Joy Filled the Room

Operation Jesus Pictures received a phone call from Aaron in New Mexico this morning. He was calling to ask for pictures of Jesus to give out on a pilgrimage he will be taking in two weeks. He told me Jesus has helped him so much since he first asked OJP for the pictures. He said he used to be angry all the time. He said he would wake up angry and speak harsh words to others, but now he doesn't feel the same way towards people. He said he feels love for others now. He said he wakes up every morning talking to Jesus, and his mother commented on this and said she has heard him talking to Jesus in his sleep.

He found out about the pictures of Jesus from a friend who had one hanging in his car. He got our number off the back and called for pictures about a year ago. We sent pictures to him and his mother along with DVD's of the Passion of the Christ, and he has been giving them out to others ever since. Aaron said he believes that Jesus is with the picture and went on to say five months ago a friend's mother had a stroke and was unconscious in the hospital. Before she went unconscious she lost the ability to speak, and would try to communicate with her eyes. Aaron gave his friend a small picture of Jesus out of his wallet, and his friend went down to the hospital and laid it on his mother's forehead. There were many members of the family there in the room who were praying for her and staying with her. They were all afraid she would die. Half a day later, with the picture of Jesus still on her forehead, and the family still there, she suddenly woke up and said she was thirsty and asked for a diet Pepsi! Her family started laughing and joy filled the room and immediately they were thanking Jesus for bringing her back to them. Aaron said this happened five months ago and that now his friend's mother is well, and there is no evidence that she ever had a stroke!

When we tell you that the pictures are from the Father and that He is with every one of them, you can see by the evidence that this is so. And if it is so, then we encourage you to ask for pictures and let Him lead you to those in your neighborhoods, your communities, to give this loving hope to those in need of Jesus. Homeless shelters, poor neighborhoods, bars, funeral homes, leave them scattered like seeds from His hands. He will do the rest.
