July 19, 2022 at 9:17 amBud was devastated when he found out that he lost his alcoholic son. But he turned to God in the midst of the tragedy. He got a knock at the door late one night and when he answered, his heart stopped beating. It was a police officer who came to report that his son Brannon no longer living. Brannon was very ambitious. He went to college and took advantage of every opportunity that was sure to make him successful. But alcohol became part of his life and it completely took over. His family tried to do all they can to help him by getting him away. But after he went to a six-month rehab, Brannon took his own life at the campsite his family always visited. Bud just could not grasp how such a thing could happen. Instead of blaming God, this tragic event made Bud eager to share the love of Christ. It made him realize that there are people who need to hear the message of Jesus Christ. He knew he just had to be more intentional about the freedom they can have in Him. He had one problem though- he did not know how to confidently share his faith. That is when he looked up how to share his faith online and came across a ministry that gave him the wisdom he needed. Though he still cannot understand why his son chose to take his own life, he wants to make sure that he tells hurting people about the hope there is in Jesus. Now he does not hesitate to share the Gospel with everyone he comes in contact with. Something To Think About🤔 🙏🏻♥️🕊

July 23, 2022 at 2:31 pmAmazing story. It’s a testimony to the fact that we just don’t know how much one life can affect so man others. JESUS said (Jn. 12:24), — ” Most assuredly I say unto you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, if produces much grain.”

July 23, 2022 at 8:47 pmI, too, lost a son. It was sudden and unexpected and so very painful, but through it all, God carried me and allowed me to share my story in print as an encouragement to others. Such a traumatic tragedy leaves us with a life-altering choice: we can run AWAY from God, or we can run TO Him and let Him hold us. We can demand answers and rail when we don’t get them, or we can trust that God is answer enough and instead thank Him for the time that we had. 🙏🏻Lord, thank You for this brother in Christ who has learned the truth of Your redeeming nature, using what the enemy meant for evil to bring about good. Help each of Your children to share their stories so that others can see what a great God we serve. In Jesus’ name I pray.
