‭‭Psalm‬ ‭118:24‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Amazing Day!!
Get Fit in the Garden welcomed The Church at Triple Cross and Ocala Aglow Community Lighthouse Saturday morning!

Reminder…
The same God that brought a man back to life.. that chased demons from a child.. that made a blind man see.. is the same God today! Ultimate Healer..
My buddy Robert Andres has total healing today! He used to have to wear a brace on his leg.. today he was jumping up n down with no brace on. Thank you Jesus 🙏🏽🤙🏽

An abundance of food was prepared, two great messages, and good fellowship and prayer. Truly The Holy Spirit filled this space.

Abundant Life!

So the life of Rocky the Raccoon was saved on Friday. He fell about 80’ from the oak tree at Get Fit in the Garden. He was injured but survived..Marion County Animal Control assisted, and he went back to his tree. ❤️🙏🏽

Then Saturday was awesome as well. We had a good group gathering, good burgers, fries and chicken stir fry… good relationship building, and message. Thanks to all the volunteers that made it happen.

Saturday was a great day!

Hot coffee, great food and lots of Jesus.

Gradually getting back to the workouts , we gave a couple of sleeping bags to who did the most push-ups. Fun times! One guy did clapping push-ups so he got a blanket.

Looking forward to next week, hosted always by Church at Triple Cross Ranch. We will need more to go boxes because there will be an abundance of food that day 🙏🏽

Today is the day the Lord has made, rejoice and be glad in it!

What an amazing day at the Garden today!!
Started out not so amazing tho... I start to head down there only to see yet another flat tire. 🙄 No success pumping it up. So I changed everything ( Roxy cart, saddlebags, phone holder etc) over to an old bike with only one gear that works. Here we go .. only about an hour late.
I stop at Racetrac to get breakfast sammiches.. and one of our homies comes up.. “ There you are! I just left from the Garden.. I told them you would be there.. even if you’re late!” 😊
So after all this .. I thought we would just have a “hangout and talk” day..no speaker just sitting in the benches.

Well.. “In a man’s heart beats plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps” .. so my RAWlove ministry girls show up and suggest we offer anyone that has something to share or a testimony. Awesome.. yes! We get the speaker out, music going, and start asking people.
Tammy comes to them in pain, she just left the hospital with a concussion. They gave her meds but still she is in major pain trembling.. her whole body!
We gather around her praying boldly ..asking God to take this pain away, give her relief. After only a few minutes she is smiling, dancing on the stage! HOW GOOD IS OUR GOD?!
That was some quick answer to prayer! I was blown away, I’ve never witnessed healing like that.

Whatever you may be going through.. just know that God is still in the Miracle Business. In His timing .. all we have to do is ask and it will be given to us. Pray boldly..faithfully.. knowing our Daddy wants the best for us.
