Jane’s Story…Guillain Barre Syndrome

I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me.-2

My dear friend and spiritual mentor of many years dealt with Guillain Barre Syndrome four years ago.  Her story is amazing…and her constant reminder to all of us that indeed…”Christ is Enough”.

“We are coming up on the 4th year of having experience Jane’s story and over 45 thousand people have seen this video on the internet. This week gives Jane a chance to celebrate of sorts, for the first time in 4 years she was able to sit on the floor or kneel down and get herself back up to a standing position without assistance. She was pretty excited about that, that was one of the things that had remained after therapy for all this time so having the balance and strength to perform that was a great pleasure for her. Of all things that most impresses me in my life, my wife is that. We were talking the other day and speculating on what would be appropriate answer for her to give if asked ‘do you believe in God?’ Something happened while we were going through that experience a few years ago and I think the best answer for her is “no I don’t believe in God any more, I know Him!’ There is no one more confident, more settled about Faith than Jane. Share the video again with someone that needs Hope, Hope was constantly her companion throughout the terrible and the terrific….She is doing well, very well!” Ken, her husband

I have provided two links.  One is for the you tube video documenting Jane’s progress.  The other is her testimony that is available on the radio station website.

#Championsawards Thank you dearest Ellie!

Like so many others, I write because I believe I am to write.  I feel called to encourage others.  And yet, often I myself get discouraged and wonder what in the world I have to say that is encouraging!  That is when these “champions” encourage me!

The Champions Award is a way of saying thank you to those readers and writers who go the extra mile in support of others.

I have been blogging for over two years and I am just now really getting to know others in the blogging world.  It is a precious community full of people who care passionately about the things that they write about, and this sweet lady is no exception.

Ellie…..http://www.newcreationsministries.wordpress.com

She is funny, wise and it is a joy to read her posts.  She also has encouraged me in my blogging efforts and I appreciate her recognizing me in this dear way. She has one book, and I believe more on the way!  

While I know it is not about the recognition, I see this as another way to encourage one another….and we certainly could use more of that in this day and age!

I am so thankful for my followers and readers and all are valued by me, so I’ve selected a few others for this award:
