THROUGH IT ALL

Through it all, Through it all I’ve learnt to trust in Jesus, I learnt to trust His WORD.

         The sung words of this song ministered to me on one of the valley experiences of my life and I can say it is my personal testimony.

           I pray today for ALL who are struggling in difficult times.   HE IS ABLE AND will lift you up and carry you forward.

            An encounter with an elderly lady who sat beside me on a seat, has inspired me.     She knew me and her face was familiar.

She used to travel everywhere on a red and yellow motorscooter.

          She went interstate.

          She said “My scooter was smashed by a hit and run driver several years ago and I lay on the highway unsure if I would die there.

            I offered up a prayer to my Lord. “Father if I am to die, Help me to trust You to lead me home.   If I am to live help me to trust You to be beside me on the recovery journey,

             They had to remove my leg and replace it with a rod.  I called my new leg Rodney and with God’s enabling we went through many months of intensive rehab.

                “See if you can tell which leg is Rodney” she joked and then she began to dance.   

               A senior citizen dancing on the street was amazing enough but no-one could ever imagine that one of her legs was not real.  Praise God for His journey with her.  

                Praise and thanks to Our God of the Impossible who calls us all to TRUST HIM.   TRUST ONLY HIM,

              A-men

       Journey well beloved and Stand firm in FAITH in Our Saviour, His Presence with us and His WORD.

About Faye

I m a wife, mother and grandmother. I have always enjoyed writing even from an early age. My book Beyond the Ashes has been written as a labour of love. All the characters are real to me and their story needed to be told. As a Christian my desire is to write General Fiction stories about real people but Hope and a desire for 'better' will always be part of the journey. I have had several short stories published over the years and moderate success in writing competitions. I realized as I was thinking today (30/01/15) that perhaps I should add here that I have had life experiences of many valley times but also many mountain top experiences. I can understand and be beside anyone who finds their life in tatters because I have 'been' there. Of course as I have got older as well there have been the added sorrows of losing not only older family members but also one by one finding the dearest of friends and the ones of greatest support and care also dying. On the site of rich mountains has been my certainty of the value of marriage and how grateful I am that after loss and sadness I made a happy and long-lasting marriage commitment. The one who was my best friend back then is still my best friend 45 years later. Beyond the Ashes touches upon the POWER of LOVE when folk can forget about their own personal 'feelings' and reach out in LOVE to a desperate and broken person.
