God Saved My Life

by Janet Eriksson, posted in Healing Prayer, Healing Testimony, Prayer, Relationship with God

The enemy must be getting desperate. Two nights ago, I woke from a deep sleep at 1:30 a.m. - choking to death. It was the same sensation as taking water into your lungs while swimming, only worse. I couldn't breathe in or out. It was surreal. I was strangely calm. I had this awareness that … Continue reading God Saved My Life

Coke Cup from Heaven

This happened three years ago, but I don't think I've shared it here. So here goes. I was visiting with friends in Arkansas. One of our friends, a doctor, was hosting a table at a community resources exhibition. Another friend and I were planning to help her out at the table that day. However, I … Continue reading Coke Cup from Heaven

For a couple months, I've been facing something that is so hard. I feel paralyzed every time I think about it. I've crawled through years of trauma, one thing after another. Not only did Jesus bring me through it all; he began to turn things around and restore me. I finally reached a place of … Continue reading Beautiful

The past decade I've had major losses. Seems I barely find my footing and there's another huge loss. Don't get … Continue reading For the New Year

So many folks I know are going through one challenge after another. … Continue reading Just Stand

His Strength in Me

by Janet Eriksson, posted in Healing Prayer, Inner Healing Prayer, Prayer, Relationship with God, Trauma Prayer

I think one reason it's so easy for me to write novels is that my life reads like one. When I think of all the different kinds of trauma and crisis I've been through; my life reads like a work of fiction. How could any one person deal with so much! All the "big things" that psychologists … Continue reading His Strength in Me

You Look like Me

Walk with Me for a while. I've been waiting for you. I want you to understand that you look like Me. Endless Radiance Zephyr Heart Magnified Glorified First Born Endless as the stars Deep well Fountain Mercy overflowing Gilded The hills rejoice All for you Where you walk Angels kneel Light Beyond Above Echoes of … Continue reading You Look like Me
