“The just shall walk by faith.” Galatians 3:11

For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7

When I first started in the ministry, the spirit of the Lord told me to separate myself from Sherry, to fast and pray for 21 days “just on water!” We had no money. I found a shack in which the windows were broken out and it was the wintertime in Florida. I hung up blankets over the windows to try to keep the shack a little warmer. The rats would crawl in bed with me at night, coming under my covers. I would jump out of bed, grab my broom handle and try to kill the rats!

For those 21 days, the Lord felt so far away, I could never feel his presence. When I prayed, it was like “praying against a block wall!” After 21 days of fasting, Sherry came and picked me up at the shack. She was late because our junk car broke down on her.

Have you ever felt like God was a million miles away from you? Wait until you hear the rest of my story tomorrow morning at 6:00 a.m.!! Be sure and write in for my book: “Love Is Something You Do”. It’s our gift to you.
