The Lord put him on my heart when he was having rough time with drugs. We started praying for him to be blessed and be delivered from drugs and come to know Jesus . I was so glad when he appeared to beat the drugs, what a sweet man. We still pray for him and I read he and his wife had a baby recently. I know God’s hand is on him.

(Drew Barrymore is on our prayer list too for ten years now)
