Dollars to Donuts

Everyone loves a captivating story, but seldom do we recognize God calling us to live one! Especially while wading through the floodwaters. The Gospels reveal the real cost of following Jesus. It cost the disciples dearly to follow Him, cost in terms of their families, jobs and livelihoods, their fortunes, securities in the familiar, even their When Sudie Gal was reborn in the Holy Spirit in July of 1977, she never could have imagined then the painful cost of following Jesus the rest of her days. He would eventually ask nearly everything of her as she found herself caregiving for her defiant, elderly mother in her dementia. God may call you to one day leave all the people and things you love most. Perhaps He already has. If so, possibly He's guiding you to be the character that overcomes in the great story of your life! Just remember, you are never alone! He is with you always! Let Jesus be your Rock! He is available. Able. And amazingly, all that you need! Here now in this testimony of joyously surviving by His Divine Guidance, Sudie shows us through her torturous trials, the tremendous cost of her faith walk, even carried by Jesus, on His great shoulders through the floodwaters to high ground. Rescued, released, redeemed! "Godspeed!" ("Prosperous journey!") is this author's prayer for you! By our trials and scars we become most assuredly one of His Overcomers! Hallelujah! "Dollars to donuts" an old-world expression meaning a certainty, a pseudo-betting term. "I'll bet my dollars to your donuts (or buttons, cobwebs, whatever you have of no value) that I'm right!" was one of her mother's favorite sayings, as she was always "right," and everyone else could just go, well, they could just go.
