I appreciate sharing my experiances , and thank you for you kind words and encouragement>
I have been told many atimes by my wife to write it into a book, i do however made many journals.
I can only imagine how each of our lives is a Noveled Chapter unto itself, written by Our Father to become the next chapters in the Book of Life of the Lamb of God.
Peace

Wow...Roger! I never thought of it that way!
I keep journals too. I used to think that I would try to write a book years ago....but what could I say that would really help another person? My story is really only important to me and God. Still I enjoy other's stories? Can't wait to see how this pans out! Peace!

Dear Roger
Thank you brother for your kind words, they mean a lot to me coming from a person of your character, resilience and faith in the face of deep adversity, it is just incredible. Your house on the sand has certain crashed and I believe your dear wife's advice to have your story published is one of the best there is. How edifying it would be for the millions who read it and what an excellent opening for the message of our truly loving God to be delivered to those in the dark locked in Babylon.
I have not been to see a movie from heaven only knows when because of the drastic shortage of story lines used by the film makers where pornography appears to be the only attraction. How nice it would be for them to open their eyes and pick this story up and release it to the world. I for one would certainly be filling a cinema seat once again.
Go to it, brother, here's your opportunity to serve your God and benefit yourself and family at the same time. It is God's way, I believe, of saying to you, "Well Done" in overcoming. Is this not the story of Job that you are reenacting? I do believe it is! "Then Job answered the Lord and said, “I know that You can do all things, And that no purpose of Yours can be thwarted. ‘Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?’ “Therefore I have declared that which I did not understand, Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.” ‘Hear, now, and I will speak; I will ask You, and You instruct me.’ “I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear; But now my eye sees You; Therefore I retract, And I repent in dust and ashes.” ....."The Lord restored the fortunes of Job when he prayed for his friends, and the Lord increased all that Job had twofold. Then all his brothers and all his sisters and all who had known him before came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house; and they consoled him and comforted him for all the adversities that the Lord had brought on him. And each one gave him one piece of money, and each a ring of gold. The Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; and he had 14,000 sheep and 6,000 camels and 1,000 yoke of oxen and 1,000 female donkeys. He had seven sons and three daughters. He named the first Jemimah, and the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch. In all the land no women were found so fair as Job's daughters; and their father gave them inheritance among their brothers. After this, Job lived 140 years, and saw his sons and his grandsons, four generations. And Job died, an old man and full of days." (Job.42:1-6 & 10-17).
I have no advice to give as to what you can do with the 14,000 sheep and 6,000 camels, brother, but the Lord knows what He is doing that's for sure so He'll provide a reason.
My humble thanks to you, your wife and family for the lesson you have taught me and those on this forum. Keeping posting, as your posts and spiritual insights are invaluable spiritual food for your hungry brothers and sisters here.
God bless you brother,sister and family in our joint walk in Christ.
You're suffering weakness and pain...so hard to bear,
Both sorrow and trials too.;
But they will not last….they’ll pass away.
‘Cause He’ll measure ….and bring you through.
Not a moment too long will they remain,
Though ‘tis hard to bear… ‘tis true,
But in the end with spiritual strength.
He’ll measure….and bring you through.
Then in a wonderful way He’ll reveal Himself
In a way, so completely and entirely new,
Because as Almighty God you’ll know Him then.
As He measures…and brings you through.
Love in Christ Jesus.
