Section 1
A special moment unfolded when Rosalyn called into the show. Providentially, she was announced as the honey contest winner at the very moment she phoned in, which became a tangible reminder of God’s timing. She not only won the trivia contest but also shared encouragement despite battling serious health struggles. Rosalyn explained her upcoming chemotherapy schedule, the challenges of relocating to Houston for treatment, and the weight of a difficult diagnosis. Yet even in the hard news, she described God’s provision—such as a church family offering her a place to stay—and the kindness of others who stepped in with support. This mixture of trials and blessings revealed God’s sustaining presence in her journey.

In response, the conversation turned toward the importance of prayer, encouragement, and recording God’s “gracelets”—those small but significant ways He shows up daily. You encouraged Rosalyn to create a written record of God’s faithfulness, a personal testimony she could return to whenever the enemy whispered doubt. The call ended with a heartfelt prayer over Rosalyn and her husband Robert, asking for protection, faith refined by trials, peace beyond understanding, and strength to testify of God’s goodness. Rosalyn, in turn, shared how she was witnessing to others even from hospital waiting rooms, handing out cards, brochures, and even small reminders pointing people to Jesus.
Section 3
Following the call, you transitioned into a teaching from Luke 1, contrasting the responses of Zachariah and Mary to the angel Gabriel’s announcements. Zachariah, though a priest, doubted and was silenced for his unbelief. Mary, though young and inexperienced, believed with childlike faith and humbly accepted God’s word. The lesson warned against letting years of hardship or spiritual weariness harden us into doubt, urging listeners instead to embrace Mary’s posture of wonder and trust. The takeaway was clear: be people who believe God’s promises, not those who require constant proof, and cultivate a childlike faith that expects God to move in powerful ways.
