RON W. - HURRICANE EXPRESS

I load and unload my truck in the heart of Los Angeles. A girl came up and asked me to pray for her and the Holy Spirit came upon us real strong. She rededicated her life to Jesus Christ and decided to get into a drug rehab, to stop crack cocaine and prostitution. I saw her one month later and she is getting her life back all by the power of God. I went to worship services last Sunday at the Los Angeles Salvation Army and then to the park where we got the microphone out and started sharing testimonies of changed lives, singing songs and praises to our Lord, having a good time sharing Jesus with everyone. I told the people out on the streets that your family may have rejected you, but if you get on your knees and repent and ask Jesus into your life He will accept you right now in a heartbeat because He knows the sincerity of your heart. We let the people in a hurting situation know there are a bunch of Christians out here that love you very much with the love of Jesus. We want to let you know Jesus Christ loves you completely. No case is too impossible for Jesus. I was a wetbrain and Jesus Christ healed me. I came from the street and was homeless 21 years ago, on skid row. I couldn't carry on a conversation. I couldn't tie my shoes. But one day God laid His hand upon me and God set me free! Then I found Jesus! Glory to God!

FOOTBALL IS MY CB HANDLE! I'M FRANK FROM CLEVELAND, OHIO

I asked God to set me free from Crack Cocaine. He did it! Two months ago I had a heart attack, and I had a triple by-pass. God healed me and I am driving truck again, and I can still walk this earth and be with my family. Tonight I was singing and praising the Lord here at Chapel and God just healed my hand tonight. It's feeling better! Praise God! God has used Chaplain Kris in counseling me from the Word of God to be set free of the cocaine addiction. Everything of my life had to change and in Christ Jesus all things are become new. Tonight I threw my cigarettes away forever! Thank you Jesus for the power and the love.

VISITING DRIVER

I had an incident New Year's Eve when I got shorted 22 cases of shrimp. My company knows my character and knows I didn't steal it. Well I found out yesterday, I'm gonna have to come up with $12,000 out of my pocket. Bottom line is I signed that piece of paper and I am responsible. I thought about it and overwhelming peace came upon me. Then God told me to pay it because I am making a down payment on a bushel basket of character. This is not a curse but a blessing. God is good! In God's Kingdom, $12,000 is nothing.

FLORENCE P. - BORN IN SCOTLAND - RIDES WITH HER HUSBAND

I came to the United States as a Nanny. I went out into the world and walked away from Jesus. But God in His merciful way, drew me back. I was like the prodigal son who wallowed in the mud with the pigs. I called out to God and then I heard His voice. He made the way and drew me back. He gave me ears to hear. The first thing I had to learn was to be a good wife and not be selfish. God taught me well and I am still learning. My son was in the occult and drugs and alcohol, but he is delivered and come out of all that and is now praising God. We believe that he is in God's perfect plan for his life, because he has completely changed. So has his wife, daughter, and son. My son saw the Glory of God in my life and he knows who I worship. He knows God alone has the power. It is God alone through Jesus Christ that saves. There is no other way.

BOB, A DRIVER FOR ZUMSTEIN

I know if it wasn't for Jesus I wouldn't be here. I had a truck come across the medium, but God sent angels and I am sure of it. No vehicle came in contact with any other vehicle as everything stopped within 5 feet of impacting. There was no way this could have been done with humans in control. It was just God! Praise the Lord!

ROBERT S. - A VISITING DRIVER

The Lord blesses me everyday of my life with a beautiful wife and children. Because of the Lord, I have that truck out there. It belongs to him. Two years ago, my oldest boy was diagnosed with AIDS. Six months ago they did tests and they can't find any sign of AIDS. God gave doctors the medication to use and my son is cured! Glory to God!

WAYNE J. - FROM AMARILLO, TEXAS

God is good! My desire is to just know Him more every day and to know the truth of the word of God protecting myself from false teachings. That is my goal . . . to know the truth, to seek His truth with everything in me. I praise God for all the Chapels and the Chaplains out here. All truck driving brothers and sisters in Christ out here really encourage me. Two weeks ago, God gave me another truck as I am owner/operator again. That is real special that He done that for me. He is blessing!

LAWRENCE W. - A DRIVER FOR PAST 5 YEARS

Whatever you sow is what you reap. Anybody I find stopped along side of the road, a driver, a policeman, or someone with a flat tire, I pray for them. I've been doing that now for a year and a half. I am lifting these people up for their safety. All you can get back is a harvest of safety. I was down in Florida sitting in my truck doing my log, when I heard KABOOM. I got out of my truck and looked. Here I had a front tire blowout, steel tire, while I was sitting. Now that is a blessing! That is the harvest! Not only that, when I went in, I had to look hard because I could not find the flat. It was still up. I had to open up the hood, go in and I found a split the size of my hand. There was a little skin back up in there that kept the air from coming out. The second blessing was that I left the truck stop where the tires were high, and I drove 3 miles down the road to Goodyear shop where tires were better priced. The guy pulled the tire off and he couldn't believe it. I am a believer whatsoever you sow is what you reap.

