The Story Of Brenden Foster

This little boy of eleven yrs old died last week from leukemia but his life was not in vain...this little boy dying wish was to feed the homeless people he saw on the way to the hospital! can you believe it? a little boy who is dying instead of packing instead of crying instead of being angry all he wanted was to help feed the homeless some sandwiches!!! i wish nowadays we could find people with hearts like Brenden Foster who do selfless things! and its amazing how he knew he was going to die soon...he said ill probably not be here next week but i had a good life and ill continue to have a good life until i leave....i put myself in his shoes and i realized that if i knew i was going to die next week i would NOT be sooooooooo calm!!! i would be freaking out...i would think of all the things i wanted to do...like travel to europe, travel around the world...have babies with my husband...buy a house, etc etc but this little boy all he cared about was feeding the homeless and planting some seeds so wildflowers could grow for the bees...some volunteers gave Brendon his wish and feed 200 homeless people and after that there was this big food drive all thanks to a little boy....its unbelievable the difference on how children think and us older people think no wonder God says unless we become children again we wont see the Kingdom of Heaven because the Kingdom of Heaven is promised to the children and now i understand why because children are not selfish...they have a good heart and no matter how much we punish them or put them on time out...they always come to give us hugs, kisses, and tell us i love you....unlike us..if someone yells at us we would probably never talk to them again!!! we always remember the bad things people do to us and we dont forgive but luckly the children do forgive and forget so lets pray that God helps us become more like children and that we may have hearts like children because all they know how to do is love... God bless and Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

It is worth Suffering!!!

ok so i went on this amazing trip for two months full of victory and the presence of the Holy Spirit...so many people were baptized, gave up addictions, received the Holy Spirit and us the group of 12 come back home to realize its time for the trials!!!!! my husband and i have been without work for 7 MONTHS!!! , not 7 days, not 7 weeks, 7 MONTHS!!! its insane because even if we dont have work...the bills keep on coming...thats the only thing that is constant because it doesnt stop!!!! however i need to Praise the Name of My God Almighty because even with seven months without work...there has always been food on the table and the rent has always gotten paid...how do you ask? well simple God provides...DUH!! but the things just never seem to go our way...my husband and i had plans to celebrate our wedding ceremony this dec and i have everything ready just no money so it had to be canceled...my husband couldnt start school...we had to move back to miami from gainesville and my stress and frustrations keeps on raising!!! and i realized that i did also have a bit of depression but i thank God because even though we are passing through this bad times that just keep getting worse i thank God because i know his plan is perfect...i know that maybe this trial is making me a better, stronger person...and this too shall pass and everything will fall into place and i believe in my God's promises that there is no son who is let alone...if he provides for the birds how much more is he going to provide for us...and if sinners give good gifts to their children...how much better are the gifts the Lord will give us...and if we ask for bread he will not give us a stone...so Praise God for his promises and for his love because its worth it suffering if God is with me!!!
