Here’s Heather’s story:
Ever since I first denied Jesus…cause it was the first time I heard about Him…amazing things happened…I believe to save me, to hopefully sooner than later come to Him…I also sometimes wonder if He does these amazing things to knock on our door…wake us up that HE IS THERE. I denied going to church in 96-97…cause it felt weird. Then when I started to, cause I felt bad for my now ex husband…shortly after we started…my ex cheated on me. So that just was a slap in the Biblical trying face. And especially with me, as for my Dad did that to my Mom….and I heard about it all…so it was reliving it. So, I just denied going..and that made our marriage rocky until our divorce finally about 9 years after…But with that denial I kept getting little signs from Him…that He loved me…such as one major flat tire on the way to see someone I shouldn’t have had a relationship with, even while my ex and I were broken…and this friend was so into me..that the night of my flat…he was proposing…and that screwed it up…made me realize I was not feeling right. Kinda cool God guidance, without me even being into Him yet.Another was a huge accident, rolled my little Tercel 3 times down the freeway in San Diego…on my way to have lunch with an “ex boyfriend” that still had it for me-but he was married…so was I….and I felt it was so wrong finally. I was going up there nicely dressed, to have one lunch and tell him to leave me alone…God knew more would have happened had I shown…so that accident occurred. Kinda cool…all that happened was a little scrape in the back of my knee and a broken left ring finger…they had to cut off my marriage ring….go figure that sign!Then after several more breakups and moves…we finally got together, and pregnant…and as I said above my seizures went crazy…these things I look at as reasons to reach for Him…but I didn’t in the beginning…until my ex beat me after my first brain surgery…that is when I was very alone…no one would talk to me about that subject…and I needed a Saving…Someone to Save me…A Savior…and it wasn’t my family, nor my daughter or doctors, nor my husband today….it was finding Jesus Christ…that saved me from death early…and gave me ability to help others.He constantly has me in need for Him…health wise…goes with the flow of my medical condition and medications side effects…from Epilepsy, to severe TMJ, to parotid gland full of “air” (might have to be taken out)to one kidney that works-the other only works about 16%, which makes me have to drink a lot of water to make sure I get my medication through…had two kidney stones on that kidney for over two years-that is how much it didn’t work. RLS…that makes it hard to sleep if not medicated…but when medicated, plays with seizures and blood work…I usually have no B12, so I have to take them sublingual a lot, and low Ferretin level of iron…all from pretty much severe epilepsy days…that is what makes medication so difficult…but, makes me know that every day is better today, than the possiblities are…it could be worse…I have seen them worse…and I thank God for giving me these days…He has made wonders in my light of thinking because of Him…once I got to know Him close. When I didn’t, things were always impossible or irritating…or the worse off…now I am thankful for how I am each day…whichever way it is…My daughter has childhood epilepsy…that is what they saud to me…so I pray hers does go away. She also has some issues in reading and comprehension. Could be from the medication, could be from the stress of getting to know her biological, could be from his add…I am having her tested to see…but she is doing a lot better with work, and prayer.He is amazing…I love you all…and He loves you most…and will be there for you, in all tough times…He loves you so much during them…and even if you feel you sinned bad..He will not remember…for He forgave you the moment you accepted Him!! Love Him back!In His Love,Heather
