Gods FavorI consider myself very fortunate to be in Gods favor. There are so many situations and circumstances I could tell which describe Gods kindness, love, forgiveness, deliverance and mercy shown towards me. I thank the Lord for delivering me many years ago from depression. Ten years ago I lost my mother to Cancer. My mother was really heaven sent. She was a strong Christian woman who dedicated her life to God, her husband and her children. I was 21 at the time in my junior year of college. Even though I new my mom had cancer her death was a shock to me because I really felt that the Lord was going to heal her. After her death even though I had my siblings, my father, and friends trying to console me I felt like my life was over. There were no words that anyone could have said that would have brought any light into my life at that time. Even though I was saved I began to question God wondering why such a thing had to happen. During that time people were praying for me and the Lord touched me and renewed my spirit. One thing I realized is that I didn’t have the right to question God and that he would never place more on me than I could bear. The Lord showed me that even though at times I feel week and in despair that his joy will never leave me. It was because of the joy of the Lord that I was able to obtain strength. To this day I still tear up when I think about my mom and thank God for helping me realize that the time she was in my life was wonderful and that it is not always about quantity, but quality. The time that I shared with my mother was surely quality time and I will forever thank the Lord for that. When my mother passed I did not feel that I would be able to go on with school or anything. Since that time I went on to obtain a bachelors and masters degree, and now pray over my family like my mother prayed over hers. From that situation my faith in the Lord became a lot stronger. The young girl who depended on her mother to give her the scriptures that she needed turned into the women of God who had to now do it for herself. Now I am trusting in the Lord to heal my eyes. I recently was diagnosed with a rare eye disease that has taken a large portion of my vision away. I thank God that I still have some of my vision left and I believe that in this life time I will be able see well again. I strive to continue to pray about everything, worry about nothing, and thank the Lord for what he has already done. For I am overtaken by Gods Favor! W. Moore, USA
