Thanks For
Your Website
Thank
you so much for the website, and the information that is put
forth. It certainly has helped me in understanding what has
happened in the past, and will help understand what is in
store for the future. Just
a short intro to my life. I was
born and raised in eastern Iowa, never to church unless it
was for a funeral or wedding. I have an older brother, and
two older sisters. I guess that at some time when I was
little, they had received a Ouija board as a gift, and had
tried it out a time or two. (Nothing happened, from what I'm
told.) When I was in 6th or 7th grade, I somehow became
interested in UFO's, and ordered the book "Incident at
Exeter," about the famous sightings in New Hampshire, in
1965.
Throughout my early days, I had suffered pneumonia in first
grade, ear infections, and chronic bronchitis. My teeth
deteriorated at an alarming rate (Although my mom, an RN,
had me brush and floss at least 4 times a day), but I was
able to be an honor student through high school. It
was at this time that my "quest" for understanding of who I
was started, and since I loved history, read a book about
all of the archeology digs that back up the timetable that
the Bible presents. From there, questions about religion
followed, to Bible studies, and then to making Jesus Lord of
my life. It
was at this time that my "troubles" really began. My dad
hated God, and had a fit that I was associating with people
who were "Christians." One night I was awakened at 3:20 in
the morning, lying on my back, and there was so much static
electricity in the room, the bed sheets were crackling, and
my hair was on end, and I felt a VERY heavy presence in the
room. Never had I been so terrified of anything in my life
as then. I couldn't move, but I could sense this "entity"
moving around the room, stalking me? After what seemed
forever, I just started saying "Jesus, Jesus," over and over
and over. Finally sleep returned, and when I woke up in the
morning, the sun was shining, and everything was as it
should have been, except all of my Bible Study books were
hurled and strewn across the room. It had to have made a lot
of noise to do this, but my mom and dad, or myself ever
heard anything. I
could write a book about other instances of demonic attack,
interference, and of manipulation of others to numerous to
mention. I
think that Satan and his minions thought that they had me in
their hip pocket, but The Lord had other designs, and
revealed Himself to me in due time, and allowed me to make
my decision to accept Christ as my sacrificial lamb, that
His blood has covered my sins for eternity (and to all that
has accepted the price that He paid ), so that we can be
with Him when our time here on earth is done. But the road I have chosen, although straight, is made difficult by the wrath of demons, who wish all to perish, but by the grace of God, go we.
