You ever been misidentified?
April 26, 2006
Whitney became Laura!
Over one month the
Van Ryn family took
care of Whitney.
Whitney felt heart broken and confused.
As a freshman at
Taylor College she
was not spiritual.
Whitney felt
why did I live?
But God uses the small things on earth (David, Mary, etc…)
My power is made strong in weakness.
II Corinthians 12:9
Whitney was just a small shy girl on
the Today Show and
Good Morning America
People prayed and the doctor said she would be a vegetable
Prayers from all
over the U.S.
Acts 2:42
Test 1—could not pass
Test 2—2nd grade mentally
Test 3—8th grade level
Only problem was she was missing a piece of her ear
comb overs hide all!
Whitney’s accident caused her to
“see” spiritually.
What a valuable lesson.
She moved to Kenya as a missionary
for six years.
II Corinthians 3:2
“Set your mind on things above.”
In Kenya, learned God was real and knew her identity
I John 2:6
“Our identity is in Christ”
Give God control
of your life.
Wrote a book thinking
“If I write a book I won’t have to speak anymore.”
Now I trust God
in everything.
Easy to feel comfortable and not do anything uncomfortable.
“I know your deeds”
Wake up church!
Revelation 3
You haven’t committed to God? What are
you waiting for?
