Health Socks-Insoles

By Jean Leave a Comment

A good friend, Geri Gates, told me about new health socks and insoles. At first it seemed like a silly idea to me. When she told me some of the stories, it piqued my interest and I have since gotten involved with the company. I saw a number of videos like one that shows how a man with tremors didn’t tremor when the socks were on.

The pattern on the bottom of the socks relaxes your inner brain. That helps you to focus and it’s fascinating how well it works!

Geri is a certified personal trainer and has a fitness class for Seniors. She told me several stories about how the product helped her clients. One of her clients had problems with her feet swelling and pain at night. That stopped from the first night she wore the socks!

I put up a page with some of the videos on one of my health websites. If you would like to learn more and to see the videos they are posted here – Health Insoles and Socks.

Here is one of the very short videos showing how they help with a woman with MS stop tremoring. The socks also help athletes, etc. There are more studies on the link above or the ‘Learn More’ button below.

I personally noticed that I fall asleep faster with the socks. My hairdresser, who stands all day, she said she could definitely tell the difference when wearing the socks. My friend Daphne told me she just feels more balanced when she’s wearing her insoles.

The socks are shipped from the US or Canada and available from the above link or you may contact me. I have quite a few socks and insoles in stock here, at the house, to sell. They cost around $30 for the socks and $50 for the insoles. There is also a new thinner insole for $40 or less.

The Story of Reinhard Bonnke

By Jean Leave a Comment

In our Women’s Bible Study, I sometimes like to show inspirational videos from YouTube when we are in between Life Group studies from our church. Last week we watched some of the videos about Reinhard Bonnke. He was a ‘simple’ German missionary in Africa. He ended up leading millions to Christ through large gatherings. The ladies loved watching these videos, so I thought you might be blessed by them too.

Here is his beautiful story:

I remember hearing about him years ago. As he mentions in the video, he had dreams of Africa being covered by the Blood of Jesus in 1972. Later he learned it was the very same year that a very famous evangelist in Africa decided to stop doing large crusades. He shivered like a leaf when he realized that his calling may have been because this other man stopped. God uses men and women who are willing to say ‘YES’ to his call on their lives.

Here’s a 5-minute video of the outreaches he did in Nigeria. Amazing!

I have heard him describe himself not as a ‘Great Man of God’ but rather as simply a man with a ‘Great God’. God equips us as we step out and serve Him by serving others.

Years ago I was in a Small Group with Randolph & Johanna Michaelsen. We were meeting in an apartment community room and an agitated young woman came in off the street. She said, “You Christians say you have to love God with all of your heart but there are so many hurting people that need love. You should be helping them instead!” Randolph had the perfect answer for her.

He replied that it was true God wants us to love him will all our heart. But, what she didn’t understand was that when we love God will all of our heart, He gives us all of His Love. Then, we can go to hurting people and love them with His Love that far exceeds what we could have done with our own strength.

Margaret Mayfield’s Amazing Testimony

By Jean 6 Comments

The Testimony

Omaggy_and_stephen_morin_killerne of my favorite testimonies is about a day in the life of Margaret Mayfield. The mother of one of my prayer partners heard her at a church in Texas. My friend’s mother bought several of the cassette recordings of the testimony and Marion, my friend, shared it with us.

I had planned on attaching the YouTube video, but apparently it has been taken down. Margy had been memorizing Scriptures and one day a serial killer by the name of Stephen Morin kidnapped her. He was wanted in several states and had just raped and killed a woman the night before.

She thought she was going to die that day, but instead God clearly spoke to Margy to pray for him. And after she prayed, Margy said the atmosphere in the car changed. He was the most demonic looking man she had ever met.

In the next 10 hours, she witnessed to him about how God loved him and could forgive him of all of his sins. There are so many cool miracles weaved in the story. He did receive Christ as his Savior and was caught later that night.

Stephen was sentenced to death. But, in his last years in prison he led many other criminals and guards to Christ. All of the rage and anger that had controlled his life was gone. Instead, he was filled with God’s love and wanted other’s to know the freedom he found in Christ.

Margy’s husband was so freaked out about almost losing his wife that he forbad her from ever seeing Stephen again. Except, one morning they both knew that she was supposed to see him. Normally it takes months to get a clearance to go inside the jails, but all the jail guards let her pass through.

Stephen came out in shackles and just started crying. Stephen told her it was his birthday that day and that the night before he asked God to let him see that lady once more.

His Last Words

Stephen was killed by lethal injection in 1985.

His last words were:

“Heavenly Father, I give thanks for this time, for the time that we have been together, the fellowship in your world, the Christian family presented to me (He called the names of the personal witnesses.). Allow your holy spirit to flow as I know your love as been showered upon me. Forgive them for they know not what they do, as I know that you have forgiven me, as I have forgiven them. Lord Jesus, I commit my soul to you, I praise you, and I thank you.”

You can listen to the 35 minute audio of Margy’s riveting testimony here – http://withusisgod.org/2009/07/margy-mayfield/

It’s an amazing testimony of the many stories and miracles of that day.

7 Newer Easter Songs

By Jean Leave a Comment

Christians have been celebrating Resurrection Sunday for a couple thousand years. In the Scriptures it says to sing to Him a new song. Here are 7 newer songs that speak of and celebrate what Christ has done for us on the Cross!

1. Grace To Grace

This is a beautiful new Easter song by Joel Houston and Chris Davenport. It’s a new Hillsong Worship song.  

2. I Will Rise

Because of the Resurrection of Christ, we will also rise one day to be with Him! This is a wonderful song by Chris Tomlin. He wrote a few years ago and I sang it at a memorial service. 

3. How Can It Be

This is a newer song by Lauren Daigle. It begins with the hopelessness of knowing our sins, but yet Christ breaks our chains and sets us free. This is certainly the message behind Easter! We are free in Him.

4. This Is Amazing Grace

Phil Wickham wrote this song this song a few years ago. God’s amazing grace is that God laid down His life to set us free.

5. Because He Lives (Amen)

This song by Matt Maher is a new song with the title of a very familiar hymn ‘Because He Lives’. There are hints of the original hymn in the song, but it’s fresh with new words and a modern beat. It’s a joyful song that speaks of our victory in Christ.

6. Forever (Live)

This sweet song by Kari Jobe speaks of the cross and how the stone was rolled away. The Resurrected King is forever risen and is alive.

7. At The Cross (Love Ran Red)

This is another newer song by Chris Tomlin that speaks of the cross. We owe it all to Him, the Savior of the world!
