    One of the messages I pray that is gathered from this book is that God "Redeems, Restores and Rewards." If God can do it for me, He can do it for you. "From Serving Life to Serving Life" is God's redeeming power through faith in Jesus. The devil doesn't win in this story. God's grace is available to all. The life sentence, like the children of Israel, made me cry out to God and God heard my cry and turned his ear to me. Yet I had to go through some things in order to gain integrity, maturity and value. Whatever you are going through is merely a tool to bring you to the knowledge and the power of God. The life sentence allowed me to see that prayer works, and that God is alive and that God is able. In it my faith has built my trust and I know my help comes from GOD. So now I am serving life by living through my faith and allowing Jesus to live through me. I suppose there's a great deal more to share and we will in time but, for now this is From Serving Life To Serving Life
