Quotations

I was 54 years old, a recent widow and the mother of a disabled daughter confined to a wheelchair after an auto accident. My income consisted of some Social Security and money from a small insurance policy that was fast disappearing. What was I to do?

Prayer & Recovery

Yes; I conquered lymphoma cancer through prayer and an easy healthy diet ;
when I am truly trying to live all of Christ's commandments, praying to my Eternal Father in Heaven, closing my prayers in the name of Jesus Christ, I have learned the truth
of my great great grandmother SARAH STUDEVANT LEAVITT's statement "The fervent and effectual prayer of a rigtheous man (person) availeth much," saith the Lord.
