I am no different than many of you. I struggle with knowing clear direction, if what I'm doing is what I'm supposed to be doing, doubt and confusion. (The devil is a liar!) I got some much needed confirmation this past weekend. In a soul searching time with old friends I got the assurance that I've needed. Good friends are like medicine to your soul. My friends confirmed that this headlifting as I call it that I do has value and is much needed. I am not trained or schooled for any of this as you can probably tell but I am full of the Holy Spirit, love people and want to share the "Good News" with as many as possible. My wife has been on this journey with me for 36 years and has seen my ups and downs. After hearing me spill my guts as to what's going on inside of me and hearing our friends give me confirmation that what I'm doing is anointed, and after hearing the testimony of someone I had talked to and given a "I'm Getting Better" bracelet, she surprised me the morning after we got home with a note. It said " It's Time" and the date. It's time for me to take this blog and my I'm getting Better.com to another level. To reach as many people as possible. The moment I saw the note a scene from Rocky popped into my head. The moment that Rocky's wife after being against him fighting, told him to WIN freeing him up mentally to go all in. I can hear that bell ringing right now and I'm getting in fight mode. I may get bruised and bloodied but I won't give up. I will never quit! Too many people are lost and looking for what only Jesus can offer. I must do what I can. There are people, places and things that only I can touch. This is true for you as well. How you say something even though we are saying the same thing, can touch people I can't. I hope "it's time" for you too!
Deep Heaven- It says in Ephesians 1:20 MSG that Christ was raised from the dead and set on a throne in "deep heaven". Today I know you are in deep heaven with Him. You hurt for months trying to get better. Your last days were hard. I can’t imagine the pain you were in. You were a fighter because the cancer that you originally had is not what killed you. My prayers changed from asking for complete healing to please give you a day with no pain to please take her lord. He answered my prayer and you went to deep heaven last night. I can picture in my mind the reunion you had with mom and dad. You were my rock! I will miss our conversations. I will miss your fried chicken during the holidays and the stories you would tell about mom and dad before I was born. Because of their ages you were more of a grandmother to my kids because your house was the special place, we all gathered for Christmas. You always put others first and helped us out when we needed it. Oh, if I can only liv...
