Leave the REST to God!

I came to the NEWSTART Seminar with allergies (wheat, gluten, Soya, Oats) the doctors called Celiac Disease. Two years ago I was diagnosed with severe Sleep Apnea and have been using a C.P.A.P. machine prescribed by my doctor. 42 times in an hour I would stop breathing for 2 minutes at a time. High blood pressure, Migrain Headaches, Chest Pain and memory loss resulted. I still could not sleep and my nose was slowly being deformed by the nosepiece.

After listening to Dr. Sang Lee's lecture on allergies and God's promise to heal all our diseases, I decided to let God take my allergies and let Him breath for me too! I ate without fear of allergins then that night left my C.P.A.P. machine in the corner, turned off!

With the new dawn, I had slept the whole night peacefully. I thank God that now He is in charge of my health and not my medical doctor. God is my physician! I will continue with NEWSTART. What's next? God will surely cure my arthritis. I already feel less pain in my feet, knees and hips! Thank God and Dr. Sang Lee who introduced me to NEWSTART (Nutrition, Exercise, Water, Sunshine, Temperance, fresh Air, Rest, Trust in God).

MY MEMORIES OF Dr. Sang Lee’s Seminar Week at Camp Frenda

I cannot imagine how the week could have been any more perfect! It was like God was saying to us: "my children, you have come here to honor & glorify Me with your mind, body and spirit and receive all these blessings from Me. I will give you the best of these things you seek, just to let you know you are on the right path"!

All of our senses – the sights, sounds, smells, tastes and touch He activated to the fullest!! We felt the healing warmth of the sun - just the perfect temperature to warm us in body and spirit. I loved the smell of the invigorating and healing pine and cedar in the air. We experienced the calming sights and sounds of rippling waters and the birds singing out and what a treat to hear (Dr. Lees’ wife) Ester’s beautiful clear voice ringing out across the bay early one morning coming from somewhere in the forest.

We had the enjoyment of swimming, sauna and gliding across the water in canoes. We were reminded to drink water often and felt the refreshing effects in our body and spirit. We took invigorating walks in the beauty of nature keeping our precious little blood capillaries alive and well through exercise. We learned how to do stretching and how important it is for us.

Each day we looked forward to our meals, with mouth watering tastes and smells of delicious hot meals as well as fresh foods spread out before us -welcoming us to every meal. Then there was the happy fellowship as we talked together like one big harmonious family. The restful nights in this wonderful and peaceful place also gave us much needed time away from the hustle and bustle of a world going crazy.

The brilliant fall colours of a ‘peak’ season seemed to be exploding everywhere we looked. I do not ever remember seeing the colours of the trees more vivid and beautiful. Dr. Lee made it his first priority to help us appreciate all this as he glorified God in every part of his amazing scientific presentations he taught us.

What a marvelous time it was each morning to witness an amazing sunrise greeting each day with the splendor of God’s marvelous creative power awakening us to His new day. Not until I arrived home did I realize, and miss, what an awesome view Camp Frenda has of a most breathtaking sunrise as it beams its’ dazzling path across the lake right to us.

I looked forward to going to this seminar for the pure 'JOY' that I knew I would find there and I was not disappointed! The Joyfulness was contagious, in the songs, and laughter and the love among all those who were there. The best part of it was that we were giving the Glory to God for the wonderful work he does in us and for us. It renewed my spirit and made me realize that we are not alone -Gods wonderful Love shown to us in His power and presence is always with us. His life giving Love-power (“spark”) is working in us and for us every micro second of every day.

A Rare Privilege

The Dawn of a New Life - a NEWSTART!

This morning as I stepped out into a brisk new day, the stars were already yielding to a hint of rose that advances before the sun. Lake Rosseau is still as if it too is awaiting the dawn.

Why did we come to this Canadian place? For some of us it was to find healing for broken spirits. For others it was to discover a healing for broken bodies. Nancy, my sweet smiling Nancy, and I came for both.

Did we know what to expect? No! Only that my dear friend, Marta, insisted that we "must come." At first I said, "We simply cannot afford the trip, and after all, if we came to Camp Frenda, who is going to care for our precious cats?"

Marta responded in her usual meek and mild manner, "Pray, Charles, pray and God will provide a way!" Well, I prayed, not; I must admit with much enthusiasm and God heard even that perfunctory, half hearted prayer. A friend came forward and paid for the seminar. Then our airfare was paid. Another friend volunteered to look after the cats. So, now what could I do? If there is anything I hate to do it is to admit that she was right. Because in her quiet, unassuming manner she would never allow me to forget it, but, suck it up chuck. Marta was right! (thanks, Marta)

When we arrived, Nancy was totally dependent upon her walker. There were times that she needed a wheelchair. Praise be to our wonderful, loving, miracle working, gracious, powerful God, Sunday morning she walked unaided with uplifted hands, into the dining room and as she did so she exclaimed, "Praise God, I'm healed!" Then Joseph, (oh how we need more Josephs in the world) walked up to Nancy, bowed elequently, and said, "May I have this dance?" They danced to the tune of the diners cheering and laughing, with a few tears of joy thrown in as spice.

Yes, oh God, my cup runneth over!! Thank you, Papa God for bringing us to Camp Frenda to hear Dr. Sang Lee speak about our amazing Father who brings deliverance from illness, when the doctors had given up on us. Thank you, oh Merciful Friend for bringing us to Dr. Sang Lee and his NEWSTART Seminar. Thank you, Oh God! And they all said, "Amen!"
