MY GOD, YOU DIDN'T FORSAKE ME AFTER ALL. SO SORRY ...
MY GOD, YOU DIDN'T FORSAKE ME AFTER ALL. SO SORRY THAT I EVER DOUBTED YOU WHEN I WAS FACED WITH UNCERTAINTIES. PLEASE FORGIVE ME AS I SHINE THE LIGHT ON YOUR PRESENT HELP IN TIME OF TROUBLE.
I grew up in a children's home in Nashville, Tn called, Tennessee Preparatory School. By the grace of God that same children's home hired me as a Child Care Worker and placed me in a cottage caring for 14 teenage girls under one roof.
My return to the children's home as a Child Care Worker made the Newspaper. You see the children's home only hired former students to work in the cafeteria not one on one with current students.
I was truly Blessed by God himself to have been hired as a Child Care Worker. All the girls called me Mom. Oh but little did I know that 10 years up the road something Horrible that would turn out WONDERFUL would change my entire life and would uproot me from Nashville, Tn forever.
Atlanta, Ga. April 1993: Found me in Georgia Baptist Hospital facing the birth of a 1 lb. 11 ounce baby boy who was given 24 hours to live. What was a Nashville, Tn. pregnant woman doing in Atlanta, Ga? I was in Atlanta for a Spring Revival and I got sick and was rushed to Georgia Baptist Hospital by way of ambulance. My whole world changed. I was no longer to be the former student/Child Care Worker from Nashville, Tn. I turned out to be a grieving mother at the bedside of a 1 lb. 11 ounce baby boy born 4 months too early with only a life span of 24 hours. GOD, WHERE ARE YOU FOR MY NEW BORN BABY FACING A SHORT LIFE SPAN? I turned to the pastor of the church that I had been attending for the Spring Revival and I asked WHERE IS GOD? Read what is about to unfold real careful: God didn't come through the Revival pastor. It is strange how The Spirit of God came but he came. The Lord came through a Blood Bank lady name DEBORAH COLLINS.
I was sitting in the cafeteria of Georgia Baptist Hospital and this stranger walked up to me and said, I SEE THE GLORY OF GOD ON YOU. My God, you didn't forsake me after all. I didn't know Deborah Collins at the time of her approaching me and speaking words I had never heard before. I SEE THE GLORY OF GOD ON YOU. Yes, Yes The Glory of God showed up through Deborah Collins who worked in Georgia Baptist Hospital Blood Bank. Get it, "Blood Bank"! Jesus shed his Blood many years ago to save us from our sins and to hear our humble cry.I just got this understanding as I am sharing How Great God Is to the children of men and he has not Forsaken his people. My son will be turning 21 years old come April 8, 2014 thanks to God that dwells in Deborah Collins a Blood Bank Angel in Disguise. Peace and Amen
