I went through a very dark time of depression after I retired. I worked for 53 years raised my kids myself after a divorce, and was always on the go. Apart from my business and playing bridge I had never really made a social life for myself. I would
often have a secret desire to hide away in a corner in fact I was fascinated with house
'Dugouts' that are in the opal fields here in Australia- Houses built under the ground in rocks. I secretly wanted one!
Finally. I realised that my unhappy and abusive childhood had come back to haunt me. I had always filled my mind up to stop facing it but now there was no choice. Without the hub of my large Christian business and friends there my life was totally empty. I had moved to a totally new area in order to get a suitable retirement cottage
and couldn't seem to fit in a new church and eventually I felt as though I had moved from The Lord - even though He had always been my best friend and I knew I could
always call on Him I felt I was no use to Him now. Finally, after praying for help I felt The Lord suggest looking for good Gospel music online. I googled it! My attention
was immediately drawn to some little Brazilian kids and began listening to their videos
it blew my mind! Even though they mainly sang in Portuguese their actions and obvious love for The Lord gave me a good idea what they were singing.
These kids ministered to me in an amazing way - they brought me back to Him as close as I had ever been. I tweeted to them and told them this and they tweeted back to me Little Milena said 'Ooh I love Grannies!' (in English though she doesn't use much)
Both kids are miracles and both have brought thousands to Christ. Milena's mother was told she couldn't conceive - but she did and had a BIG bouncing girl (she looks older) who began singing as a baby. Her mother is a Gospel Singer, when she went up to sing once 2-year old Milena not only followed her but insisted in singing with her. The result is, at a Charismatic convention of 20.000 Christians from all over the world... at 2 and a half she ministered to them - first- with her mother and then on her own. It is clear the child obviously knew the Lord at that early age.
The second child is Jotta. When he was born he had severe encephalitis his parents were told he wouldn't make it. He survived very frail the effects of the illness stayed with him. However at 5 yrs he began singing and ministering and became well-known as a singer and evangelist. He won several awards. At 12 yrs his voice broke. He not only lost his voice but his illness began making him blind and deaf. Jotta had become so popular in his country His fans remained faithful. He continued to have his concerts, and where he was silent - he just got the crowds to sing for him! Now he is about 18 and his voice, sight and hearing is slowly returning - thank The Lord for answered prayer
I hope to post these videos for you if I can find my way around I know you will be blessed
First Milena at 2 and half yrs first with her mother then sings on her own. notice the thousands in the balconies up to the ceiling and all their countrys' flags.
On her 3rd birthday Milena was introduced to the top Brazilian Children's talent show that caters for Christians where she insisted on singing only Gospel
First she insisted on praying for her president then went on to sing, narrate long bible stories, direct the audience, pray and minister - All this at the tender age of 3 years!. You can follow it through from here by clicking on youtube bottom right of the picture
Here is Dear Jotta you can follow him through from here on youtube as well c(this is my favourite of his)
I will add later ones of these
God Bless You All
