The Lord has given her many opportunities to test His Word, and it has proven true every time. She is excited and humbled to share with you some things God has shown her through her relationship with Him. Nan has been married to her high school sweetheart, Jerry, for over 20 years. Together with their two sons, God planted them in La Vernia, Texas

    Thank you for posting this. It opened my eyes. I recently got very sick and developed Neuropathy and am now bound to a wheel chair. After reading this it made me realize I’m listening to the “Enemy” too much and need to listen to God more. Thank you so much. God Bless!
