The Caller

Isn't it amazing how God works in our lives!

On a Saturday  night several weeks ago, this pastor was working late, and decided to call  his wife before he left for home.

It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't  answer the phone.

The pastor let the phone ring many times. He thought it  was odd that she didn't answer, but decided to wrap up a few things and try  again in a few minutes. When he tried again she answered right  away.  He asked her why she hadn't answered before, and she said that it  hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on their merry ways.

The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the  church office, which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night. The man that he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday  night.

The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about.  Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer."  The pastor  remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing him, explaining that he'd intended to call his wife.

The man said, "That's, OK. Let me  tell you my story. You see, I was planning to commit suicide on Saturday  night, but before I did, I prayed, 'God if you're there, and you don't want  me to do this, give me a sign now.'  At that point my phone started to  ring. I looked at the caller ID, and it said, 'Almighty God'.

I was  afraid to answer!"

The reason why it showed on the man's caller ID that  the call came from "Almighty God" is because the church that the pastor  attends is called Almighty God Tabernacle!

If you believe that God  answers prayers then pray! 

God bless!

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...
