chance to work in the office with them (My major is accounting and my minor is finance so that's really good) She said to just call whenever I was ready to needed to come work. And that I could get credit for my college working there. I only talked to her for a minute if even... PRAISE GOD...I could only sing while I was walking to my car...I'm really understanding the if you worship God with a clean heart that the desires of your heart would be poured out onto you

I am thanking you for all the things you have done and for all the thing not done yet but will be done according to your will. You have provided and given to me so plentifully. And I thank you so much.
You are awesome and my beginning and my end.
This week I will be moving to Georgia with no job on the horizon with my kids and fiancee. But God has already told me that everything is taken care and I am walking out on faith. I am thanking God today for my job that is awaiting me, the home my family will preside, the God loving/Christian daycare provider that will care for my kids, and wonderful job for my fiancee. I know all our needs will be met, because God is in charge and in control.
I thank the day I opened my heart and my life to HIM.

A few weeks ago, I put in for a reclassification (basically a promotion, but based on work I am already doing) and almost IMMEDIATELY I received word from HR that not only was my reclass approved, but that I was eligible for a full grade HIGHER than I requested! HALLELUJAH! :yay: AND, I get retroactive pay for the pay difference going back to JULY 2007!!!

My friend moved it to a parking space for me today, and when I went to start it it cranked right up as usual. Not only that but my friend bought me a battery and the check engine light that was on went off.
For that I would like to say thank ya :)

After a long and hard semester I have done well. I was attending 2 full-time schools and still working 20 hours a week. I came out of the university with a 3.3 GPA which I am grateful for and with the other class that I was attending at a community college, I have passed the CNA course; skills and practical test with flying score. I give it all to the LORD, I claimed it in the name of Jesus before, b/c I knew that it was mine. I also received a job at the nursing home that I was doing my clinicals at which is paying very well. But the Lord God didnt stop there, he let me receive a call from a major hospital that I have been trying to get with since 2006. And for that and much more I am a believer. God wont fail you, he will do as he said. Just have faith and believe. PATIENCE is the key!

I thank God for everything. For the roof over my head, a job to go to, a car that works perfectly fine, money in my pocket, food. I also thank Him for my sense of style (don't judge me y'all). I just like great pieces -- nice handbags, coats, shoes. I love signature pieces that just make your look.
I also thank God for my hair. A lot of women are losing their hair, have never had long hair, don't know what to do with their hair. I love my hair. I love the length and I love the versatility. I love that I can do my own hair. I can perm it, rollerset it, blow it out, etc. I just love it.
I love my friends. They keep it real with me. When I need a dose of reality, they give it freely. I try to do the same. I thank God that my family wants to protect me from this cruel world, but every now and then, the rules of the game have to be taught.
I thank God for my yearning. It is times when I yearn for more that I seek out my heart's desire. I know that right now, I want more for my life. I want more. I sense a change and I thank God for leading me. Even when I am kicking and screaming, God drags me through and shows me that where He is moving me to is better than where I was before. I need that. I thank God for that.
I thank God for being patient with me. He loves me more than I love myself.

I thank GOD for his Grace and Mercy that I have a chance to wake up every morning. I also would like to thank him for truly seeing me as he designed me to be. I thank him for weeding out people who I considered closed friends, but they betrayed me deeply. Lastly, I would like to thank GOD for being an "on time GOD"..without him I would not be able to purchase my house and meet my deadline to close on 9/30. Also, thank you GOD for bringing a wonderful Realtor and Mortgage Banker into my life...they were truly a Team in bringing my dream of homeownership to a reality.

Praise the Lord... I am on my way to work! It's with a temp company and it's temp to hire as a case worker assistant for a home health service... but it's better than making zero dollars an hour. I am so blessed! After 9 months of searching for work, I finally found a company that didn't tell me "You're overqualified, we can't hire you... we can't afford you." The devil is a liar!
A week ago, my unemployment ran out but I didn't get sad... I knew that God was going to make a way. I kept praying, kept calling... and he answered my prayer with a ram in the bush.
I want to thank you all for your prayers. This job is not where I want to be right now but it is a stepping stone for things to come!

I just want to thank god for never leaving my side and always coming through for me on time. Even when it seemed all hope was gone he was there for me. Last month was extremely hard for me I had a death in the family and my relationship was in turmoil. The guy I was with was not a christian and although I loved him deeply he was leading me down the wrong path. But im thankful that god brought me through and allowed me to see that he wasn't the right guy for me. The right guy was by my side all along. Im thankfull that god brought me through the greif of losing a loved one and I pray that god contiues to be with my aunt and grandmother and other family members who are still in mourning.

Dear Lord, I want to thank you now for my mothers healing. She went in the hospital on Wednesday to have exploratory surgery ( a simple procedure, I thought) and stopped breathing on the table. They immediately administered CPR to revive her but she still remains unconscious. She is getting better daily. I thank you now Lord for her totally healing? Ladies please pray for my mothers complete healing. AMEN!

