LOVING ARMS MINISTRY

Hello, to my dear future friends,

I am excited to introduce myself to you and to open up with you my story and how I got here. Through life experiences that I did not always understand, but God did . Those life experiences that were difficult transformed me and made me more like him. Then I could be used by him to love and comfort others through experiencing his love and comfort for me.

I believe this web site “loving arms ministry” is a call from God to be available to others ,like myself, whom, has been hurt, disappointed, fearful, loss of hope, and struggling with life. I am called today To be there for you in any way I need to be. To minister to you, to restore you, and build you up when you are down, guide and instruct you thru the word and prayer. To love you, love on you with arms wrapped around you, together in this journey we call life. I am a Christian, a mother, a nurse, a sister, a daughter, I was a lost soul until I was found by Jesus. I Knew there was a Creator but did not really understand the salvation by grace alone until many of years knowing this gospel but not always living it out. Struggling after I was saved to be good enough. At early age on I always had a desire to really know God better and deeper. Not just a weekly church attender but a deeper relationship with my Father. To walk and talk and be dependent on him for all things. Like some of you I have experienced life challenges and difficulties also.

I know the pain of losing a husband of 25 years, the father of my two children of a disabling neurological disease of 15 years he suffered. I watched him debilitate year after year till he needed to go to a nursing home. I know the pain of making that decision and seeing him, your loved one in a nursing home. I know like some of you seeing all my dreams shattered that you looked forward to as a spouse. I wanted to grow old with my first love, to share so many life experiences with our children and each other, till death do us part not knowing it would be so soon. Going through the pain of planning a funeral for a young spouse at age 47. I know about being a single mother during my husband stay at the nursing home and after he went to be with the lord. The pain of loss, of loneliness, of not being able to make ends meet financially, but somehow we did. Worrying about how my kids were going to turn out but by the grace of God they did. Knowing how it feels to be a widow, a single mother, alone, and scared. I know about losing a child in your womb that you anticipated and made plans for, but God had a different plan. God said trust me with all thine heart and lean not unto your own understanding, Aknowledge me in all thy ways and I will direct your path. I know about raising adolescents, teenagers, as a single parent. I know about anxiety, depression, fear, loneliness for I had experience all this. I know about alcoholism and seeing how this addiction ruins lives, marriages and families. In the past 3 years I have experienced a second marriage and the difficulties it brings with blended family, until you get out of the way and let God bless you with more love. I know about walking together with my second husband a week before we got married he was afflicted with Lymphoma. I did not know but now do, how difficult it is to go through chemotherapy, and radiation with them. I know as a new bride and a new marriage looking forward to great things ahead and this was not one of them so soon. I know about walking along side your daughter that is suffering with diseases in her body.

I say all of this to say I have been through a lot in my 50 years, but all for a purpose. God’s purpose. To understand pain, suffering disappointment struggles, challenges, test and trials of life. Why??????So I can help you and you can help me through this journey we call life and to be transformed into the image of God. This will not be the last test or trial of life we will experience. We need each other and we need a ministry like this one to help each other get through. We can get through with our Father, God of grace ,mercy , compassion, strength and comfort and so much more. Every test, I Iook back and I not only experienced pain but deliverance and comfort from God.

Every trial God stopped his busy schedule and gave grace to me to get through, and his grace was sufficient when I was weak. His grace starts at salvation by sending his son to die for us as a free gift that is grace. He continues to give grace daily, as we receive his grace daily to walk out this journey of life through the power of the Holy Spirit that lives in us and through the promises of the Bible .This experience of grace, forgiveness, mercy, compassion, strength, help in need, which is who God is, in each trial is better than pearls, or diamonds. To experience God is so much, that it is hard to put into words until you yourself experience him for yourself.God is real! I want you to experience that love of God through this ministry.

I want you to experience this unconditional, genuine, sincere love of god with me. I do understand pain of life and have been through a lot of life’s pain experiences as you now know. I have walked your shoes and understand.

Come walk daily with me through this journey we call life, God’s way. The only way to live life. This life we have was bought with a price, so we can have life and more abundantly.

Love you all,

God Bless
