MSC Prayers
Humble Servant of All
Praise The Lord! God Is Great! May His Will Be Done in all of our lives. I don’t really know how to begin this, simply due to the fact that some very unwise life choices completely turned my life around, and instead of doing God’s Will, I did mine. With that said, “I’m alive today, ‘By the Grace of God!’” I was 18 years old when I turned my life over to Jesus Christ and for a number of years, He was my personal Lord and Savior. Sadly, instead of following His Will, I turned my back on Him and foolishly sought to do my will. Let’s just say, after more than 40 years of not doing God’s Will, I nearly died from a self-caused set of diseases known as WERNICKE’S ENCEPHALOPATHY and WERNICKE-KORSAKOFF SYNDROME – which are both caused by heavy alcohol consumption, coupled with the nutritional shortage of Thiamine (Vitamin B1). The result is both physical and mental disabilities (or death). While living on San Juan Island I was slowly dying (while I was ignoring God and His Will for my life). About 3 years ago I decided that I was not only overweight (270 lbs.), but I was drinking too much (about 30 ounces of 100-proof cheap vodka daily). I foolishly (thinking it was wisely) decided to fast for a while to lose some weight. Fortunately, I immediately realized (Okay, I’ll admit it, “It was God intervening on my behalf”) that consuming that much alcohol on an empty stomach would quickly kill me. I’ll be honest, I truly believe it was His Will that I continued to drink, just not as much. I say that because, had I stopped drinking completely, I don’t think my resulting ‘health-issues’ would have opened my eyes. After about 120-days of so-called ‘fasting’ while still consuming ‘booze’ I lost about 80 pounds and nearly lost my life. I guess about 8 ounces of my favorites ‘cheap vodka’ wasn’t enough to kill me, it was hover enough to cause me some serious health issues. I was totally ignorant to what I was doing to myself, and I’ll say it again, “I’m alive today, ‘By the Grace of God! Hallelujah!’” I was hospitalized in mid-July of 2023, and for nearly 90 or so days, I was totally oblivious to what was going on. On afternoon in October of that same year, I suddenly and clearly realized that I was no longer in Friday Harbor. I discovered myself walking down the hallway of an rehabilitation center, using a walker, and it seemed normal. Sometime during that time, I had turned my life back over to Jesus Christ and was once again serving Him. Praise The Lord! Thank You Jesus! Glory To God! I’m back in Fellowship with God! Today I was listening to a Born-Again Christian Band called, “Love Song” and was totally blessed by the song they shared (which they say, was provided to them by God): Welcome back Welcome back Welcome back Welcome back Welcome back to the things that you once believed in Welcome back to what you knew was right from the start All you had to do was to be what you always have wanted to be Welcome back to the love that is in your heart I know that you thought you could turn your back And no one could see in your mind But I can see that you know better now You never were the untruthful kind Yeah, and I'm so happy now to welcome you back Wooo-ahaa, ahhh-hah-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh Wooo-ahaa, ahhh-hah-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh Sometimes you just don't know what you're missin' 'Til you leave it for awhile Woooh-Welcome back Welcome back Welcome back, (Welcome back to Jesus) Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Welcome back Please pray for me, my physical and mental health issues, my relationship with Jesus Christ, and Doris, Shannon, Josh, Galina, Vivian, Danielle, Kymmie, Debbie, Janet, Steven, Virginia, Bridgette, Candy, Chris, Brad, Emma, Wes, Liam, Elijah, Sammy, Keara, Ann, Chira, Oren, Peggy, Barbara, Yvonne, Rob, Sean, Josh, Billie, John, John jr., John sr., Frank, Henry, Connie, Jael, Haylee, Kaylee, Jeremiah, Jeremiah jr., Elijah, Hollie, Lester, Leo, Drew, Alaina, Sophia, Khyllie, Ehllie, Raycelle, Vidal, Justy, Requel, Rishaan, Ayna, Steve, Sue, Tim, Geoff, Karla, Julie, Mary, Greg, Carol, Rose, Joe, Sam, Kels, Kelso, Guard, Spain, Kastein, Evelien, Elise, Elyse, Pierre, Judy, Jay, Riley, Robin, Frances, Dan, Ceradwen, Bronwyn, Daryl, Trefor, Jackson, Satchel, Diana, Nylah, Nevaeh, Lorie, Steven, Laura, Stephen, Lauren, Woody, Dreu, Toni, Shannon, Tom, Karie, Nevaeh, Orion, Johnna, Liz, Jack, Maryam, Zoey, and everyone whom The Holy Spirit places on our hearts to pray for.
