Ok, I'm new but I have to jump right in here.

In the past few weeks I have witnessed several miracles. My sister is born again as of a month ago thanks to God using her 13 year old son to speak to her. God has now been using my sister to touch so many souls in our family including my children. I have never realized just how great God is.

My nephew is a loving 24 year old daddy and husband and since my sister has found Christ again he has seemed to get further and further away from his mom. He had started drinking heavily and staying out all night. Everyone started praying for him immediately. I asked God to PLEASE bring him back to God's family. That night my mother calls out of the blue, that my nephew totally gave his life to Christ. It was unbelieveable.

My mother has Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and is pretty much house bound therefore can't get to Church. My wife and I along with our Life Group and several other people that she doesn't even know have been praying for her. A lady from my Life group calls laster that night telling me that there is a new technique that just came out to help people with Chronic Fatigue. My mom said to me, "I just realized something, all these people praying for me, people that I don't even know, shows me just how much God loves me" She told me that she is feeling so good spiritually that it's putting her physical pains aside.

There seems to be a rivial of sorts as well. It seems that God is swooping up the youth left and right and using them to witness to adults. The spirit is gushing through my entire family all because of one little boy that has totally accepted Christ. Now we're branching out to others and it just keeps going on and on. This all seems to just be happening recently.

I have so much more but I don't want to jump in here and bore you guys. I really just wanted to share. Thanks for listening.

God bless us all!!!!

PS I started reading Purpose Driven Life recently by Warren. Has anyone read this book?? Very cool!!!!

PSS I'm sorry that this is all over the place but I'm going a little nutso here.

I see this in the youth also. Our Youth group is growing so fast it's amazing. They now take up 1/4 of the seats. They are doing just as you wrote, they are bringing the adults back to church.

Thanks for posting this and welcome to the forum!

Awesome thanks for sharing. http://www.christianguitar.org/forums/images/smilies/yep.gif
I'm a moderator also in the Teen forum and I see many stories of how the teens/kids have to be the example to the parents which is sad but God uses that too. :angel:

My church went through the Purpose Driven Life series and though there is good and bad comments about the series it did change a lot of people's lives for the better.

I have seen only good things come from the purpose driven life. God bless Rick Waren

In other countries, especially the "third world," there is a massive growth going on. My ministry sends Bibles to missionaries, pastors, evangelists and churches in poor communities, and we have requests for 10,000 Bibles and 1,000,000 tracts. The demand is WAY greater than the supply.

My brother in law got saved through a Bible study I gave him, and even my sister is getting interested in seeking God.

It's a work of God all right, and I think it is just in time according to prophesy.

That's an awesome testimony, and I agree, please bore me with pages and pages of that at every opportunity!;)
