Your videos are very authentic and full of peace, beauty and hopefulness. We all need this and every day even more. And your videos are not viewed so much, because everyone is busy gossiping about unimportant political issues and normally it really needs very much time to get more viewers or you have to push it by force via instagram, facbook, reddit, gab, etc.!

OR give it over to God :-) He will know how to market good work for his message! And I understand you so well, I lost my work too due to Corona. And before helping my elderly parents in 2015, I worked selfemployed and I know the pressure well. But then I stupidly did not try to trust God with all of it and let go. Only shortly before moving up North to my parents. And as soon as I did that all things were moving much lighter and he gave me impulses to find helpful informations and support.

This is the reason why you videos are so wonderful for me, they will be my daily reminder to trust God whole-heartedly!

Much love to you and your wife - would be interesting what advice she gave you ;-)

Dang... are you like my mentor who moved away and now we found each other again! lol

I've given it over to God... because I don't do social media. Other than my Youtube channel, which everyone who knows me can't believe I'm doing.

Listen, I lost my job, that's okay. I bounce very well and it doesn't concern me. My wife recently survived the most aggressive form of breast cancer after chemo, radiation, and a mastectomy. My oldest daughter is on the lung transplant waiting list, and will likely need a heart later. I've got 3 other beautiful children and 3 granddaughters. We are tight. We've moved across country, all of us, to be together. We each have the same tattoo, reminding us of our joint fight to keep my oldest daughter with us. This is all due to my wife, not so much me. Today my wife and I are celebrating our 42nd anniversary, not bad for a 20 year old and a 19 year old who fell in love... All of this and more, I've given over to God. Always have... One and a half years ago I had a piece of a disc in my back break off (we don't know why) and I'm healed, though I've lost feeling in my lower legs and feet. I had a laying of hands when I was 8 because of an 'incurable' bone disease in my legs. Legg Perthis. I was healed. I became addicted to the barbiturate's (phenobarbital) they put me on at age 6 to age 9. I have no memories until about age 11. I'm fine. Jesus has always been in my corner. So, it's in God's hands. people will see the videos and tell others or put them on their facebook or whatever is out there. I'm cool with that. I've lived my life believing that my job is not to put people on the spot by telling them what to do, but by doing the best I can and encouraging them to come along. Maybe it's just cause i want it to be this way but... I believe I'm being led to do these videos. I have no proof other than a feeling in my soul. Maybe I'm a fool, but I'm trying to be a good fool... and... I always kind of liked fools. I was a comedian at one time, came in 2nd as Canada's funniest man! And quit to be home for my wife and children. So, I follow my heart and if could know that one person found strength or faith to overcome something from one thing I did, I'd be happy knowing I served the Lord in that moment. It would be enough for me. We're here for such a short time, I can handle pain, love, loss, whatever... knowing the promises of the Lord await. So, I'm a fool and proud of it!

Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your challenging and also successful story with me. I am full of joy that your wife is well and strong again after this heavy treatment and that you both can enjoy your 42nd year today - how wonderful and precious is this in these times. Both of you are blessed by God with so many healing stories and challenging life circumstances which could be mastered with his help.

And I trust in God that your oldest daughter is protected, supported and healed as well. And he knows whether it will be done by surgery or by his power only, but she is safe and will always fall in his loving hands only. I will pray for her, if you want, and for your whole family so that you all can enjoy much more joyful and lightful times together as example for the Glory of God and his healing love.

2010 my mother, now nearly 86, had her first major heart attack with surgery of a pacer. Many hard years with bad condition and further critical situations followed and she was also the support for my father with his parkinson. But God was always there for her and keep her alive and luckily he allowed my father to pass away gently and peacefully in 2017. Luckily because it was very burdening for him to be restricted to less and less and because my father did not have to suffer under the whole Covid-restriction-conditions.

I wanted to share this with you, because our Father is always there for us, as you know already, and he knows the right place and the right time and a lot of helping hands. Only when I was doubting and worrying the road was hard and rough, because I lost faith in Him and I was lost in the dark. As soon as I asked for help he was there for me.

If you want, please ask God in a prayer whether it is time that you share your own stories with the world. There is a feeling in me that perhaps he wants yourselve to give witness of his work, his healing and his love. And for sure you are on mission, so keep it flowing, keep it going and growing - And leave the success all to God.

You mentioned this big factor: Let go and let God.

Dear friend, once again thank you for your words and whole-heartedly with the power of my mind and my soul given to me by the allmighty God and Creator, I wish you and your whole family all the best and much, much more: I see you all together happily enjoying a big picknick or barbecue in the mountain paradise this summer :-)

My love to you my friend and good night (here in Germany)

And I don't tell you these things to have you feel sorry or sad for us! Don't get the wrong idea. There are many many many other people who are truly suffering alone, who don't need to be but don't understand that. We're good here! We got each other and faith. Plus the knowledge that everything is temporary on this earth.

The short one was too quick, sorry for that! Then I saw your longer message and then I received a phone call and then it took me sooooo long to put my words together in English, perhaps I am too tired. Never would I have answered so harshly after you sharing with me your important message and story as well your witness of God's help in every challenge.

Now I really have to sleep - Good night and merry meet again
