SIGNS AND WONDERS TODAY

Supernatural manifestations or signs and wonders, as described in the Bible, will always capture the attention of people. A sign or wonder in the life of a hurting individual effectively communicates the love that our Father has for mankind. Signs And Wonders I had just entered the Spirit-filled life and, of course, all of this “supernatural stuff” was totally new to me. One particular incident tremendously impressed me. Two brothers I had recently met became dear friends of mine. Both were filled with the Holy Spirit. I decided to “hang out” with them in order to learn as much as I could from them - a good strategy because the things of God are more likely to be caught than…

THE SILVER LINING OF POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER (PTSD)

There were many things in my life that were not planned nor desired. Developing PTSD certainly was not one of them. Nor was the assault that lead to it. For me, it was like waking up in a foreign country. An outsider, within my own life. Josee St Onge was a teen in our West Island Youth group in the 80's. We love our Lakeshore family and we've kept in touch over the years. She posted this story in early 2017. I reached out to Josee in light of "Me Too" and asked permission to share her story here. Thank you, Josee. Revision Even the simplest of tasks required a revision of each step in order to be able to…

GRACE OF MANY COLORS: HEATHER’S STORY

When I first held Heather Enright's book in my hands I knew I was touching a rare treasure.  Grace of Many Colors isn't your typical coloring book. Before even one crayon touches a page of this book it gives off a colorful hue of hope. My friend, Colleen passed the book on to me. She heard Heather's inspiring story about creating her book. "It was scary, thrilling, surreal and inspiring to produce this book. It was a labor of love to redeem back everything that cancer had stolen from me. I'm using it to help anyone battling cancer - for every book purchased I'll give one away to a cancer patient." At first, Colleen couldn’t think of any friends with…

ANGELA’S STORY: NO ONE LEFT BEHIND

I'm writing this to you because I have to, because my "inside" voice says I need to. I follow the blog you write and I'm inspired and I can relate to many of the stories I have seen written.  We have been attending North Pointe for some time and over the years it has become home to us. Several Bumps Along The Way In the time that we have been attending our lives have had several "bumps" along the way, one of those bumps has been my cancer diagnosis.  When you hear the word cancer you begin to think about your life, the good, the bad, what have I accomplished, what do I still need to do. I read a…

To Write Love on Her Arms

Jamie Tworkowski, didn’t set out to start a nonprofit organization. All he wanted to do was help a friend and tell her story.
