Create a Myspace LED ScrollerGreetings everyone. My name is Lisa and I am a bornagin christian that has been serving God for 18 yrs. I go to a Non-Denominational Church. And I live in the upstate NY area. I am 5'11, with brown hair and blue eyes. My life involves concerning Christ. Not saying we don't fall from God here and there, because none of us our perfect. For the Bible does say in Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God". Through it all I do have many battles in my life like we all do. But one that can solve those battles if we give it unto Him and that is Jesus Christ. Well this is some stuff about me anyways for now. God bless.
Hosted By SparkleTags.comGodsChild2024's Testimony-Greetings everyone. Praise the wonderful Name of Jesus. The reason for this web page is to fill in all of u that want to know more about me, which I can't complete in yahoo profile, because it doesn't let you say to much. I will say I am a bornagain spirit filled believer. Been saved since 1987 and been serving the Lord for 18 yrs, regardless if its in the streets or on the net in the stores etc. Jesus will be made known. For the bible says here: Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. and Luk 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, Luk 4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. ) Thats where my heart is. Well, u are probably asking yourself about my testimony. Here it is and would be glad to share. I have been alone alot in my lifetime. This society has closed me out on alot of things and from the world's point of views. Everyone is always quick to judge regardless. Doesn't matter they always judged,regardless if its appearances, disabilities, looks, how you dressed; whatever... I was always an outcast to society. Never had friends in my school yrs and never had a mother and father figure when I was young. My dad and mom got divorced when I was about 12. So never had the mom and dad figure that any child at a young age would desire to have. My sister/brother and I took it very rough. We all had a hard time in school, my sister turned into wheeling and dealing drugs along with my brother smoking pot. Me, I never got into drugs but wanted to end my life all the time. Was very suicidal and have been in and out of mental institutions alot. Just wanted to give up on everything. Through all these hard and difficult times of feeling rejected and not really having a mom and dad figure, because we mostly did everything 4 ourselves, even though we did live with our dad. He worked alot. And we had to fend for ourselves. I did make a commitment to myself to graduate High School at that time. Which I did in June of 1986. Where my sister and brother ended up being school drop outs. And did get my regular High School Diploma instead of a Special Ed certificate. If u are wondering what Special Ed is. Its a class that helps people with special disabilites, like learning disability for instance. My grades weren't all that, with a average of 65. But in those days when I was in school. 65 was above passing and anything lower then that was failing. So I did graduate which in a way I was happy for, still in the same token, still hated my life and felt even though I did pass which wasn't much. I didn't feel as though I would accomplish anything in life till the yr of 1987 the year after I graduated when I made the greatest decision in my life time. Now u have to understand 1 thing, I have been going to a catholic church, especially when I was living with my grandmother and trying to come close to God. While doing that there was a void, big void. Catholic church wasn't working and I always came out feeling dead as ever with more depression and more not wanting to live. Till like I said the yr of 1987 when a woman next door from my grandmother's went for a family reunion. And that reunion was right there next door where God had this all planned from day one. Well, I was depressed that day as everyday that goes by. And this woman, her name is Ann called me over. From what I detected, she must of sensed that I was upset and not feeling up to par with anything but dying.In many opportunities, I have taken a over dose of high milligrams of pills that could do damage if you take enough of them which I did along with putting a gun towards my head with bullets fully loaded and pulled the trigger and nothing came out, being frightened I dropped the gun and said please let me die, and thats exactly how I felt. Now this has happened with me a few times with the gun and pills issue before I met Ann. Anyways concerning Ann, she must have been watching me as well. Anyways, she did call me over to the fence and told me to come over. Which I did, I jumped the fence and Ann started talking to me. She told me, you must be facing real hard times and you feel rejected alot. Out of fear, my eyes got big as softballs and said to myself; how in the world would she ever know that? She started talking and then asked me if I wanted to come on her boat for a few days that she wanted me to meet her 3 girls and that I would have a good time and it would get your mind off of things, she said. So, I said ok. But let me tell my grandmother that I will being going with you. So I did and packed up a few things and went with her. When we got to the dock where their yacht was. I met her girls and then Ann started sharing Jesus with me. Now I never knew anything about the true Jesus. All I knew was rituals of man and not the things of God. The true things of God. She started to ask me questions, do u know you are a sinner and that Christ died for you. I knew I did sin but about this God really loving me. I was definately eary on that 1. Because I had the attitude that if God did love me, why am I feeling empty and stuff? And she told me because you haven't asked Jesus to come into your heart, which say in Rev 3:20 ( Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. ) She also showed me that Jesus loves me that He died for me and that I can have that eternal life if I wanted it ( Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. ) I just sat there listening in contentment and was very interested in what she was saying. She told me that we need to be bornagain to inherit the Kingdom and when we do that we would be saved (Joh 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. ) I had no clue on what she was going with that. After all being Catholic, they don't teach any of this stuff. And all I thought is what would get me there, is going to church and doing for others. Boy, was I wrong. The Bible states: ( Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. & Tit 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;). She kept going on and on about God and I was so in tuned in what she was saying. I wanted to know more and more. But yet still confused with alot of things, which in alot of cases we are lost. Because we don't understand the oracle of God till we are saved. At that time, I had no clue, but yet interested. I was sitting there like a wet, sopping sponge, taking all this in. And loving every minute of it. She finally asked me after telling me her stories in what God has done for her and her family. She asked me if I wanted to receieve Jesus Christ into my heart. I said sure, what do I need to do. She explained to me just repeat this prayer after me and I did. The scriptures does say: Rom 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Rom 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. And I tell you people, it was the greatest joy I could have ever did. While on this yacht though, I had a good time, but