From Pastor Alfonso: WOW Pastor thank you. It was an honor to have you Sharon and your friends. We love to share Jesus with people. 1st time your guest but 2nd time your family. We will definitely have you back. You really blessed us with an amazing Word from the Lord! “AMAZING GRACE” Wow
Love you Pastor!
My message of “Amazing Grace: included the story of John Newton, who composed one of the the greatest hymns ever, “Amazing Grace’. John Newton was a slave trader, he mocked Jesus, he was on a sinking ship in the Atlantic ocean, but he and the entire crew received amazing grace and he also became a world renowned Preacher. You will have to hear me give that message someday! I also gave part of my testimony on how God healed me from a hip disease! I wore a metal leg brace from age 4 to 5 1/2. The Doctor said I probably would not walk or run like the rest of the kids…I can still hear those words today at age 63…..I especially think of those words from the Doctor when I’m out on the softball field! Hallelujah! PTL! ALL SOLD OUT FOR GOD!!! I am holding that brace in the picture at the very top.
Here is a post I wrote on July 5th, my Mom’s birthday:
My Mom, Ruth would be 89 today! My Sister Deb has her Bible I have her senior confirmation book with all her notes! Such a gentle woman of God, peaceful spirit, best mother ever!
Parents who are focused on God and their children.
Thank you Lord for Godly parents!
Let me share with you about my full leg brace….if it was not for my Godly Mom and Dad who sought proper treatment for me I may never have walked. My Dad worked for the Windom, Minnesota school, first as a custodian then as Transportation Director. One night he was locking up the building and I was with him, they called me “Wally’s shadow.” I went everywhere with him! I missed a step going down the stairs and for a week or so I limped. Dad and Mom got concerned and took me to Dr. Harold Basinger who took x-rays and it showed I had a bad hip and he sent us to the Mankato, Minnesota hospital. The Doctor we saw was over 7 feet tall, Dr. Meredith. He examined me for several hours and then as I was lying down on the exam table this giant of a man looked into my eyes and said to me and my parents,”Dwayne (my birth name) may never walk or run like the rest of the kids.” That is the way he said it, and I will never forget those words. I had a hip disease. At 4 I completely knew what that meant! My Mom and Dad cried. They prayed. Our Church and community
I keep that brace to remind me of God’s greatness.
I am still walking and running and playing softball at 63! A miracle of God, the love of God! Amen! All glory to God!
That is one reason I really beleive why God moved me to name our ministry, “For God’s Glory Alone.”
Archaeologist William Albright stated, “There can be no doubt that archeology has confirmed the substantial historicity of Old Testament tradition.” Jewish archaeologist Nelson Glueck said, “Scores of archaeological findings have been made which confirm in clear outline or in exact detail historical statements in the Bible.”
But when it comes to Jesus Christ, mankind will not be saved by history but by the blood of Jesus Christ. Each one of us must humble ourselves before God and receive Him. “How mighty His wonders … from generation to generation” (Daniel 4:3).
From everything I have been through in my life, came my life verse:
“But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.” -Acts 20:24
