Loading at a customer in Lima, Oh.

When first moved family to Kansas went to work moving furniture for North American Van Lines. Met several drivers who were willing to hear the encouragement in the testimony .One such driver was “Joe” heard my testimony remembered in detail even exact location where we met.

“Joe” did not respond to accept the salvation invitation. 11yrs. later he now works for the same company as I and was in Lima when I pulled in, funny how GOD works all things out.

After meeting him again as he recognized me and I him we began to talk. Conversation went down path of what had happened since we worked together last.

Saw several miracles take place he then opened up to salvation invitation. Met a few weeks later and he asked for a favor would I return his wife’s DL to her as was going home from there, he was headed to East Coast.

My wife and I met her at a local mall and when inquiring had she noticed any change her confirmation prompted me to ask about her eternity destination.

Invited her to ask JESUS to become LORD she said, “OK but can we go outside?” Yes, we can and then she entered into salvation

#2Prayed the salvation prayer with another man just entering Truck Driving profession the LORD allowed us to meet again 2 weeks later at a meat plant where we both were loading and we decided to BBQ steaks and asking other drivers would they also like to have steaks BBQ took up collection and after second run to store had cooked 13 steaks.

One man listened closely as my testimony set him aback with a shock when after the former lifestyle which had been including drug dealing alcohol abuse and living as a Biker for 16yrs. coming to Jesus for FORGIVENESS healing, deliverance and salvation.

Came over to my Truck and shared his pain and nightmares and had been shot

A undercover D.E.A. and Border Patrol working as Truck Driver for cover to penetrate drug rings and illegal aliens.

My reply “My JESUS can heal you, deliver you, and save your soul Can I pray for you?” “Yes” he blurted. Saved Healed Deliver and born again. JESUS showed up and set him free.

#3While trucking west going to Casper Wyoming passed a US Express truck and they called to “come on over TA” in talking to them, asked were they happy? Did they enjoy whom they drove for? Were their miles sufficient to meet their needs? “If the road collapsed in front of us…. where would they end up continue on a downward spiral or would they as I shoot up into the saviors presence.”

“John 3.3 says you must be born again or you will not even see the kingdom of God.”

This brought clarity to something she did not know. This then led to her salvation.

These opportunities are becoming a normal part of the daily activities that as a believer bold and fearless to march into the enemies camp and set free the hostages he has taken from the camp of the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords

There came a lady driver had known for some time that declared she was in pain and my question to her “would you like to be healed for ever?” “Yes” she exclaimed. There on the Patio at TransAm terminal, she accepted Jesus as her Lord and savior was touched and healed.

Walked up to us her fiancé she declared, “Firewalker saved me” I replied, “JESUS saved you or you ain’t saved!” “Would you like to meet Jesus?” “Not now” “OK later dude” the next day he met me at same place and wanted what she had received! Now with one of the elders from our Church leads a Bible study at a restaurant across from the Truck stop.

Salvation each time new life GOD is praised, Baptism was performed due to unforeseen situation at a pool in local Motel.

Fellow driver had known for 5 yrs came to me in need and told him that he could be saved if he believed. He said he would pray and receive Jesus. Begin a new life Easter Sunday was first time in Church and he knew that he was saved. The following day brought family to town and found a house and joined our local church.

Driving to KC from Indy was on co. CB channel heard other drivers talking waited for an oppourtunity to talk they gave me the turn, knowing 1 of the men asked about his eternity and he replied that he was “probably going to hell.” Laughter followed they thought they had run me off. “NOT” “You don’t really want to go there that is an old cop out!” Upon learning that I was not going, to back down they got serious with me and God was waiting for them.

One man confessed he needed salvation was saved and now is reaching out to others and passing out Bibles that he got from me. Praying with and counseling offering Biblical advice, leading others home.

The lost and hurting are the ones that JESUS came to save not the healthy and ones who are not for the healthy do not need a doctor.
