My name is Elouise, I am a 54 year old woman that has been broken in many ways with my first marraige and also with my health with my daughter automobile accident that left her paralize from her waist down but my God knows my heart and he has been standing beside me all the way, God has been so good to me, no one knows how good he has been, that is why I praise him and lift him up because he is so worthy,and I love him so much. First I married at age 20 to a man that abused me, my self esteem was so low and I was so young not knowing what to do I lived in the abuse until I was beaten down when I was 8 months pregnant,my baby lived and she was 9 months old when he was killed in automobile accident, I had been sheltered all my life by my parents. I didn't know how to cope with life, I shelter myself and my baby from the world after the death of my husband. I just stayed with her for 5 years not leaving my home, not knowing what to do. but God! he picked me up from there and lead me through the path of rightousness, I enrolled in school,my mother kept my child and I started my journey out in the world, I didn't even know how to drive a car but I learned fast, it was only God's grace that lead me to the right path, thank you Lord! My daughter grew up to be a beautiful young teenager and at age 18 she had an accident which left her paralized from her waist down, she was on her way to church. I was standing up in the choir at church singing when I got the call that she was in an accident right down from where we lived, and I heard a voice from God saying I have to fight, because I was in a battle for the Lord, and I have been fighting every since,binding satan in the name of Jesus. My daughters accident was so devastating to me, I totally lost it, my life had never been the same, so through taking care of her and helping to get her where she need to be in life the stress was so high on me, It made me sick and I had to go through surgerys after surgery, I have had a total of 10 surgery some was very severe,but God He is still here standing by, by his stripes I am healed! He is guiding and directing my path. I also have a 22 year old son, he is doing well, and daughter is doing well also, she is working and has a daughter of her own,which is 9 years old,and living on their own. Praise God! they are such a blessing to me she could have been dead, but my God saved her, thank you Jesus! Then after 13 yrs God sent a man in my life that changed my life, he is a good man and nothing is too good for me, after God, he is my rock, he has stood by me all the way,supporting me always. He has been awesome through my illnesses, and with my children, our marriage is solid, he loves me. I lost my Job after 19 years because of my illness, I can't work any more. If God has done all this for me I know he can do it for someone else, just trust him he is standing with open arms waiting for you, call JESUS, and he will run to you. Now, I have a joy and a peace that passes all understanding, through all I have gone through. I have found favor with God, I am totally blessed, Jesus Christ is my all and I will not stop praising an loving up on him, I hope this testimony will touch somebody's heart and blessed them, because Jesus is real and he lives inside of us all. may God bless and keep you. No weapon formed against me shall prosper! isaiah 54:17
