To all those who sit in any classes or conferences where Deborah teaches/ministers:

What I’ve learned from being connected with Deborah since April of 2009: I had joined Deborah’s Sunday morning Bible Study in April of 2009. She had given us at that time a devotional book, “Sparkling Gems” by Rick Renner. As it (just) happened, I brought the book home and the next day I began to read it –only I read the following days’ devotional 4-7-09 instead. I didn’t realize all of this at the time, but this was God’s divine appointment for me and the words on the pages were confirmation of my recent change to Deborah’s class.

God literally was speaking to me in this day’s devotional in the very first paragrah. I knew she was the woman God had positioned me to receive from– this strongly anointed woman of God. It was very clear that GOD was speaking to ME, loud & clear through the pages in the devotional of the importance of who speaks into our lives.

Just as this devotional says, Deborah imparted the tools, skills and understanding I needed to grow in the spirit. In this day’s devotional, God also spoke to me of the hard lessons we all need to learn when “He” or your “Mentor” (such as Deborah) in my case, speaks into our life that we must choose to grow. God had prepared and warned me of my need to grow through this in the devotional. He has literally placed Deborah as my mentor and authority in my life to help me in my walk as a Christian.

To all who are or have been in this Godly woman’s class: You are so very fortunate as you too have been positioned by God by divine appointment. Be the sponge He wants us all to be.

To you Deborah, thank you for being my mentor, my authority and my friend.

I love you,

Joyce F.
