I accepted Jesus as my Saviour when I was 11 years old. I was baptized the night that Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon. It was a very memorable day for me that I will never forget. As America was rejoicing in the successful Apollo mission that landed Neil Armstrong on the moon, the angels in Heaven were rejoicing over one sinner who got saved!
Down through the years the grace of God and the prayers of two godly praying grandmothers kept me alive. I served in the U.S. Army as a Military Policeman. I enjoyed what I did as I was helping people. God had plans for my life and I accepted the call to preach in 1982 while stationed in Stuttgart, West Germany. God's grace carried me through many storms in my life.
Through the trials and testings the Lord was always with me. He promised in His Word, "I will never leave thee nor forsake thee." - Hebrews 13:5. I have been injured numerous times. I have had 5 surgeries in my life. I have been in 4 car accidents where the car was destroyed and I could have been killed. Yet, the Lord sparred my life, as He had a greater purpose for my life. In 2006 I was informed by a medical doctor that I had end stage liver failure and unless I got a liver transplant I would be dead within four years. I was miraculously healed and never did get the liver transplant and I am enjoying good health.
I said all that to say that no matter what you have done in your life, no matter what your past is, God loves you and will help you change your lfie. His grace is sufficient, His love is unfailing and He has a great plan and purpose for your life. God wants you to live a life in abundance, to the fullest, 'til it overflows! (John 10:10)
Submit yourself to God. By His grace you can make a difference in somebody's life! God made a difference in my life and I want to make a difference in your life. I want to pray for you that God will radically change your life and that He will demonstrate it with His love and grace for you! God loves you! I pray that He gives you favor, that you walk in His favor and that others will notice the difference in your life. "Let go and let God!"
May God richly bless your life today!
To your success,
Tom
