Today is a day where he is finally seeing all his friends from school are now saved.Gods word does not return void. He was at his senior class and he has started praying for them and Giving God glory for his friends saved. He went to Temple Christmas break talking about life and he was talking about Temple he thought he was going to into Medicine. He thought he was going to have two children and make 6 figures. But that was not it at all. After the first semester of Temple he visited VFCC and the meal was great came for his sophomore year. His dad was against his faith. When his dad took him to school his dad saw how vfcc was former army base and it was the first time his dad hugged him. He was the president of missions and valedictorian People loved him and respected him here. After graduation he got credential in New Jersey in cherry hill. Don't want to say you went to bible college and far away from the Lord. He had so little relationship with God. He saw spiritual pride come in and left the AG. He went into a 4 year shepherding and legalism and he his name was mudd. Gil is being interviewed on tv railing his belief. Tom rove done to talk and help him. Gil appreciate Friends even though he was whack God still blessed him and got a hold of him. He wanted success but realized we are called to be faithful. God cares about the individual he is always trying to reach them. We need to stop measuring success with the world measurements. His three years at the farm were whack. Dont pray because of I have to instead pray because i get to. We need love for ministry. He bought a farm of 300 acres and made a christian community. How did he got out of bad living. He ignored promptings of the Holy Spirit during this stuff. His son died at 3 months old. Started working with a tree planting company. He started sharing Jesus to the foremen and by this he started seeing the corruption of his belief system. The more he got to love Jesus the more he loved his wife and children. And God started to heal his hurts with his oil and wine to heal the wounds.He was confirmed that he himself never stopped loving Jesus. Never to late for a new beginning a book Mr. Cardone sr. gave him. God has a plan even when we mess up. There is a God and grace he will use us. He loves the word of God!!!!!!! He is the Junior high pastor, a calling, to serve as Pastor. Its a high bar they put themselves on. L3 Learn Jesus, Live Jesus, Love Jesus.
