Southern, Sanctified (with a Yankee Twist)

religion, spirituality, christianity · EN-US

At one time, my faith in God was limited to only what I could do in the natural. I was broke, unhealthy, and no future to speak of. Now I am healthy, prosperous, and currently working on two businesses. How did all this happen? Faith! But it didn't happen overnight. I fought faith with every step I took. That is, until my wife and her father stepped in. I am from the slow moving, slow talking, slow everything south. My wife is from upstate New York where they don't even know what the word "slow" means. But she certainly know what "Faith in God" means. She started pushing me to believe things that were not in my tradition when it comes to the Bible. As I used the Bible to try to prove her wrong, all I did was prove that she was correct. We CAN be healthy, we CAN be prosperous. We CAN do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Now I want to share what I learned to people who, like me (at one time) didn't believe. Wi
