You have so much to be thankful for. Life has been freely given to you. In God's eyes, nothing on earth is more important than you, nothing. It's what He thinks and says that make something so; not, when in contradiction, what people think and say. You are the total sum of one word: "Precious".

As she sat in her plane seat, Susan Wilcox prepared for the adventure of her life: being a Baptist missionary in Spanish Harlem, New York City for the next two years. What occurred in those two years were events that not only changed the way she viewed herself and those around her, but what she understood of where God called her to be. Susan is actually the character name of Judith Tillman, who wrote this book, They Called Her Sister, from the extensive notes she took as part of her monthly reports as a missionary in New York. For as long as Susan knew, she felt in her spirit that God had called her to serve and share His love with the people of New York City, primarily those in poor, disadvantaged communities. After weeks of waiting to hear of an assignment, she was finally contacted to serve at Capilla Bautista de Harlem in New York. Growing up in a small, rural town in Colorado, Susan had already had her share of difficulties even before encountering those in New York. Her father was an alcoholic war veteran who didn't know how to uphold his responsibilities to his family until he came to know Jesus personally. The family struggled until God intervened in their lives, leading Susan to also give her heart to Jesus and feel in her spirit God's prompting her to New York. Fast forward to her two years, she experienced much within the city that never sleeps: seeing the slimy caverns of the subway, being assaulted, sharing God's love with drug addicts, and doing everything from serving food to teaching young children to read. The stories in They Called Her Sister reflect an awareness of how God can speak into a person's life, especially one seeking God's will, and bring them into some life-changing experiences.

My life was not one ofglorious wonderment every day.There were memories that I remember as great ones and memories that I would like to forget. Fortunately, they are etched in my mind as a reminder of the goodness of God and where He has brought me from. Some of you may judge me for the mistakes I have made along the way. The great thing about mistakes is that they can be corrected and learned from. You see, I am the only one who can tell my story. It was God alone that came to my rescue. There were many inner struggles that caused me to doubt why I existed. After all, what was so special about me that I could ever be loved? God was there when I experienced pain in the worst way, and it was my heart that was open to receive the best love ever given to me. That LOVE...Jesus Christ. Life is about living and realizing that every breath counts and should not be taken for granted. I find comfort in knowing that I am forgiven, and I also have forgiven. When it was all said and done...I chose life. April Young resides in Virginia with her husband Micheal.

"This is how the judgment works: the light has come into the world, but people love the darkness rather than the light because their deeds are evil" (John 3:19, GNT). Humans are groaning, lost with little hope of survival. Innocent souls are crying out for impartial minds to come into the mission field and speak through the darkness about drugs, anger, selfishness, jealousy, and the like. When we look around and see our leaders taking part in all manner of sin, we can become discouraged because we know they are building temples for the ungodly. We have it on good authority that some leaders (overseers, elders, politicians) are not above reproach. They are violent, quarrelsome, and lovers of money. Come, join the army that is rising to fight the darkness. Join us, and "no weapon forged against you will prevail" (Is. 54:17, NIV). We must use the freedom in Christ to leave the darkness and embrace the Way and the Truth. "Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children" (Eph. 5:1, NLT).

Forgiveness Is Power! is an uplifting look at sharing God's grace as author Roosevelt Northern reveals to you the divine capability that lies within your decision to forgive others...and even yourself. With a commission from the Lord Father God YHVH, in Yeshua HaMashiah, Jesus, Northern has penned this collection of stories, wisdom, and life lessons that shed a powerful light on what Northern has endured through his sixty-three years on earth--events that only he and God have known, until now.
