my faith

By
As I was in the shower this morning it was given to me by the Holy Spirit that I should let the readers of this blog know that my faith is very important to me. It was God who has given me the idea for Frees, and, since He is so important in my life, He made it known to me that I need to tell the readers that Frees is a Christian support system. Many times it is asked: "Why would God allow people to go through such horrible things as cancer?" I believe the answer is simple. It is so that good can come of it and I hope that we can do many good things for people using this forum. I hope that anyone who reads this will see the good that we can deriveout of something which, on the surface, looks bad. I beieve that this is our mission.

Blessed beyond Measure

By PJ73
Hello to all of you: I know it's been a long while since you have seen any posts from me. But I have been going through a lot. A lot of things have changed in my life. In June 2017, I started taking classes to become a certified Healthcare musician from an online program called Therapy Harp Training program. The website if you are interested is www.therapyharp.com. I am still in that program and doing well. In 2016 I started singing at a nursing home in Lebanon, Tennessee called the Pavillion. Since that time I am singing at five nursing homes at the beginning of each month. I was asked to sing at another nursing home and I'm currently trying to get that set up. I will try to write as often as I can and continue to spread some inspiration and encouragement along the way. I was thinking while I was going over the posts on this blog that I am so blessed beyond measure, hence the title for this post. God has been so good to me in so many ways. He has given me a great family,...

God's Ways are Not Our Ways: Seemingly a Most Unlikely Dwelling Place for the Holy Spirit

By
So when my best friend was diagnosed with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis in November of 2009, I decided to read everything I could get my hands on about the disease. Books were helpful, but I decided I needed to talk with and get to know other people with MS. So I joined a Yahoo email group for people with it, and I learned a lot more. By the time that group fizzled out due to lack of participation, I had, in my view, learned pretty much everything a lay person not in the medical field could learn. I saw a suggested group on Facebook called We're Not Drunk, We Have MS. I also found the Facebook group page for the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation, and I joined that one too. I joined these groups because, knowing what I knew about MS, I wanted to uplift and inspire people with this debilitating disease. People with MS are prone to bouts of depression and hopelessness. That's where I believed, and still believe, that I could help, and the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation...

The treasure of human life

By
This morning I got out of bed and grabbed the clothes I was going to wear for the day. As I left my bedroom, I couldn't help hearing Ray sleeping in the other bedroom across the hall. How peacefully he was sleeping, drawing in long, deep breaths. _He seemed to be holding them in for a couple of seconds before releasing them, as if subconsciously just wanting to hold onto and appreciate every one of them as they came. He seemed to be drinking in the breath of the life that was coursing through his veins, the very breath of the God who made him. With every breath he took in and held, his spirit seemed to be satisfied that this life, and this sleep he was enjoying was created by God to rejuvenate him so that he could go out into the world and be Jesus to the least of these. God had created him, created life, and it was, it is, good. I went into the kitchen and turned on the coffee pot. Then, on the way to my bathroom, I stopped once more to listen to this beautiful, peaceful b...
