00:01 What an incredible testimony,
00:02 what an incredible story that Loretta has, 00:05 and we just have a couple moments left. 00:07 Loretta, you have a special journaling Bible there, 00:10 and I think there's a question your son wrote in it, 00:12 talk to us about that? 00:13 I do have a journaling Bible. 00:14 And he asked me the question, 00:16 "Mommy, how many mission trips have you been on 00:19 since they said you wouldn't be able to go 00:21 on any more mission trips?" 00:23 And the answer to that is 19. 00:26 Wow! 00:27 You've been on 19 since you got sick. 00:29 I've been on 19 since they told me, 00:31 I wouldn't be able to do anymore 00:32 because when they told me 00:34 I wouldn't be able to walk again, 00:35 I said, "Can I do any more marathons? 00:36 Can I do any more mission trips?" 00:38 And so, what a blessing. 00:40 I don't know how many I've been on all together, 00:42 but these 19, 20 in June coming. 00:47 These 19 have been amazing and awesome, 00:50 with my family, 00:51 and what a blessing that I can go and serve 00:55 and share this story of God's amazing and wonderful grace. 00:58 And I want to say something too 01:00 that I think where it really impresses me 01:01 is that God is good 01:03 even if you weren't healed to the point you are now, 01:05 that's the state that you came to, 01:07 you know, you're like, "Okay, God, okay with You 01:09 if I'm in the wheelchair the rest of my life," 01:10 it's that coming to that realization 01:12 or, "God you've brought me to where I'm now. 01:14 Thank you, God, you're still good." 01:16 It annoys me when people hear my story 01:18 and say God is good because God is not good because I'm healed. 01:21 Yes. Yes. That's right. 01:22 In some place I was in Africa, 01:24 they say, "God is good all the time, 01:26 and all the time God is good." 01:27 All the time, God is good. And that's His nature. 01:29 That's right. That's right. That's what they add. 01:31 That's His nature. Amen. 01:33 I'm grateful, I'm amazed, 01:36 but that's not why He's good. 01:37 Amen. 01:38 He's good because He's God, 01:40 you know, He's awesome and amazing. 01:41 What an incredible testimony, Loretta. 01:42 Thank you for sharing from your heart. 01:44 Thank you for sharing the journey 01:46 that God has brought you on 01:47 and for sharing that with you at home. 01:49 We hope and pray 01:50 that there has been an encouragement in your life. 01:52 Your journey to trust God regardless, 01:56 trust God with your life. 01:58 We will see you again. Bye-bye. |
