God Avenges Me, Harassment

at my last job, I was terribly sexually harassed by the treasurer of the company. He even blatantly propositioned me. He was a married man with children. And this man knew I was married.

I sought counsel and was told that if I reported this man that I would be fired.

I continually prayed for God to remove this man from my life. A few months later the man left the office for good and moved away! I was so happy!

But then this man began calling me at home and leaving messages. I was so worried, and scared. I asked God to teach this man a lesson, so that he'd never hurt another woman. I asked God to show this man that God was in control; for God to bring this man to his knees and convert this man; for this man to acknowledge that God is the God of the universe, and that God is all powerful and not this man.

3 days later this man's wife died; six months later he contracted brain cancer, losing the use of his hands; one year later he contracted liver cancer and died.

It is extremely sad and chilling that all this happened.
Hebrews 10:30: revenge is Mine, says God. I will repay.

Benign tumors

Four weeks ago Andy's doctor (ENT) found two tumors on Andy's neck, one was quite large. A biopsy was performed - both were benign! The ENT urged to have them removed ASAP - so the following week they were removed in a 3 hour surgery. Andy's incision goes from around the ear down almost to the adam's apple. Praise the Lord that none of the facial nerves were cut/damaged!

The day after Andy's surgery I noticed a large, painful purple/red lump on my left breast. My doctor saw me the next day and it was removed. It was benign!

We are both in pain still, but healing.

Praise God the tumors were benign and removed promptly!

Feel the pain - Cry if you want

Go ahead, feel the pain - Cry if you want. Acknowledge something has died even if it is just a dream of how your life was supposed to go. Tears have a way of cleansing the soul and refreshing the spirit. As you release all that is bottled up inside, God collects those precious tears in a bottle, and does not disregard them. See Psalm 56:8.

TEN YEARS - CANCER FREE!

On February 7th, 2005 I felt large lumps in both breasts. My physician confirmed the lumps and found smaller ones on each side. A February 16th appointment was made at the hospital for a mammogram and ultrasound, with a surgeon standing by for biopsy. I had known women who died from breast cancer. Was I to be another statistic?

The week prior to mammogram I put my life in order by phoning or writing family and friends to put everything “right” between us. Then I rededicated my life to God, asking forgiveness of all my sins. I told God if it was His will for me to die, it was okay as long as I was “right” with Him. I asked for God’s healing in my life, I read the Bible, I prayed earnestly, I did all these things, but the lumps were still there.

February 16, 2005 - mammogram day. I awoke at 5:30 am and watched the sun rise. “What would this day bring,” I pondered.

 I prayed to God to be near, really near.

 At the hospital I changed into the gown and felt my breasts, and, yes, the lumps were still there.

The mammogram was over and so was the ultrasound. I now awaited the surgeon’s decision whether or not to do a biopsy. I could hear him talking fast and loud about my case. He was scaring me! What was he saying? “Why was she brought in? She has no lumps of any size in her breasts! They are completely clear!”

God worked a miracle! I have been cancer free-lump free for Over 12 years!

My Favorite Cousin

In October 2013 my favorite cousin, Jim, died of bone cancer. He was only 61 years old, and his birthday was yesterday. Jim had been an honor guard in Washington, DC; and more recently a federal bank examiner. He was a fine Christian gentleman in every sense of the word.

We do not know what life will bring to us. Some days are quiet, others hectic; some days we come down with illness, other days we are happy and healthy. My word to you, the reader, is this: always be right with God - always have your life in order.

I believe that very soon, (though no one knows exactly when), the Lord will come for those who love and trust Him and He will take them to Heaven. I believe Jim will be among those who will be resurrected when Jesus comes.

For further reference please read:
1 Corinthians 15:51-57, and 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18.