I want to thank God for everything he does for me.
Ever had the impression that your prayer was answered and handed on a silver platter?
Ok, I know this seems odd. But for over 6 years I always wanted to go back to school. I prayed and prayed. Now, nearly 7 years later. I know its seems like a long time. I have to admit the timing could not be more perfect than now! Within those 7 years of waiting, I was able to be by my family's side. I even saw one of my parents pass away in front of my very eyes. God gave me strength. We manage to surmount incredible financial obstacles. I did 3 years without having a job.
Everything seems to be falling in place. I have some exams to complete before applying to the school. I found all the resources with ease. I needed a software to help me with the editing of my essays. It usually costs 100$ I got it for 24 $.There are many more things, coincidences that I have witnessed. Its seems that things are being served to me on a silver platter. At times I wonder if I was meant to receive it. Has anyone experienced something like this? How did things turn out? Any regrets?

I just want to say that God is good. . .all the time. I have been struggling with the idea of my unemployment for some time now although God has been making a way for me the whole time and keeping my family and I comfortable. I struggled with accepting that he just takes care of me because he wants to. I felt the need to do something in return and it was eating me up(that worldly outlook is a hard and bad habit to break).
I had been feeling like I was missing something. There was an emptiness that I felt and I couldn't seem to fill it. I've been saved so I thought maybe I was either doing something wrong or looking in the wrong place to fill that void. I tried different angles to approach God hoping that I would come up with the right one.
Last week I had a breakthrough and God told me that all he wanted was for me to just spend time with him. Talking, sharing, just being myself with him and building the father daughter relationship that he created me for. I was like Ohhhhhhh. I hadn't even realized that rather than being in relationship with God, I was just placing orders and leaving my tips for him.
To make a long story short, since that day, I have been spending time with God in more ways than just praying. He is a part of my family. Not just the creator of it.
So many other things have been opened up to me and to top it all off, I got comfortable with God just taking care of me and trusting that even though my last unemployment check would be on Monday(2/9/09) For some reason, I wasn't worried about the uncertainty. I knew God would pull something out of his bag, just like he always does, right in a nick of time, just before I begin to panic and resort to some bad decisions.
Well wouldn't you know that God made a way out of no way. I got a call this evening from a temp service that I work with. I had interviewed for a position a couple of weeks ago but another candidate got the job. Well, the other candidate isn't there so I got the job. I start on Monday 2/9/09. Isn't that something! There will be no lapse in my income. There will be no time of uncertainty. No famine, no heatless nights, and no candles burning in my house. God made a way.
He made a way when I let go and just stopped trying to help him to help me. I stopped trying to rationalize with him what I needed and the best way to go about it, I stopped trying to figure out what he would do to make a way for me.
To top it all off, in the mail today I got a check for 240.00. I had been expecting a check but didn't know how much it was. This too is a blessing!!!

too many evidences of His love and existence all around
us... beginning with the fact that we woke up on this side
of the ground!
Thanks again,

I am just giving a Praise report b/c God is so AWESOME and his word is so true! AMEN!
I just wanted to thank God for moving in my life. He is such an awesome and faithful God! I recently found out that my office was going to be relocating. I spoke with my husband about it and of course, he was against moving. I totally understood since he was the primary bread winner. So after I received the news, I must admit I was nervous about looking for another job. I knew that things were rocky in the economy and I had been on this job for almost 6 years. WELL LET ME TELL YA......The regional vice president came down to meet with me. He told me that he understood me not being able to relocate and said that he wanted to do whatever possible to keep me on board. He asked me how I felt about working from home. Oh my goodness! This was just unbelievable. I almost cried right in front of him. God stepped in and worked it out for me. I am currently in the process of making the transition to work from home. Talk about extraordinary favor! God is good!!!!

How's your weightloss journey going?
Well, it's going...lol! I just recently prayed about that too. I've gotten back on track. No more excuses! I didn't know how to balance work, school, home and exercise. I created me a little handy dandy schedule and so far it's been a big help. I feel confident that I will reach my weight loss goals this year!

I'm crying ..in tears today ..remembering ...2007 I was in landlord tenant court ..not because I was a bad person...but with all the hurt I'd had with my dad's illness and death ..hard as I tried
I simply was not earning enough for my high rent and it had accrued to over 4500 dollars.... by the grace of God with artists grants specifically for artists/writers in trouble... I was able to raise that money and keep the landlord from seizing my apartment but I had to pay on time for a year or risk a holdover
when they can seize your apartment even if you do have money to pay delayed rent
I was in such fear
Today....it is Feb 27...the landlord just slipped the March Rent bill under my door..I wrote out a check for 1340.00 while happily listening to U2 and in an hour when I go out for errands..I will pay the rent on time ..before it is due knowing rent through summer is assured with work of my heart that is paying me NOW
All praise be to God
Thank you God Thank you Thank you

I want to thank God for hearing my prayers. Things at work are getting better and something happened earlier that I am convinced is a miracle. PRAISE GOD!!!!!!!!!!!
I know when the time is right to leave this place HE will set up something good for me. I have no doubts.
Thank you Lord for my wonderful, wonderful, wonderful husband. I cant even tell you how blessed I am for God to send me this man. I am awed by the Lord's generosity for finding the right person for me (I come with a lot of baggage).
Thank you Lord God. Thank You!

