Exactly 3 weeks ago, I underwent emergency brain surgery. The doctor didn't know if I would be the same person when I woke up, nor if I would remember people, or events that had taken place in my life. I am happy to report that the outcome has been remarkable! Praise God!! I have been released 7 weeks early, I am able to speak, drive, as well as have had no effects on memory, long or short term! I am so grateful to God, for I have been given a new lease on life, and will continue to give HIM the glory! Without a doubt, God's not done with me yet!!

Story:
In October 2011, my girlfriend of 3 years died of the cancer she'd been fighting for two years. To put it simply, I was devastated. I don't think I even realized just how much I loved her until I could no longer talk to her and be with her.
I have listened to country music all my life, but in my teen years, I became a fan of contemporary Christian music, however, for most of my life here in SC where I live, I could not pick up any station that played my newfound favorite music. Just a couple months after Raine's passing, I was tired of country music and just decided to go through the radio stations to see what else I could find. I stumbled across K Love. I had no idea that there was a station near me, but the radio in my truck has almost never left the station since I found it. I've found encouragement during low moments of my life; I've loved getting in my truck and hearing some of my favorite Christian music artists like Matthew West, TobyMac, and the Newsboys. Thank you K Love for your ministry. You have truly been a blessing in my life.

As Mother's Day approaches, I thank God for my mother, Kay Bowman, and her faith and inspiration: Even though she lost my dad (a pastor) 5 years ago, and then her beloved sister, and despite being diagnosed with the final stage of cancer herself and living in excruciating pain every day, she still has a burning desire to share about God with others and has written a devotional book called "Tears Within My Heart: A Modern-Day Psalms Collection" (Prince of Peace Press, 2013) in the hopes that others will be drawn closer to God. She's been such a blessing to so many, especially to us, her children - and we are so grateful to God for the gift of our mother's love and faith. Thank you, Mom, for sharing your faith with us and others and so valiantly living for God each day, despite the hardships you're going through now!

Me and my husband are young and approaching our one year anniversary this month. But it feels like there isn't going to a celebration for it. We do nothing but argue constantly and getting a seperation or divorce has been talked about a lot lately. I've just about given up hope. After another huge fight tonight I got on K-Loves website to check out their new songs, hoping something will speak to me from the Lord. The first song on the list was Restore by Christ August. And I was in tears by reading the lyrics
"He said with this ring I promise, and with I do she said forever but right now if they're being honest they don't know if they'll stay together"
It's amazing how God speaks to you if you only look for what He's trying to say. I know our marriage will be far from easy. We have a lot of problems that need fixed. But I know if i rely on the Lord for guidance, He will lead me through these hard times. As the song says
"So if you're feeling like it’s falling apart and it can't go on anymore. God is a God who knows how to heal so just give it up to the Lord and He will restore."
Thank you so much K-Love, for allowing God to speak through you.

2 yrs ago in the Spring of 2011 I was the winner of a mission trip to New York City for myself and my best friend through K-love and Global Expeditions. Going on that trip drastically altered the course of my life and I fell deeply in love with the Lord. After having an encounter with God on campus during training for my trip I felt called to come and be a part of the christian internship with Teen Mania ministries the Honor Academy. I am now in my second year here, working for the Director of Global expeditions as Office manager, Financial specialist and assistant to the director. I have spent the last 2 years of my life getting to see the other side of a ministry that changed my life and pour my time into making an amazing encounter with the Lord possible for other teens through Global Expeditions & Acquire the Fire youth conferences. This summer my team and I will be responsible for putting together a summer of missions to remember for thousands more teens who could be in the same place I was 2 years ago and I am humbled and honored to be a part and so excited to see people fall in love with the Lord from both sides as they share or have the gospel shared with them. I just wanted to tell K-love Thank you from the bottom or my heart for opening the door to a deep relationship with Christ.
Kelsi.

I thank myself the day I accidentally switch the radio to your station. Before I really liked RnB, Pop, etc. But to my surprise I was already listening to the station for a year already. I'm inspired by the messages and the songs you played.I'm an aide for an autistic kid. This autistic kid, doesn't know a lot of songs. Everyday hen I drive him to his school, Im always tuning on to KLOVE. One day, when 10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord) was playing, the kid suddenly sang: Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name
. This just made me so happy that I want to cry because aside from his situation, he is not even a Christian. Im happy that through your station it is also possible that I can spread the word of God. Today, whenever I accidentally tune in on different station. He would say that I want KLOVE and never forget to say "POSITIVE, ENCOURAGING KLOVE"

Driving home yesterday I heard someone talk about Mother's Day. Being an adopted child I have 2 mothers. Both are in heaven. God is gracious and our families got to meet. I'd like to encourage adoptive mother's for this mother's day because adoption is a celebration of selflesness and what better way to celebrate that than Mother's day. Adoptive mom's deserve a special thanks because motherhood is only doable through God. To love another's child for whatever reason is love that comes straight from God. A mother's love is priceless. All too often we don't realize just how precious until you lose you mom. God must count me precious to give me two mother's. I want to pass that legacy of love on to my children and grandchildren. Mother's and especially adoptive mothers. Happy Mother's Day.

Story:
My husband and I were married in 2005 after being together for 7 years. In 2007 we found out that we were pregnant. With so much excitement, we told everyone we knew. At 8 weeks along I started spotting and the Dr confirmed that I was indeed having a miscarraige but what made it harder was that it was twins. After going through that, we grew closer together and in 2008, we were pregnant again and then again at 8 weeks, we miscarried, this time it was ectopic (in the tubes). I was so afraid that I was gonna have surgery but thank the Lord that wasn't the case. After that I became bitter at myself and God and I felt less of a woman. In 2009 the same exact thing happened again and by then I was really bitter and angry. One night at revival in 2010, I redidicated my life to Jesus and that very night my Aunt Lisa told me that God would give me my baby now. That very same year in June, we were pregnant and everything went perfect, no morning sickness, swelling, nothing but pure bliss and happiness. On March 20,2011, we were blessed with Miss Bryleigh Grace Hunt at 7lbs 13oz and she has been a blessing ever since. She is now 2 and she praises and sings in church and I believe in my heart that God has a calling for her later in life. Thank you Jesus!!!!

Last night, I heard "More", by Matthew West. I was reminded of my miscarriage four years ago. I was so hurt and confused, I cried for days. I prayed and questioned why God had taken away something that I had prayed and longed for. I had to keep telling myself that we have to trust that He knows what we need before we even ask. Finally, as I was coming home from work late one night, I was listening to KLOVE. I had been listening for a while, but I just poured out my heart and weeped loudly. I told God I had prayed, I had trusted, I was hurting, I needed Him to help me understand. "More" was already playing, I hadn't really tuned in yet, I liked the song, but it wasn't my favorite. Just as I finished this prayer, the lyrics played, " I see you, I made you, & I love you more than you can imagine. More than you can fathom, I love you more than the sun... and it shines FOR ME." Right then, I knew God had spoken to me. I had the peace which passeth all understanding come over me. I knew it would be all right. A month later, I was pregnant w/ my 3 yr old son. God is awesome, I know KLOVE is working miracles everyday for God!! Thank you!
