Miracle Man Tidbits

Miracle Man Tidbits 1/27/2024 At twenty-eight years I was told I had cancer, and at this time it was like a death sentence. I had accepted that death would be my answer, but that was before Jesus saw my repentance. Being born again was akin to winning, the lottery when I hadn’t a visible receipt. Yoke was gone, God forgave past sinning, at that moment I felt my life was complete. My thoughts were on Jesus each waking hour, and at each day’s start I made time to pray. Not fully understanding why I felt this power, but my faith was increasing each passing day. Now I’m eighty-five and quite storm weathered, More than once I’ve been told I shouldn’t be here. But to Jesus my craft will always be tethered, my life is my witness and I live without fear. After surviving the Widow Maker and three days later Sudden Cardiac Arrest, Doctors told my wife there was little hope, that it was in God’s hands. Then a sudden turn around and they couldn’t explain it telling her that a higher power had intervened. The Hospital started calling me The Protected One, Superman, Miracle Man, and once my Cardiologist referred to me as Lazarus. God is good

You really must get this story out, Tom. It is a true miracle, all the more credible because you're a real person -- and nobody's paying you to advertise.
