Psalm 91

Every morning before we started walking for the Back to Life Movement Walk, we would read Psalm 91 and pray for protection over the team.  We were saved from propane leaks in the motor home, tornados, severe heat, sever weather in general and no major injuries!! We serve a GREAT God!  The Lord really protected the 39 walks, staff and media team :) 






"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
    will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
    my God, in whom I trust.”
For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
    and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with his pinions,
    and under his wings you will find refuge;
    his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
You will not fear the terror of the night,
    nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
    nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
    ten thousand at your right hand,
    but it will not come near you.
You will only look with your eyes
    and see the recompense of the wicked.
Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place—
    the Most High, who is my refuge—
10 no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
    no plague come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
    to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
    lest you strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder;
    the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.
14 “Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
    I will protect him, because he knows my name.
15 When he calls to me, I will answer him;
    I will be with him in trouble;
    I will rescue him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
    and show him my salvation.”


I did not take this photo,
got it off of a local news website.
This is the tornado that was less then a mile away...
Talk about protection!

Update: March 13

unPLANNED Book Review
by Abby Johnson 



unPLANNED by Abby Johnson is a true story of redemption.  Abby was director of a Planned Parenthood in Texas, who saw an ultrasound guided abortion and changed course and became a Pro-life advocate.   This book will open your eyes to some of the lies that Planned Parenthood uses at the same time, reveling the truth.  

This story revealed more about the deception Planned Parenthood uses in convincing all their employees to be pro-abortion- like saying that a baby is just a fetus, a lump of flesh.  Abby was drawn to Planned Parenthood because they want to help women in crisis, she wanted to be there for women who needed comfort.   American needs to be awaken to these deceptions and lies, so that we can expose Planned Parenthood true motives of 'helping' women, by raising the number of abortions.

The many times I have stood outside of Planned Parenthood, praying that God would end abortion and bringing healing and restoration to those who have had abortions; I have thought, "Are my prayers doing anything?  Do they really count?"  I know that those thoughts were from the enemy, trying to bring doubt and to discredit my prayers.   I know that every single prayer counts towards the ending of a death decree in our generation.   Just like it took years for Abby to fully recognize what was happening inside Planned Parenthood, but there were people praying for her outside the fence, every week!  This confirmed to me that my prayers count!  We may never know what is going on inside the abortion clinic we are praying outside of... 

But don't take my words for it, here is what others are saying....

“Unplanned is a powerful and compelling testimony of the power of prayer and love. A story of courage, conviction and conversion, the book will draw you into Abby’s life and her journey as her eyes are opened to the truth.”
Dr. Alveda C. King
Pastoral Associate, Priests for Life; Founder, King for America; Niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

“Abby walked out of the abortion industry and into my office just next door. After seeing her transformation from running a Planned Parenthood clinic to joining our efforts to help women and save lives, I believe that anyone can change their mind on abortion.”
Shawn Carney
Campaign Director, 40 Days for Life

“Think love and kindness can’t make a difference in the abortion debate? Read Abby Johnson’s story and find out how a pro-life ministry’s peaceful and respectful witness forever changed the heart of this former Planned Parenthood clinic director.”
Jim Daly
President, Focus on the Family

Abby Johnson is currently working on a documentary about her story- watch the trailer below.
