Yesterday I Ran - Today I Am A Warrior

Book Introduction:<br />  <br /> I walked away from everything!<br /> I didn't take or steal anything as some have believed. I just left house, cars, furniture, church, marriage and relationships. The few things I took were sentimental and had belonged mostly to my deceased mother. <br /><br /> I had packed slowly for months and everyone knew the day I was leaving. I didn't sneak away! I said, "Farewell!"<br />  <br /> After so many years my life as it existed was over! Never would anyone understand the state of despair in which I resided. For years I prayed to die every day! I wouldn't commit suicide because I believe in Hell. <br /> I definitely did not want to go there! I needed to go away...<br />  <br /> Jesus tells a story called The Parable of the Prodigal Son. He left over riches… <br /> I left to Live. Suicide had haunted me from childhood. <br />  <br /> I worked under a spawn of hell, I had a boss who tried daily to hurt me. After surviving several heart attacks, I sat in the bed terrified of death. <br /> Especially after It came so close to me. <br /> I could feel it lurking near by, one false move and it would have me bound.<br />  <br /> When I got ill I was forced out on Workers Compensation from my 28 plus year job. I wasn't too proud to beg, so I begged them! No light duty for me, they just threw me out after I was injured.<br />  <br /> By then my hands and arms had suffered injuries from years of repetitive motion. The injuries had spread through both hands, elbows, up into my shoulders and started down my back. I was diagnosed with cervical and thoracic soft tissue damage. I was in constant severe pain. Once I entered into physical therapy they discovered that my left side had a partial paralysis from the heart condition. My lower back and leg had also suffered injury.<br />  <br /> I was a wreck, unwanted, over weight, injured and ugly. So much more was going on when my marriage went into full failure. I just wanted to sit quietly in a rocking chair, read a book, serve God, and talk to myself.<br /><br /> My children were grown, my real friends were busy or struggling themselves.<br /> … Momma was in the ground!<br />  <br /> I found myself in a foreign land, with all new people. My lips were silent… I just watched and listened! I cried many broken hearted tears daily until I would fall asleep. <br /><br /> I never mentioned God unless asked. I wasn't in the mood for religious discussions. I had already been an ordained Minister for over 20 years prior to meeting them all.<br />  <br /> The families who surrounded me and cared for me through my illness and despair were sent by God to make sure I lived. I could tell many wondered… "Who is this strange lady and from where had she come?" While discerning their very thoughts and various reactions towards me... I just smiled. I loved them and they loved me. I had been given a whole new family with aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews. All of their friends embraced me and added me to their hospitality.<br />  <br /> Spiritually I was lost in a place far away from my Father's House. <br /><br /> Forgiveness and healing started forming in me when I realized… I had been clad in new clothes, a Robe and a Ring a Strength from above. I was no longer afraid to die. I was ARMED by God.<br /><br /> I was no longer a prodigal daughter but I had become a Warrior. Injured in battle I had earned my “Purple Heart!”<br /><br /><br /> Author Barbara Nutt Duffey Hammonds<br /> Book: Yesterday I Ran Today I Am A Warrior <br /> Prodigal Daughter Book Series<br /><br /> Tried in The "Fire" Ministries, Inc.<br /> A Deliverance Healing Spiritual Warfare Bible Study Clinic in California.<br /> Overseer Pastor Barbara Nutt Duffey Hammonds<br /><br /> BarbarahammondsFireMinistries<br /> #simplewalk #Itchingears #PastorBarbaraSpeaks<br /> #empowerme #Prodigaldaughter <br /> #wisdomoverwounds_wow<br /> #yesterdayiran #Makingjewels #drillsargent <br /> #armedwarrior4god #Armedwarriorforgod <br /> #prodigaldaughterbookseries<br /> #barbaraduffeyhammonds #godsgenerals<br /> #viral #viralvideos #grace #redemption<br /> #salvation #deliverancefromsin #oldschool<br /> #dreamers #visionaries #prophetsofold #wordofwisdom #propheticgifts #holyspirit #justice #lookupandlive #jesussaves #helpme #lestibeacastaway<br /> #drillsergeantseries #makingjewels #Barbaranuttduffey <br /> #evangelist #missionary #teacher #prophet #counselor #womenpreach #womenpastors #wisdomoverwounds #LAFire #DeepRootsRising #praywithpurpose #deeprootsrising
