A good friend, and sister in Christ, sent me this link to a short but very powerful video. I also have it posted on Gold Star Dads. I don't know who put this together originally nor do I know when or where it was filmed. All I know is they did a tremendous job of showing how powerful God's Love can be in your life, and for some who view it, this short skit could be life changing. I hope you enjoy it. |
THIS IS SO AMAZING! iI am absolutely blown away by the power of God. I still have goosebumps!

I am an Evangelical Christian - My Faith in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the most important element of my being. As an Evangelical I believe in the fundamentals of Christianity, i.e. the foundational beliefs that Jesus Christ died for my sins and that if I repent and believe He can, will, and in fact has saved me. Inherent in that belief; is that the Bible is God's Word and without error in the original manuscripts. That fundamental doctrine is what it means to be an Evangelical Christian.
It also means that I believe the Bible, from Genesis 1.1 “In the beginning”, to the final “Amen” at the end of Revelation, every word from the prophets, every proclamation of the angels and every miracle. If I can’t believe all of the Bible then I can’t trust in Jesus’ promise of my salvation. I know that sounds like an impossible task to some people, very black & white. I’ll be honest, it sounded that way to me at one time. I struggled with it for a long time until I finally surrendered. After I accepted Jesus’ gift, the Holy Spirit opened my eyes and the fog was lifted from my heart. I saw the world differently, the way God intended for me to see it; a world created by a benevolent, loving God for his children, that’s you & me brother!
Martin Luther King Jr. once said that, "Faith is taking the first step in the dark even when you don't see the whole staircase." None of us can see life’s whole staircase, and sometimes that’s scary.
I do know this, without Jesus in my life I don't think I would have been able to cope with the stress of this last year. God’s love for me and my knowledge of His love for my son have kept me sane. The Holy Spirit gave me protection from the sometimes evil, often self-destructive thoughts and dreams that flooded my life almost daily those first few weeks, surely Jesus saved my life more than once.
There were times in the months that followed Rhys’ death where sorrow, doubt, shame, anxiety, every negative human emotion you can imagine nagged at my daily thoughts and nightly dreams. But without fail, Gods grace and love carried me over those terrible times. His Holy Spirit settled my anxiety, and filled my mind and heart with visions and memories of my life with Rhys.
I don't know where you stand in your personal walk with God, but I do know He loves you and is waiting for you to make the choice. Even if you have made some bad choices in the past, He still wants you with Him. You only need to ask Him to come into your life.