PIPELINE TO JESUS - A WOMEN'S TESTIMONY

Chaplain Kris started prophesying over me and she said, "I am drawing you up, up, up, up, up saith the Lord. To tell you whether I was off the ground or not I can't say. But I'll tell you, I know I went up and nobody is going to change that. I went up! I believe I know what the rapture is going to feel like. And I am telling you people when God calls His Bride we are going up and out. Hallelujah!

DRIVER VISITING CHAPEL

The return of Jesus is growing so close. Just about everyone is talking about the Rapture. Everything is pointing to the time of the mark of the beast. (Read 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18). If we could only realize just how close it is, we would probably all be amazed, even the blood-washed and those ready to go!

CHAPLAIN KRIS

We must want to be everything Jesus wants us to be to go with Jesus. Then let it alone. We then must care enough and pray for others all around us that they will go with Jesus in the Rapture also. Many, many, many on the highways and byways and all around us don't know Jesus. But we do! It is up to us to look around us and pray in Jesus' Name for all to be made ready. Jesus Christ is coming in the Air. He cometh quickly.

TESTIMONY OF JOHN C. -- SAFEWAY MOVING SYSTEMS

Drinking drove me to my knees and on my knees is where I found God. Through an audible voice I heard the Lord speak and I then I went and found my Bible. I said, "Lord let me see what you want." As I read His Word, it all made sense and became real to me. There was a message for me. When I got done reading I prayed the sinners prayer. The grace of God and the Blood of Jesus Christ cleansed my soul. I was a different person. I began tithing. Church had a whole new meaning. I felt the love of God. I am sober 5 years now. Life is easier. Prayer really works. I've learned when problems are too big, traffic is too heavy, when shippers/customers don't lay down the red carpet for you, just back up a couple of steps and give it to the Lord. Just remember, prayer really works.

SINNER'S PRAYER:

HEAVENLY FATHER, IN JESUS' NAME, I COME TO YOU ASKING FORGIVENESS FOR MY SINS. I BELIEVE IN MY HEART AND SPEAK WITH MY MOUTH THAT JESUS IS LORD. I BELIEVE JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR MY SINS AND ROSE FROM THE DEAD. COME INTO MY HEART, JESUS. I SURRENDER MY LIFE TO YOU. I RECEIVE YOUR FORGIVENESS. THANK YOU, JESUS, FOR NOT CONDEMNING ME BUT SAVING ME. I AM BORN AGAIN.

GARY E. - DRIVER FROM BELLEFONTE,PA

There is a growing in the grace and knowledge of the Lord. The Holy Spirit teaches us scripture. It is God's doing when He brings the Word to life to us, not our memorization. If we are disciples of Jesus Christ, we go into the world to be a witness. The Holy Spirit speaks and we are in agreement with His Word. God allows us to go on with him, and as we are obedient, God speaks peace into our lives. If there is something in my life that I need to get rid of, I do it as God reveals it to me. He removes sin as far as the East is from the West. We are on a direction and a path in Him. He shows us how to be a witness. God uses people not by ability, but by faith.

TERESA F. - A DRIVER FROM DECATER, INDIANA

The Lord does many, many things in my life. Today a deer ran across, but I was able to see it and got stopped in time. I drive motor homes hauling my car on back. My husband drives trucks for the same company that I do. Sometimes I get to ride with him and it is always a blessing. I pray going down the road, driving mostly in the East but I've been in all 48 states. One night I was near here (Exit 32) and got stopped because my lights were out and that's how I found the chapel here. This place is my second home. Chaplain Kris baptized me and my husband together in the Susquehanna River which happened to be our 25th year we were married. I wanted to be baptized together, making us one in the Lord. Amen!

A MALE DRIVER VISITING CHAPEL SERVICES

I had terrible spinal problems and was taken in for surgery. I was spiritually lost at the time not realizing how close to hell's reality I really was. I was in surgical intensive care for 24 hours after being on the operating table 7 hours, then a body cast for 9 months. Now I realize what God did for me! He healed me and I am healed over 18 years ago. And I am able to work! Praise God for He keeps His people and He is our Healer!

VIRGEL - DRIVER FROM WISCONSIN

Jesus is my Savior. He died on the cross for me and He rose again. He looks down and watches me and guides me from day to day. Even though I mess up, I repent and He forgives me.

WE MUST CONSTANTLY STAY IN RIGHT RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.

HUSBAND (JERRY) & WIFE - OWNER/OPERATOR FOR MINNESOTA

We put on the whole armor of God written about in Ephesians 6 each morning. We also have our morning devotions before we get out on the road. It is important to stay very close to the Lord.