yet some experiences that would scare anyone out of their wits. We ended up having a baby tornado in the middle of this Island we were all anchored at. And I tell you I was scared. But as I realize now. God had this happen 4 a reason to see how Great He is, and to show me things through this experience. Anyways through this, the yacht and many other boats big and small we all where anchored around each. Cleats and all were smashing through the windows, and as I saw for the quick 8 or 9 seconds, I saw this yacht spinning around in circles alone with her daughters speed boat standing striaght up on its outboard motor, spinning like a top. I never seen anything like it and I tell you. I was scared as could be as waves was crashing all around and they told me to stay down. Due that everything was smashing through the windows. Ann started praying in this weird tongue. And I had no clue what she was saying. Though I was saying to myself what am I getting involved with here? Like I don't have enough issues in my life, now this storm and her speaking some weird stuff. Anyways, I was listening and still scared out of my wits. But what ever this tongue was. It calmed the storm within a few seconds, like nothing ever happened. Water was calm, sun was shinning, yet boats and stuff was damaged. But Praise the Lord, no one was hurt. And what God was showing me through this storm, that even though we are in the midst of the storm with our problems, if we rely on Him, which Ann did by praying, God can calm the storm. I can do the same through these storms I was facing at that time. And this is why God did this to open my eyes and see. And boy, I tell ya, it did. Well as I was with them for a few days it ended up where I stayed with them on this boat longer then expected. She started taking me to this spirit filled church and me being curious as always. I didn't enter in, but was watching what was taking place around me. Like I said this is all new to me and had no idea, clue, natta what was going on. But people praising and I mean praising like I never saw in my life. Not rituals of man made prayers as I was seeing in the catholic religion. People dancing all over the place, speaking in tongues, interpertation of tongues. I was saying to myself, geeze, I really need to get out of here. But scared to make a fool of myself and knew I had no where to go, because I was with Ann. I had to stay put. So I just dealt with it. Trying to hold back all the laughs when I saw these people dancing all over and speaking in tongues etc etc. I thought to myself this is totally ridicolous and foolish. When we don't understand things, it can look foolish and I was foolish not them. By trying to hold back the laughs and mockment, due to my lack of knowledgement. After the service was over she asked me if I liked it, I told her yeah, to make her happy. But yet I was like it was ok to myself. Well after the service, I went back with her and she gave me one of her Bibles to read and I started to read and things would come right off the pages and believe me if the words can slap me literally upside the head. It sure did coming off the page as it did. All the stuff I was mocking and trying to hold back laughter, God was showing me through His Word, about tongues, interpetation of tongues ( 1Co 12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: ), God was also showing me things as well concerning the catholic religion as well; like calling no man father ( Mat 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. ) and that priest can't take away sins ( Heb 10:11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: ). After reading the Word, I was desiring God more and more. After all if we really seek we find our answers ( Luk 11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. ) And if we study God will help us learn more and more about Him. ( 2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. ) I thank the Lord every day for what He has done for me in the past, by sparing my life many times and thanking Him now what He has done. He had providing wonderful Godly people in my life and one of them is my true friends in Christ is my brother Jim and his wife Dorthy, which I call her my sis. I love them a whole lot and they have helped me alot of times, where others haven't. And I am not trying to boast them up or anything. But if we love Christ as we say we do, we would do what the Lord requires us to do. Jesus did, so if He did, why can't we do 4 the least of our brethrens? Also want to thank God for putting other special people in my life that I haven't met in person yet from yahoo, my sis Emmerson,Tamara, Sue, Nancy & Rick. If I don't see them soon while on earth. Surely see u sis's & brother Rick in Heaven, Amen. They have been a great blesssing to me as well in my troubling times and I thank You Lord for giving them a listening ear when I can't see Jim and Dorthy online. Thank You Lord for these 4. I also want to thank God for the dream I also had some, some time ago. And my brother Jim confirming whats about to take forth through this dream, which is being accomplished now, because of faith. Remember faith without works is dead (James 2:17). And that dream the Lord showed me is me being used in the healing ministry. And I am not boasting myself up or anything. Because its not I that do these wonderous things. But Christ Jesus through me and He gets the Glory, not I. So I want to thank Him 4 my healings on my broken hand, my motorcycle injury and Jim's wife Dorthy and me of course 4 healing both of us from hypoglycemia. God's Word promises that we are healed, (Isa 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. & 3Jo 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. why not trust Him and claim it? After all His word never comes back void. And His promises are sure and Amen. Remember life and death is in the tongue, either we can claim our healing or call death upon ourselves ( Pro. 18:21 ) Now back to Ann, I want to thank You again Lord for Ann and her obedience to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and share what she shared with me. If it wasn't for her, I could have been a lost soul 4 eternity. And I thank God 4 her obedience in Him and her love for Him. That she brought me to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Its all I want now, and you can have that 2 if you aren't saved. Why let this great opportunity go by? There is no in between. Hate to say there is a heaven/hell, Jesus/satan, to whom this day u going to choose for eternity and whom to this day u going to serve? Think on this one... Time is short and you may not have a second chance. God loves you and He gave His only begotton Son to shed His Precious Blood for you even if you was the only indivdual here. Don't let this opportunity pass you by, please. What God has done for me. He surely can do 4 you. I am a living testimony. As u read earlier. Many may be facing what I am facing, or even worst situations. But know this. There is nothing impossible with God as long as we believe. ( Mar 10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible. and Mat 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. ) God loves you and no matter what you feel, God has never left or forsaken you. Scripture promises that: Heb 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. ) Forsake not what God has done for you, the beatings the slashes, the scars, the nails, the cross and the Blood He shed for you. After all this is what He did for you. Think upon it. God bless each one of you.LayoutsI edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
