Grace and peace to all this morning. My name is Bryan Williams and welcome to "The Messenger". Being that this is my first blog I guess a good place to start is at the the beginning, or some where near there. So how about 1993? Why 1993? Because this is the year my life made a drastic turn.
I was living in Saginaw, MI with my wife(now married over 26 years) and two of my three children. It was in May of 1993 that I was diagnosed with this rare disease called sarcoidosis. There was little known about sarcoid even thought it had been around for about a hundred years. It was discovered during a pre-op chest x-ray showing lesions on my lungs and confirmed with a biopsy. First thing the doctor told me was not to worry about it so I didn't (little did he know I wasn't the worrying type anyway). They began my treatment with steroids and I was told that I probably would live a long life with little or no problems. After a year of steroids which by the way, to that point my steroid treatment was far worst than the disease. For those that do not know steroids it is a mean and nasty drug! Well, for the next four years the disease seem to be in remission. It was in May (again in May what was up with that) my life was forever changed!
Its now 2007 I've been living in Cleveland, OH since 2001 and sarcoid have invaded nearly every organ in my body. Here is a little of the break down. Its in my lungs, stomach(sarcoidulcers), spleen, liver(cirrhosis), joints, skin, eyes, sinuses, central nervous system(neurosarcoid), and I have developed diabetes and high blood pressure. I am in constant pain and this is all due to sarcoidosis or the treatment of it and this is the short list of problems. Now, I tell you this not to receive sympathy but to help you understand who I am and this journey I am on.
On this journey I have discovered that pain is the fuel for passion and purpose. It was through all this God revealed my purpose in life which is to help people to become whole. It is because of this purpose, because of God, because of my family and friends that I have been able to endure. In II Corinthians 12:9 God said to Paul "my grace is sufficient for thee."
People, I am blessed to be able to reach out to others! I have received email from people around the world, I have had the opportunity to pray and speak to support groups made up of people from all walks of life. Now, I believe this is serendipity of God that has led me to this amazing opportunity... My Power Mall(MPM) or also known as World Changer Mall(WCM). I believe this opportunity can change lives and just maybe even change the world. All it will take is you and the "butterfly effect."
I want to hear from you so post your thoughts, or visit my website or you can call me. Thank you for reading my blog and lets keep one another in prayer and in great thoughts. I will see you next time on the upside.
With blessings,
Bryan

Welcome. When I read your blog, I wanted to cry. First, a fellow "believer in Christ"..next , a fellow Michiganian (from Bay City ,myself). Third, all that you have been through.
You are right....His grace is sufficient...by His grace we are healed. God bless you, brother and your family.
Look forward to keeping up with your blog. Thank you for being 'used' of Him
