FGGAM QUOTE of The Day: This past week I read a quote by Brian Tracy, “What you take for granted, others are praying for.” WOW! Those words have really stuck with me. Yesterday I was talking to Jim Hofflander who lives in an assisted living center in Mankato, Minnesota by phone. He is my age and is praying for an apartment of his own. He is also praying to get his driver’s license back so he has the FREEDOM he once had. He lost it because of a “medical episode”. I also was talking to Shonda in Texas whose son, Stephen is in prison, and has been for four years. I met my Sister in Christ Shonda Savage, years ago at a writers conference, she just sent me this picture of her family, from left to right, hubby Eldon, son Chase, then Stephen and Shonda. This picture was taken on Father’s Day at a prison in Texas. Through all this Eldon, Shonda, Chase and Stephen have been a Godly example to us all. Just this picture, shows me the love of Jesus Christ. It shows the family unit. It has been a tough four years for Stephen and family, but they have not faltered, their faith in our Lord Jesus Christ is stronger than ever. They are an excellent testimony to us all. Can you even imagine having your loved one in prison? You see my friends, what we take for granted like our health, our house, our apartment, our drivers license, our car, our food, our FREEDOM to go when we want……others are praying for that. Please join us here at the FGGAM family and pray for Jim Hofflander and Stephen Whitworth, Shonda, Eldon and Chase. Just remember what you and I take for granted, others are praying for.
Today and all days we pray for the freedom of Stephen, we pray for release from prison. We pray for good health and an apartment for Jim! In Jesus name, Amen!
I must add that Shonda writes for God here at FGGAM, her writings inspire thousands! She is a very strong woman of God and her husband Eldon is a strong man of God! We are blessed by their testimony. Thank YOU JESUS!
If I can pray for you and yours just email me pastordewey@fggam.org
I am so blessed to have Shonda in my life. She has truly been a huge blessing to me. Aside from the fact that I’ve never met Shonda I feel a strong “sisterly” connection with her. First and most importantly we share the love of the Lord. Secondly, we both have a son in the Texas prison system. Thank you brother Dewey for putting Shonda in my path. She has been a huge inspiration to me. Thank you Shonda for your prayers, love and support. As well this ministry. I could cope if it weren’t for amazing people like Shonda Savage and all the wonderful people at FGGAM.
