I am so happy to see christians post.

I was very reluctant at first to even call
regarding this program. I felt guilty
as I felt I didnt have the faith.......

I would love to hear how this program is helping
you...

This is an answer to prayers.

I was reading Lucinda book "From Panic to Power" last night and I read this

Many people who suffer just need some attention. give your self permission to ask for what you need. As children, many of us got out needs met when we were ill. That was when our mothers took care of us, were sweet to us, made us our favorite foods, and let us watch our favorite shows on television. so we equated being sick with receiving attention and love."
Now that we're grown, we don't have to be sick to ask for what we want."

That is it for me. I was animic my entire child hood. I had migrains for 35 years. Nearly my entire maried life, amd I have been so insecure all my life, I was concidered stuckup in HIgh school, when the truth is, I was terified. I grew up in a one room school and I was the only one in my class, then I went to town to highschool, and there were 110 in my class in two story building, with bathrooms inside. After we aloped, I moved in to my husbands parents house for 2 months wile I cleand the mice, rabits, and spiders out of the house we were to live in. Thank God it was only 28x28, then I started throwing up, because I was pregnet, I threw up for 7 months. because my husband all but abandond me, he didn't want children for a few years, and he didn't like sick people, so he had his mother drive me to the Dr. She hated me for [traping her son, and aloping.] witch was his idea because he didn't want her at his wedding. and I was a vergin, witch she had to admit when our daughter came 9 months and 20 miniutes after I the cerimoney. But she was a champion pouter she pouted for 30 years untill she got dementia. I had to live in her yard, They were my husbands parents/boss. So I walked on eggshels for years to try to please her. My husband comes in a close second for the title of champion pouter.

I could go on as you can probably tell. but the point is I felt hated, by my inlaws/boss, and abandond by my husband, and my body started getting sick, life was hell on earth, I saw Jesus one night beside the railroad track as I was contimplating being one of the statistis that just didn't see the train. He said "it's not yours to take" and I saw him siting in the pasenger seat of my car out of the corner of my eye. I said "then you take it because I have run it in to the ground"

I went on in to town and saw my M.D. he put me in the hospital and knocked me out for a week, I was so exhosted, as my 3 month old son only slept 4 hours before waking up to eat cry himself back to sleep. I started chruch the next sunday, I took my daughter then 3 and my 3 mon. old son, that cryed all the time, after all the M.D's. I went to told me it was my nerves that was making the boy sick. I went to a specilist and found he had a hive tumor, very likly because my dad and my husband were marines, stationed in jungles wear they had G.G. shots that messed up their systems, and they had hives ever since.
I tried to learn all I could about God and Jesus, because I had given Him my miserable life. It helped, but my flesh was still on it's simpathy kick.

When I took this course I learned how to take back my life from my body's controle. With Positive self talk, and faith, I have concored my flesh, [most of the time], and more and more as I keep practicing, I have been doing this probably from birth, 57 years it will take a while to undo all that training. My head knew this for years and I tried without much sucses, many times, but by the next migrain I would say will I guess that dosn't work, and quit trying again, but this course has given me all the tools to win this, no more migrains,

Untill the last 6 days of this year, I lost my will again, and the migrains I had not had for 11 months came back.

It remindes me of when Jesus asked the man at the pool of Bethesda, "Do you want to be well" my flesh doesn't want to be well. but thanks to Lucinda's course, I am in controle of my flesh, and we are getting there, my eye Dr. is amazed even my nearsightedness is getting better. I have had to get new glases with less ajustment now 2 times.

This morning God gave me the words, and I had the courage to ask my husband for what I need, this time. He still hasn't said anything, but he is like that, he will and I have the paitence to wait, with God and the wonderfull people of God on this forum, that are praying for me, and giving me ideas, and testimonies, like I am for you right now.

Maurlee, yes! this is a program that fits the Bibles teaching, Check out Titus 2. It is very biblical.

I pray for all of you; Grace for the test, today on Joyce Meyer's calender, she wrote;
One time an old saint and a yournger believer were in prison awaiting their execution the next day when they would be burned at the stake.
As the younger man struck a match to light a candle, he burned his finger. Yelling in pian, he began to weep in agony and doubt, saying, "If it hurts ths much now to burn my finger, how can I possibly stand to be burned at the stake tomorrow?"
the Old saint, filled with the wisdom of God, answered, "Son, God didn't ask you to burn your finger, but He is asking you to die for His glory, In the morning when it is time for you to face the fire, His grace will be there to see you through the test."

