Memorial Day

     MEMORIAL DAY

On this day in 2003 Harland and I were in Florida. We had been witnessing in a community church.

  On Thursday night one of the men got up in front of the congregation parading back and forth holding a bible up and saying “this is the best thing God ever sent us”.

     So that night as I lay awake troubled for hours seeing Ray exalting the bible replaying over and over in my mind.

    I was saying in my heart over and over again, “Lord, they love a history book about You more than they love You and the Holy Spirit.”

    As I lay there on the bed Thursday night until the early hours of the morning which would have been early Friday morning, I saw coming down from the ceiling an arm and as it got closer to me, I saw that it had a large scar on its hand.

     And I thought, “that must be Jesus’ hand” the hand reached down and shook my hand and Jesus said “Congratulations”.

    And then Jesus appeared up near the ceiling standing with a group of men that had been killed for preaching the Gospel and said “Welcome to the brotherhood”.

     This is a vision that I will always remember, it is so humbling that Jesus would shake my hand and welcome me to the brotherhood of saints that had given their lives for the Kingdom of God.

     So I wish to thank the Lord and acknowledge Him and His saints that have suffered so much and given their lives for our Savior and the truth so that others might find life in Christ.

      This is truly a memorial day to remember.

Praise Father God and King Yeshua for remembering our generation and reaching out His precious nail scarred hand to us. I love them so much for the love they have given Harland and I all of our lives. Thank you Jesus.
