Drug Addiction
In the midst of all this praying I forgot to share something wonderful. Billy my brother, whom you all prayed for concerning drug and alcohol abuse is now healed by the Blood of Jesus and serving the Lord with Boldness. He visited me several weeks ago and the change I saw in him was profound to say the least. His face seemed to be filled with the Glory of God. Billy told me that God was calling him to clean up his house (his earthly body by putting away all forms of habits that were not pleasing to God which included alcohol, drugs and even smoking.
Billy is now serving as a Volunteer and Evangelist in
Birmingham's Salvation Army where he was offered a job
opportunity after he had fasted for God's direction. Prayer
really changes things and people too! Also, my younger
brother Jimmy seems to have made a decision to move on with
his wife, who left him and his two
(2) small children. You all prayed for him as well. He seems
to be coming out of his depression and is coping with being
both a mother and father like a true champion. Finally, if
any of you get the opportunity to rent or purchase "The
Champion" starring Carmen - please spread the word - this
was the absolute best Christian movie I have ever seen. It's
out on video and well worth the look. We must support
Christian movies as they are so few. God Bless you all.