As we live one day at a time, His grace will always be sufficient.
<span class="ev_code_PURPLE">There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape. that ye may be able to bare it. - Corinthians 10;13 kjv</span>
My daughter had to leave her 2 sons, with their dad as he had made her life so hard to live she had to git out to save her it. The boys are retarted, and when they were born, with this cyst on their brain, we prayed, and we asked God why, what have they done, or we done to deserve this curse of mankind for our grandsons. But the longer we knew their dad the worse he got "Mr. Total Controle, and drunk" I began to see back when my daughter wasn't allowed to talk to me, that God was protecting those boys from their life with their dad. I didn't at that time expect to see my daughter alive again, she was suicidle, and on medication so she could live with him, and he all the time blameing me, but you can't brainwash a retared child, and the SSI money protects them from his wrath, without it he would have to go to work, and no one can tell him what to do so he can't keep a job. Our daughter is now a 5th grad teacher and getting on her feet, she is taking this course, and realizing she made a mistake but God Loves her and has an awsome future for her, and her boys will be of age in 2 years to decide wear they want to live. So she is makeing a place for them. In hopes that they can get out of there too. But for now it is helpfull to know God made a way for them. when he made them in her wome. They are always happy, even though we can't see them, we know they are safe and happy in the hands of our Lord.

His Grace is so much more than enough, it is everything. God Bless you all

I have had such a wonderful breakthrough in comunication with my husband it is a true miricle, with the skils I have learned with this course, and practicing not taking offence, I was able to do all I could and stand on the promiss of God because I knew you were praying for me. Now we are getting along like never before it is more balanced I am not doing all the giveing anymore, he is paying attention to me, listening, and talking and thinking about my needs. Wow!!!!!! I love it. Thank you for all your prayers.

Tonight I am praying for you all that you are seeking the Kingdom of God, and expecting all things to follow from the thrown of God.
There will always be those who do not like the way you do things, Don't let someone else's opinioin of you determine your worth.

The Lord God is on your side, who can be against you? far greater is He that is in you than he that is in the earth. I have read the end of the book and I know we are on the winning team, don't sit on the bench get out there and play.

I like this idea, but I am new. Would it be too much trouble to explain to me how this thread works?

Do you all post your prayers? Do you pray on the thread? May I join?

CC Ryder; it is entirely up to you many people only pray, and check the thread to see if there are any prayer requests, some of us post our prayers, There are 42 including you, on this tread, praying every night at 8:pm M.T. zone you can work that out to wear you are, and some pray just when ever they can, some of us pray unceasingly, and put in every one on this thread some time in the day. It is how ever you can do IT, I know God doesn't care, when you interseed for others, and I think it helps to know the particular request, ofcourse we all have anxiety and that is a good start right there. I also like to read about breakthrouges in the lives of all of us, so we can read about the workings of God in answer to our prayers.

I came on to day because one of my e-friends sent me a prayer I liked and thought I would share it with all of you.

My Wish for You in 2007

May peace break into your house and thieves come to steal your debts. May the pockets of your jeans become a magnet for $100 bills. May love stick to your face like vaseline and may laughter assault your lips! May your clothes smell of success like fine perfume; may happiness slap you across the face and your tears be that of joy. May you have good health and be an inspiration to others. May the problems you had forget where you live! In simple words ...........
May 2007 be the best year of your life!!!

Hi this is Carol. I haven't written on here in quite awhile. It is good to see that others are keeping up the work. Nice to see new people joining in as well.
My family is going through some difficult times right now. That is taking up a lot of my time. Of course God provided as he is so able to do. I finished up the program just about the time my son's family started to unravel. It has been so good to have the tools from the program to help me to help them go through this. I just go slow and take it easy. I work hard at saying positive things. It is helping my grandaughters, I believe. They are so sweet. 6 and 8. It is a tough time for all of us, but all things work together for good to them that love the Lord and are called according to his purpose. Comforting words.
My prayers are with each of you.
Take care.
Love,
Carol

Dear Carol sveiven;
I can certainly empethise with you, when a family unravels, it is so hard you have no control, of the situation, but you can listen, and you can cry with them, and you can pray intersession for them. As I am doing for you, I pray for you and my mind has been on you this past week.

Lord God I commit Carol sveiven, unto You, give her rest, and peace to obtain the victory.
<span class="ev_code_RED">"I commit my family to God [I deposit them in His charge, entrusting them to His protection and care]. And I commend them to the Word of His grace [to the commands and counsels and promises of His unmarited favor]. It is able to build my family up and to give us [our rightful] inheritance among all God's set-apart ones [those consecrated, purified, and transformed of soul]. - Acts 20:20-32</span>
Joyce Meyer's book 'The Secret Power of speaking God's word' is so helpfull when I just can't think how to pray, for my problem I can look it up in there, May you be Blessed with Joy in the morning, and grace for the day.