The Lord is faithful, so faithful. Praised be His name. When we are faithless, He is yet faithful, for He cannot deny His own character.
I am so thankful to You Lord for Your persistence in loving me and keeping me as Yours, even as I have allowed the heart's distractions to eclipse my vision of You. But You reign as King and I pray that You would be lifted up as God and King--the great Lord--in all our hearts this day. Amen.

Last week was a trying one for me. I never sought after the face of the living God like I did in prayer, worship, and praise last week.
Thank you Lord for always keeping me and answering my prayers! My life is not mine but yours. I lay it before you.
Your blessings are undeserved, and I humbly thank you for them all. I love you!

Last week when I went to the oncologist, the doctor said the most recent tumors were gone and that there were others, older ones, that were shrinking. I knew I couldn't feel them any more, but the tests confirmed what I was thinking, that they were gone. The doctor was so excited. I love it when the doctors and nurses even are amazed at how God heals my body.
Thank you Jesus for bringing the father of my future kids into my life.

A few weeks ago on a whim I sent my DH a note that I found on this board about an opportunity. I cannot find the thread anymore, but he really took it and ran with it. So much so that I was shocked.
He called me yesterday to tell me he got his first appointment. He is so excited. They said if he did a good job they would send him other work.
I just wanted to come in here and say God is really good. Just so amazing. This is not something I expected my husband to be interested in much less to pursue with such vigor. We have been having a rough time. I am looking for work, and the Lord has really sent us a ray of light in such dark times.
God is good! He really is!

My SO and I had bible study over the phone yesterday and we'll be doing it again next week! I thank God for this awesome opportunity to help get a soul back in relationship with God. I pray that God will bless our sessions and reveal Himself to him and more to me too as well as we seek Him and get to know more about Him. I pray that God blesses our relationship and helps us to love Him more and put Him first in all we do. Thank you Lord for sending him into my life and I pray that we continue to grow in You and also together as friends and partners.I pray that we build a relationship that would be pleasing in Your sight, in Jesus's name. Amen.

I put this in the prayer request thread
Please pray for my sister and I. Her company just reduced her hours and I'm unemployed. I only receive money from school and now my school is trying to dismiss me from school. It's my only income.
God has answered this prayer. My sister is now back to full time (40 hours) at her job.
Thank you JESUS!!!

Oh my goodness. I cannot believe how long it's been since I have posted in this thread! I am so wrong, because God has TRULY blessed me beyond measure. I couldn't even tell it all. He has blessed me with a true love that I have NEVER experienced before in my life! I am so happy to have found a Godly man! And he was RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME ALL ALONG! We have been friends for over 5 years, but things changed after he suffered a serious injury. I am so blessed!!!! My children know and love him and he loves and respects them too. Thanks be to GOD for this GREAT and MARVELOUS thing He has done! :reddancer:

God is no shorter than His word!!!!
I was listening to gospel driving into work this morning. I remembered Romans 8:28 "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." I have been praying about my work situation and my mom has been in agreement with me.
I just got a call at my desk from my manager who told me I have been promoted, effective 01Sep09. I am so blessed and in tears. I thank Him. :cry:
I placed a prayer request in the Prayer Request thread about an exam I had to take today and .....
I PASSED MY QUALIFYING EXAM. WHOPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
Big Thanks to all who prayed with me :yep: Man, I had sooo many people praying for me even if the exam was in Japanese I'd still pass. Prayer works!
Thank you Jesus and....I love you too :drunk:. Thanks for telling/reminding me of that today right before I took my quals :blush3:.

I was on a 40 day fast from negative thinking, which are inspirational emails that are sent from Pastor Gregory Dickow from Life Changers.
Before starting this fast, I was very depress everything in my life was going wrong. I was in the CF one day and I happen pass a thread talking about fasting from wrong thinking (I don't remember who started the thread). I clicked the link and everyday for 40 days I receive this emails.
I wasn't expecting much, but let me tell you, those emails CHANGED my life. I never been so positive in my life, my faith, prayer life, everything has increased. I feel the moment my thinking started to change, the doors of opportunity just opened (although not in every area of my life...well not yet anyways). My viewpoint on certain things have changed.
But more importantly, my trust in God is at a higher level than its ever been before. For that I'm praising God.
