Hi, Friends! Please share with others if you will.

I still need immediate help . I waited 2 weeks to start a job at Sam’s Club while waiting for Columbus City Schools to find a position aligning to accommodations . Last week , today, and tomorrow they are sending us home early , and I’m losing much needed funds for bills that are due in the next week. I was going to get paid $900 Jan 1 for the hours I have worked last week and this week , but now they are cutting hours . I need help with electric $70, gas heat $70, internet $40, cell phone $55, insurance $145 , car gas $100, and $400 to complete rent . Nothing seems to be working. I continue to trust God to provide for my needs .

This year has been the hardest and the best, all in one. The Lord has told me that presently this is a "test of faith", "saints sifted", and that the evil one "has asked to sift me like wheat" (Luke 22:31).

I have been on unpaid approved medical leave for over a year and am currently waiting to be placed back in a position that aligns with ADA accommodation for several conditions that qualify as disabilities. Last summer, I had to flee my home due to alcoholism, narcissism, and domestic violence. I was homeless for 7 weeks this past summer, stayed at night at the homeless shelter for 5 weeks. In June, I rededicated my life to Jesus, and God has restored my life.

Jesus has taught me so many things and has brought me miraculous inner healing and deliverance. I have learned to live in step with the Holy Spirit, to listen to Him, and hear His voice for leading and guidance. The evil one had me in so much bondage from prebirth trauma, generational curses in the bloodline, curses others spoke over me, curses I spoke over myself, abuse and trauma that I went through, and my disobedient choices which all gave legal right to the enemy to hold me captive to do his will as 2 Timothy 2:24-26 states. The evil one's final assignment was to take my life, but Jesus came rushing in with Amazing Grace and Mercy, and said, "Leave her alone!" and redeemed my life. God was lovingly and affectionately pursuing me all long (Jeremiah 31).

I was full of unhealthy repetitive cycles and patterns, restlessness, anxiety, depression, fear, insecurity, low self-esteem, self-doubt, excessive planning , excessive giving, excessive fixing, impulsiveness, double mindedness, hypervigilance, doubt, seclusion, isolation, confusion, worry, etc.

After confession of my sins, forgiving those who have hurt me, forgiving myself for my destructive disobedient decisions and for how my choices caused destruction in my son's life, re-aligning myself with Jesus Christ , telling the evil one that he no longer had any legal right to my body, will, mind or emotions, and that any permissions or agreements made with him in the past were now destroyed through the blood of Jesus , I was filled up with the Holy Spirit and He ushered in Christ's rest, peace, calm, stillness, joy, love, faith, hope and abundant life that Jesus died on the cross to give to us freely. Now I will not allow any of those negative damaging emotions to enter. I can't believe the rest and peace that I am now experiencing.

I have also heard the call from God to remain single for the rest of my life, to put all my passions into advancing His Kingdom till I reach heaven's shores (1 Corinthians 7:8). The harvest is ripe, but the workers are few. God gave me this call in 1999, but I didn't obey. In 2020-2022, I obeyed the call for a short time.

Columbus City Schools in August blessed me with Catastrophic Leave and gave me donated sick days, so that I could get in an apartment and be able to pay my bills. I had a surgery in March and 2 surgeries in August at Cleveland Clinic. I am so grateful that God restored my life before my son's wedding October 21. I figured I would be back to work by now. Accommodations were turned in October 24. I had an appointment with the district Doctor on Nov 12. HR is trying to find after the start of the school year a position of "teacher on special assignment" like I have been for 7 years as a School Improvement Coach and Instructional Coach of Teachers which aligns to my accommodations.

While waiting, I have ran out of monies. Since I have experienced homelessness before, the enemy wants to put fear, worry and anxiety on me, but I refuse in the name of Jesus. I have tried to get a job in the meantime, have had 2 interviews and a job offer, but nothing solidifies. God told me that nothing is coming right now, because He wants me to learn to trust Him to feed me just like He feeds the sparrows--they do not sow, reap or store food, because God feeds them (Matthew 6). He has repeatedly told me "that my God will meet all my needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19). He is building my faith to fully trust in His provisions. It is a test of my faith. I am in a storm, but God is the God of the storm. I do believe, and I do trust in Him.

This is very hard for me, because I am used to working hard to provide for myself. I know this storm is going to pass, but I need some help and provisions from God until I get back to work to pay rent , essential bills, and pay for functional medicine supplements that are daily medicines. God told me that "Go Fund Me" would be like "BEE nado"---God's abundant provisions, so I am stepping in the water. God told me that I had to step in the water for the waters to part. He also has told me to start sharing on YouTube my testimony and the messages that the Holy Spirit is giving me to teach others about Spiritual Warfare for Inner Healing and Deliverance from the enemy's bondage, so that others can truly experience the freedom, joy, praise, peace and rest that Jesus died to give us.

All summer I kept hearing God say to me "my people perish for a lack of knowledge " (Hosea 4:6). I was definitely perishing because of a lack of knowledge of how the evil one blinds us and holds us (even believers) in bondage, the authority we have in the name of Jesus Christ through His shed blood on the cross for healing and deliverance, the peace and rest that comes with the filling of the Holy Spirit, how the Holy Spirit (God in us) is our Counselor, Teacher, Comforter, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby (John 14), and that we can have a personal intimate relationship with Him conversing with Him throughout all our days.

God has also told me to in the meantime set up my Life Coaching business to help people find inner healing and deliverance from what holds them captive, so that is my next endeavor. I earned my Life Coach certificate in 2015.

I am asking if you will pray to the Holy Spirit if He is leading you to give funds to help provide God's provision for me right now until I get back to work. Whatever you give is greatly appreciated, no matter the amount. God bless you richly, and He will give back to you in return. It's a Kingdom principle.

Feel free to reach out to me. I would love to hear from you and catch up. If anyone wants to ask me to walk beside them to find inner healing and deliverance, please feel free to contact me.

Grace and peace to you. May God's face shine upon you.
