My story offers hope to the hopeless. It offers healing to those who are wounded. I had a broken heart. Because I did not know how to deal with the trauma and loss of a son and the conflicts of life, my soul became shattered. Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted. There is no sin too horrible for God to forgive. Come! Father waits. If we are willing to shrug off the fear of man and embrace the truth of Scripture, we can be made whole. My soul is restored. God also healed and released the artist in me.---That part which had been destroyed because of a shattered life. I am well over 50 years old. Many Christ centered Prophets today are saying: This is the day for the 50+ generation. It is our time to Arise! I am ready!
