My friend and I decided to go for a mountain bike ride at a later time in the day. We took into account the sunset time but did not consider the tree covering that would block the sunlight from lighting the trail. The ride up to the peak was difficult and longer than we expected. When we reached the peak it was completely dark and the ride back down the other side was primarily under the cover of trees that blocked any residual light coming from the city nearby. The lack of lighting significantly affected our ability to see clearly and lowered our visibility to roughly 3 feet. We set out on our way back down the mountain all the while attempting to remain within eye sight of each other to prevent injuries, getting lost, or the possibility of being devoured by a cougar. We made it about 150yds before I fell off the trail and started rolling down the side of the mountain. Fortunately, a large dirt mound prevented me from traveling too far and I was able to climb back up. I was injured but able to continue without assistance. We continued on our way down the mountain stopping occasionally to navigate over structures that seemed impassible by bicycle. We eventually made it back to the paved road and then back to our parked vehicles. It was a moment in which God allowed us to bond over the fight for survival. That mountain threw many obstacles at us and God lead us through them all. "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13; including conquer a treacherous, beast inhabited mountain without the luxury of satisfactory lighting.

While struggling through stress and anxiety, I just stopped and prayed. After living in fear for awhile, God spoke to me and said, "Trust me." I'm drawn to the words in Mark 5: 36 where Jesus simply says, "Don't be afraid; just believe." My focus is now not on what I'm struggling with most, but rather, trusting that regardless of what happens, God is there.

I help at church with daycare for the toddlers when their moms are at bible study. One morning one of the little girls just walks up to me out of the blue and says "I love you Mr. Jones" If that's not a God moment I dont know what is!

I had suffered with depression since the age of 12, over the year with many pills and quite a few hospital stay where I had tried to end my life, I still stuggled with it, thinking that this was just my life and I just had to learn how to live despite it, but last year I learned that this was not the case, after hearing a christian physcoligist on Joyce Meyers, God healed me of depression, and I learned that the awnser to all of lifes up and downs is in the bible, God promises us that if we seek after him with ALL our heart we will have a great life, the awnser was there all the time, I just had to recieve it.

Recently I had the opportunity to attend a wedding of a long time friend. Standing there watching his bride come down the aisle, I had somewhat of a movie flashback. I briefly experienced some of the great times and some of the hard times we have been through together throughout our friendship. One specific moment that stood out from the rest was when my friend dedicated his life to Christ. It was a time of immeasurable celebration. As his bride continued to walk toward him, I realized this moment was to be celebrated just like the other. My best friend of many years now has a new best friend, one that he will spend the rest of his life with. I was happy to pass the torch and celebrate along with God for the union they entered into. I give thanks to Christ for displaying true commitment and showing us how to love unselfishly.

I just have to share how God shows up in very little situations when we are listening to Him. I lost my glasses and it's not good timing to go get a new perscription. So I went a couple of days blind (well blurry vision) and I was praying asking God for direction. Suddenly, I had the urge to go look under my nightstand. I obeyed and thought maybe God was directing me to my glasses. Instead I found a box of contacts that had been miss placed since we moved. Ha! God is so amazing!!! Had to share because I could not stop smiling!

Through the love and guidance of my holy Father I have been clean and sober for almost 13 months and cigarette free for over 1 month. I have learned to live by the principles of honesty, integrity, hope, faith, courage, perseverance, humility, willingness, spiritual awareness, brotherly love, and service. These plus the knowledge that I am saved and forgiven and truly loved by GOD helps me to trust HIM one hundred percent and allows me to be open and strong enough to turn my will and life over to him daily. Since I've made these changes I have been blessed with a great connection with my family, amazing and supportive friends, and an exciting new journey as I move to a brand new home in 12 days. I know without a doubt that the LORD GOD is the leader in my life and I will be continually blessed as long as I keep my eyes on Him.

A good friend of mine's brother was caught with enough drugs to be considered a dealer. After a few months in jail, they granted him the opportunity to go to a Christian based rehab organization rather than having to do more jail time. He's now been in the facility for several months and has come to know Jesus. He is learning to follow Him and love others. When his non-believing father wants to visit him, they go to church together... Thanks to God, the lowest point in his life is turning into the best thing that ever happened to him! Amen!

My mom went into the hospital to have a triple bypass, after a recurrence of breast cancer. She was to go home in 4 or 5 days. They discovered a kink in her bowel, in which, doctors had to remove a foot of her colon. Now we thought mom is finally coming home. The day she was supposed to come home, two aneurysms in the areas of the original cauterizations we found. The doctor told me, "Your mom must have 9 lives." I told him, "My mom is alive only because of all the prayers being said for her!"