DENNIS L'P - DRIVER FOR GREAT LAKES

We are to see ourselves as missionaries. If we keep the Gospel of Jesus Christ hid, and not tell others, no one will know the good news. But when we let our light shine, people will want what we have. It is not always the words we say, but we tell others in the way we live our life. People out there are watching us Christians, to see when we make it, so they have something to hope for. This world doesn't offer any hope. When we come through it, in Jesus Christ, that is what the world wants to see. Some man came up to me at a Truckstop. Said he had been looking for me for 6 months. He started crying . . . "My life is so messed up and I need Jesus Christ and I don't know how to do anything about it." In the parking lot there, he gave his life to Jesus Christ. Now his whole life is changed. The Bible has become real to him and so has Jesus Christ become a reality in his life now. His whole family life has changed . . . and all to the Glory of God!

SONNY-PREACHED HERE AT THE CHAPEL-NOVEMBER 1997

I take the load the Lord gives me and I make the best of it. I want to be where God wants me to be so I can witness and tell someone about the Lord and unload with a smile on my face . . . and do everything with a smile for the Lord. When you put the seed of the Word of God into your heart that's what comes out. I have a burden to get on the CB and glorify and speak about Jesus Christ. I encourage all of you to do the same. I love to see the Spirit of God come upon the trucking industry. Touch drivers' spirits with your spirit in Christ Jesus. God wants us to be a blessing to people. That is why we are a peculiar people.

A DRIVER FOR STEPHENS TRANSPORT

My wife has rode with me on the truck since February. We had two experiences -- the first episode was when I backed out the trailer carrying HAZMAT material out through a gate onto a railroad track when I heard a train whistle blowing frantically. So I put the truck in gear and shot forward. Just about the time I got clear, a train goes by missing the rear of my trailer by about 4 or 5 feet. The other incident was when someone came knocking on our truck window to get out. The truck next to us caught on fire . . . it was a ball of fire. The tires were exploding. Me and about 50 other trucker drivers were trying to get out of there all at the same time. Praise the Lord! God sure answered our prayers for protection. The next morning we saw that our tanker was unmarked and untouched. THANK YOU JESUS.

JACQUELINE S. - A DRIVERS'S WIFE

Someone asked me if I was saved? I said, "what are you talking about?" Are you talking about going to church? They said, "No, have you asked Jesus to be Lord of your Life?" I thought just going to Church was enough. Some time after that, at a friend's house, the Holy Spirit began to move upon me and tears flowed down my cheeks. When I began to understand more, I did ask Jesus to come into my heart and be Lord of my life. For the first 2 years I consumed the Word of God. I had a true desire from God to read and study the Bible letting the Holy Spirit teach me. I also had to go to Psalms to learn to praise Him.

FOREVER IN HIS HANDS NEWSLETTER by BILL & NORA CARL

I urge you to not only ask Jesus to be your Savior, but to allow Him to be Lord of your life; to love your neighbor as yourself and attempt to give glory to His name with all that you say or do, and with all of His blessings. DOREEN'S EXPERIENCE ON I-80 One day I was passing two trucks on I-80 when I began to have severe respiratory symptoms and began losing consciousness. I really thought my life was coming to an end. I remembered a friend who told me in every circumstance of life to praise the Lord. In my heart I began to praise God. Immediately I regained total consciousness and my breathing returned to normal. The peace of God that passes all understanding came upon me! I continued traveling and had total peace throughout the rest of that incredible day I'll never forget.

VISITING DRIVER AT LI'L GRACE CHAPEL

I am thankful to God to be a Christian, thankful to be a trucking Christian. God is with me every part of my day. He's with me while I'm awake and He keeps me free from harm and free from disease. It is a comfort to come to Spirit of the Road-LI'L Grace Chapel and associate with other Christians here. It is home away from home.

MATTHEW P. - DRIVER FOR SUNRISE

God has been good to me and He is keeping my family together. I have two lovely sons at home in South Carolina. I get home on the weekends.

VINCENT S. - DRIVER FROM CAMBRIDGE, MD.

God has done a lot of things for me, but recently He has removed the taste for alcohol. I haven't had a drink in a 1 1/2 months. Glory!! And He has removed the desire for tobacco. Glory! It was all getting out of control. If I had time out on the road it was getting the best of me. So I just kept asking the Lord if He would take it all from me. He did!

WILL - INDEPENDENT DRIVER

Everyday of my life God does something for me, really He does everything for me. He keeps me safe. My wife and I have a good relationship together. We operate a business together. A few weeks ago I was out in Iowa and Nebraska and we had 80 m.p.h. winds, ice and snow. I only had 22,000 in the wagon. Trucks were blowing over in front of me, but I never felt the wind. I never slid or nothing. I know it was God. I just prayed. The trucks behind me and the trucks ahead of me were all talking about the strong wind, but I never had a gust of wind hit my truck. It was amazing. Amen!

VISITING DRIVER

Praise God! We may be the only Jesus some people may ever see. We have so many opportunities to tell people about Jesus. We are missionaries and we are to take the Gospel across these highways and byways. This is serious.
