  • 🕊️🤗

    I remember that Dr.Brown came to our congregation in N.Israel Haifa

    and in his testimony he described a situation that GOD was looking down to him and saying

    “that one sniffing glue next to the truck “

    I chose to debate the rabbi’s

    and then I thought….. could You use me ?

    26 years of addiction to heroine 17 years IV use !

    ….. the answer was yes 🕊️🙌🏼💜

    15 years with The Lord now…….. and The Lord is still renovating me on HIS ROCK 🪨

    Blessings from MtCarmel

And when I heard your radio podcast on AFR (American Family Radio) I was so encouraged! I have been in lots of crisis. I’m trying to get my family to go back to church, and I’ve been struggling. After what my mother had went through in the church she use to go to, She doesn’t want anybody to go to church. But I know that Jesus Christ will pull me through this crisis... more
