Where We Are Now

After finding and remediating mold twice in our Colorado home, we abandoned ship in October 2008. Because of the high levels of exposure, our entire family was affected. After months of seeing different specialists for all of the problems, we came to Arizona to begin comprehensive treatment to rid our bodies of the toxic buildup. In August 2009 we moved into a larger home, four bedrooms, south of Tucson, north of Mexico. I am doing my daily radio program/ writing from that location. Thanks for praying for us. We really feel it.

Tuesday, July 8, 2008
I was out with one of my older daughters. We went to a movie at one of those artsy theaters that was showing a film from Israel. We enjoyed it (sort of), and enjoyed each other's company (really) and then headed back to her apartment.

I had my cell phone off and when I got back in the car I turned it on and saw I had a message. I went through the steps to retrieve the messages, thinking it might be something important. It was my 7 year old, Brandon. It wasn't important.
It was HUGE!

Here's the text of the phone call. I wish you could hear the almost musical quality of his voice.

BEEP

"Hi dad. This is Brandon. I have good news. I prayed and I became a Christian. I am with the Father. (musical noise) its' me, Brandon. he he he."

In the background you can hear Andrea say, "He'll love that."

I did.

The inside story of this is that Brandon has been listening to Adventures In Odyssey this summer and one episode has Eugene becoming a Christian. The line, "I am with the Father," is directly from that episode.

What a precious call. I may not keep it forever because my computer and the phone it's stored on are both getting old. But I'll never forget the message.

Chris,

Praise the Lord for the amazing news from your son. What a blessing for him and your family. I rejoice with you guys.

Today's CFL broadcast was a deep blessing. I really believe that the Lord had you play the last clip to encourage me to keep praying for my cousin. He is 29 and is heavily addicted to drugs. He is in a very desperate place. Our family has been continually praying for him. We pray that God will intervene and transform his life from the inside out.

Today's broadcast brought tears to my eyes and brought me to my knees, assured, yet still broken, that the Lord will bring David to Christ. Thank you. I give thanks to God for the encouragment today.

prayerful,
Melanie, OH
