When I was a young man, I had prosperity. I was saved at nineteen years of age, but I let the love of God slip out of my heart. I know what sin is. I know the bitterness of sin. God permitted me to lose the things of the world. All I had left was a hunger for God. Then I prayed, “God, lead me to a people who know You.”

I will never forget the first time I went to pray at an Apostolic Faith altar. I had made all the restitutions that I felt God wanted me to, so that I might be on praying ground. I told God, “If You will just put peace in my heart, I will give You my life.” I had been backslidden for eleven years, but that day God put peace in my soul. It makes one marvel at God’s concern for mortal man. I just marvel that He paid any attention to me. He strove with me through those many years.

He is a marvelous Savior, and Healer too. I have seen miraculous healings in my family.  God has healed me and has healed others in my home. My son had infantile paralysis and could not stand up, but God healed him. Another son broke his arm in two places below the socket. A doctor wanted to amputate; he said he was up against something he did not understand, but would send for a specialist. The specialist said, “If some physicians saw that, they would cut the arm off.” We sent to Portland for an anointed handkerchief and God completely healed him.

God has wrought marvelous things and I want to thank Him for all the He has done.
