Jesus said, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?" JOHN 11:40 Ask anyone who believes in God if they have ever witnessed His presence and they'll probably have a story to share. HE KNEW I WOULD TELL is a collection of short stories of "God moments" as they have occurred in ordinary people's lives. God moments happen all the time. Most people don't notice, or tend to ignore them or chalk them up to coincidences. But when His presence comes on strong, He is impossible to ignore! HE KNEW I WOULD TELL. Maybe, just maybe, these things happened to these particular people because He knew they would tell! Jesus said, "Return home and tell how much God has done for you." LUKE 8:39 More info at: www.HeKnewIWouldTell.com
