    Years ago I used to listen on radio somewhere between 2 and 3 pm. I'm so glad I found her again. I lost my husband 5 months ago. Praise the Lord . He prepares our days before we get there and I will be with my husband longer than I've been without him. That's a wonderful promise!!!

    I'm trying very hard to thank God for my husband's violent death nearly two years ago and the lessons He means for me to learn. I AM able to thank God for drawing me closer to Him. The sorrow of losing my husband of nearly 54 years is still so great. I will keep trying to thank God for this sorrow even though it is so, so painful. Diane in NC

      I’m so sorry for your painful loss. I can’t imagine how hard that would be. But may God help you just as He helped Elisabeth to accept what He gives or allows to be taken away - and to offer it back to Him to be used for His good purposes. And as you do, may you experience the same peace and joy she had.

      Walking Right Here: Obviously, you are not happy at his violent death, but I think what God wants you to be happy over is the change as he can make in your life, from experiencing this loss. In other words, you would say, what can I learn from this tragedy, God? Not be happy over your husband violent death. I am so sorry for your loss!

    I've read and shared your missionary books to others. God has always used precious people like you to teach me and help me understanding suffering and most of all faithfullness of our creator, Jesus Christ, to always allow Him to help me in my sufferings, and cause me to not just know about Him, but to Know Him. When I come out of trials and persecution of great extent, I am no longer the same, but have more patience, more love for others and knowing nothing , yet understanding that Gods word is true...He never leaves us, He always loves us, and Love is the Greatest gift we can give to others.

      That's very impressive. I get really upset over very small things and the only thing that helps is when I remember that God is in control, and acceptance is the answer ....am I alone in totally forgetting this on a regular basis and having to learn it all over again!! It seems like a very little departure from God and his word and into negativity of any kind (irritation with husband usually), and boom! All wisdom gone. I am thankful that he restores me at some point though! This video brought be back to my senses today.😆 But in just thinking that if you don't call yourself a Christian, people will just think you are a good person..... And Christ will not be getting the glory. Don't hide your light under a bushel. The church needs spirit filled Christians!!

    If you believe, as the scriptures say, that we Gentile Believers are grafted into the Jewish people by faith, then the answer for suffering is found in Deuteronomy 8: 2-3. God allowed suffering and trials for the Hebrew people to strengthen them in their faith and to see if they would learn to obey Him. We are certainly no better than the original followers of the Jewish Messiah! ❤️🇮🇱 ❤️
