Write a brief summary of your testimony:
Truly God is Awesome in all that HE touches and that is the lives in which your ministry has come in contact with. My fiancé and I where planning on going to a small church located in Tacoma at the beginning of this New year. For the first speaker that was scheduled to speak at Peace Fellowship, but never found the street to get to the church. So the next flyer that was put up was that of your "Appointed" meetings in March. We believe that God blinded us from seeing the street the first time we looked for the church, because He knew that that wasn't His timing for us to be there, but for us to find the church a month later (in fact 30 days before your meeting) to ensure us that we were to be there at these meetings. I praise God in His Glory for all that He has done by this appointed moment in time. I know now that your ministry was the beginning of the rest of my life in our Lord Jesus' service. Not only for my life, but that of my future husbands (Justin).
I had been away from our Lords service for many years, due to worldly circumstances. Yet, in my heart, I knew I was never going to be satisfied walking in the world, because I knew the love of God before. Although my circumstances in my past changed my way of thinking about Jesus and thought I would never have what I had before, Jesus never changed his thinking about me.
I was His and He would do whatever it took to get me back to Him. You see Jesus saw into my heart and knew I was empty and nothing I was doing in the world was filling that void. Jesus knew He was the only one that would be able to fill that emptiness. In my heart I would cry out for help and direction. To find that one jump start to come back to His loving care and know that I was forgiven for my life circumstances and that I was truly forgiven of all the choice I had made. He answered that prayer, that desperate cry of my heart by leading me to Lew's meeting's at Peace Fellowship in Tacoma. The first night of the meetings wasn't just the beginning, but a running start to what God has called me (us) to do for His Kingdom! From that day forward it has been none stop in the Lord. We have grown in leaps and bounds, due to your obedience in your visit to that small, but mighty church, God has allowed us to call home. We are so Thankful that our loving God sent us to that one small church to hear His messengers. To let us know that we are truly loved by the Father, and no matter what are past circumstances were, that God has forgiven us and that He loves us enough to hold onto our hand's and finish the work He started in us. Justin and I have walked a hard life and have both gone through tough divorce's, but by the grace of God and His loving care had called us to be joined in union of marriage, to begin a venture as husband and wife. God has placed us in His service.
To do His will, because we have heard the call He has placed on both of our lives. God is bring full restoration in my life by giving back to me that what was stolen. God is giving me a Godly husband, along with bring my children back to me, to share in the joys of His call to the ministry in all of our lives. Thank you Brother Lew and your lovely bride, Lorri, for your love and support in what God has set you both out to do. By being the messengers of truth, love and restoration. May God our Father continue to fulfill His kingdom by the obedience in you.
In Christ's love and ours,
Reshel and Justin
How has your experience effected your walk with the lord?
We are on "FIRE" and are anticipating more to come in days to follow! ! ! We see the race in which God has given us. We will continue to race until we reach the finish line, leaning in to win that final race of all time. We're thankful that God has placed us in s church we know we will be used for His service and to enlarge His kingdom. Thank You Lew and Lorri for that direction and care enough to direct us to such a church that is loving and on "FIRE" for the Lord. God's presence has been steady and has increased daily. WOW..... how the earth is rolling in the awesome Glory of our Father! ! !
