Spirit of Macon a christmas gift for the beloved of Sugar Grove ChurchJohn Mahoney
I never got to say goodbye, until….
It is now HIS life, not John Mahoney’s life anymore! I got two of the greatest Christmas gifts ever…
First, the freedom from serving Two masters! Ephesians 5:18
The second Christmas gift
I got to say; I will see you later Mom! I got to say; see you later in HEAVEN. I had to surrender to get my life back, Praise YOU LORD!
People signed prayers on a car to help themselves, not knowing that it was going to help a complete stranger down the road. Who knew it was for me, GOD knew!
Happy Birthday Jesus! Thank You GOD! Thank You Sugar Grove Church
