Meet Lysa TerKeurst, one of my absolute favorite authors and speakers!
Listen to her speaking sample about her search for true, intimate, unconditional love and how she realized years later (after being married and having a few children) that only one person could fill her cup and need to be loved completely, make her feel beautiful and satisfy the deep longings of her heart.
Guess what?
This person isn't human, He's the Creator of the Universe and His name is GOD.
Listen to Lysa share her life-changing story:

A beautiful testimony to God's heart of compassion
7-year-old singer Rhema Marvanne beautifully belts out a classic sung most famously by Whitney Houston :)...
In the words of JESUS Christ, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10, New International Version available on www.biblegateway.com).

Miracles still happen today!
"God Always Answers Prayer"
(Poem written by Dr. Robert Schuller)
When the idea is not right, God says, "No."
No-when the idea is not the best.
No-when the idea is absolutely wrong.
No-when though it may help you,
it could create problems for someone else.
When the time is not right, God says, "Slow."
What a catastrophe it would be if God answered every prayer at the snap of your fingers. Do you know what would happen? God would become your servant, not your master. Suddenly God would be working for you instead of you working for God.
Remember: God's delays are not God's denials. God's timing is perfect. Patience is what we need in prayer.
When you are not right, God says, "Grow."
The selfish person has to grow in unselfishness.
The cautious person must grow in courage.
The timid person must grow in confidence.
The dominating person must grow in sensitivity.
The critical person must grow in tolerance.
The negative person must grow in positive attitudes.
The pleasure-seeking person must grow in compassion for suffering people.
When everything is all right, God says, "Go."
Then miracles happen:
A hopeless alcoholic is set free!
A drug addict finds release !
A doubter becomes as a child in his belief.
Diseased tissue responds to treatment, and healing begins.
The door to your dream suddenly swings open and there stands God saying, "Go!"
*Excerpted from the Book: "Positive Prayers for Power Filled Living" Rev. Robert H. Schuller.
Take it from The Prince of Egypt (true Bible story)...Listen to Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston sing about there can be miracles-- when you believe.
"If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."-- Matthew 21:22 (New International Version).

Now Behold the Lamb from The Gospel (movie)
This song from the movie, The Gospel, is a testimony in itself.
Here's to all the prodigal sons and daughters (past and present)...it's not too late to return to God:
My favorite quotes from the preacher in the song:
"As the choir begins to sing, there are some of you who are going through your own storms. Can we talk about it?"
"Don't allow those situations in your life to keep you from having a relationship with God. No, you need to know Him!"
"You know many of us talk about, 'Oh I'm going to get to know God tomorrow.' TOMORROW ISN'T PROMISED and you can have salvation TODAY!"
"There is no perfect church! If there's a perfect church, it stopped being perfect the moment you and I walked in! BUT there IS a perfect God!"
~*~
Can I get a Hallelujah, AMEN? :)
*You can read about The Prodigal Son (true story) in the Bible via Luke 15:11-32 which you can view online (http://www.biblegateway.com/).
