My father was a man that never feared the devil.
Neither did he fear death, because he knew that he was secure in his faith in Jesus Christ and his eternal salvation.

I on the other hand tend to over think things, the result of this is an overwhelming desire to know how things work.
The mechanics of an idea are far more important to me than they should be.
I was taught to ask why and how.
My mom always used to say to me “yes but, Granny but” she was referring to the way her mother would always reply to a statement with “Yes but” guess it was the Celtic Scottish and channel island blood that made her that way.
I on the other hand seem to have been born with a prophetic streak and a Celtic foresight gift.
My dad would be fast asleep and he would begin speaking to God in his sleep pretty soon the whole house would be woken by our father fighting with the devil and praising the Lord for a victory in the spiritual realm.
The house would shake with the power of the spiritual battle.
A brave fearless warrior was my dad, he was not well educated or even well spoken. But he knew how to get the message across with straight forward simple words.
He prayed all the time and it did not matter where he was or with who.
He was the prayer warrior in shorts and sandals.
I learned from an early age from my father that you cannot lie to God neither can you convince God or bargain with him, His Yes is Yes, His no is no and God’s later teaches you pacients.

As I have aged I have seen many miracles and the Lord blessings often on a daily basis.
Right now we as a family are been carried by Jesus.
You might ask in what I mean by this and I will tell you.
When life becomes too much and we as Christians think we are alone, under attack and are suffering and the Lord is far of and busy with other things. We tend to look for someone to blame and as things get worse we eventually feel Luke asking why God? Why are you doing this to me?
What we at the time fail to realise is Jesus is in the front line trench fighting that battle for you.
He is carrying you. When there is no money for food we need to have faith that the Lord will provide.
And when this does not happen which is often in our house we make a plan that the wee burrns eat something and do not go to bed hungry even if we have to.
Pride & a lack of empathy are the reasons we fail
The Bible says when speaking of the followers of Christ that they held all things I’m common and broke bread daily.
The book of James I believe talks of Christians asking for help and others been admonished for not applying the practice application of their faith for if a Brother asks for food and his fellow Christians say to him God bless you but do nothing they do not have the love, mind and empathy or Christ.
What Father gives his children a stone if the children ask for bread.
The true way of the cross is the practical application of the Love of Christ.
The real question is when did the carpenter born in a stable tell his followers that miracles, signs and wonders needed to stop.
And when the servants of the church become great princes living in great palatial houses.
When did holding all things in common become serve me brother for I am your superior and I will bless you.
WHILE THE TRUE CHRISTIANS LIVING IN THE HOVELS LIVE MUCH CLOSER TO GOD.
RIGHT NOW WE AS A FAMILY ARE GOOD MG THROUGH SOME VERY SERIOUS STUFF (Faith SUSTAINS US.)
I WOULD ASK THAT YOU KEEP US IN YOUR PRAYERS AND THAT YOU PRAY SPECIFICALLY FOR MIRACULOUS HEALING, A WONDERFUL MIRACLE IN THE AREA OF FINANCE TO COVER THE COST OF TRANSPORT, AND BETTER MEDICATION AND HEALTHY WHOLESOME FOOD FOR THE ILL.
