I was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa at 18 yrs. but miss understood my diagnoses. My doctor told me to wear sunglasses to protect my eyes or I would ruin my eyes. Well, I started having more vision problems but my optomotrist never caught on to my visual problem. I was tested again in 2005 and an optomotrist told me that I had Retinitis Pigmentosa an eye illness that is passed on through our genes and there was no cure but to be healed by God. I had lost my peripheral vision and I had less than 8 degrees left of my central vision. I was diagnosed legally blind. My vision was like looking through a straw. I had no vision at night and could not determine many colors. Contrast was a problem also as well as depth perception. I got around with the aid of a cane and shades to help with glare. Well, on May 4, 2008, I was healed by the grace of God and I can see now. I have my vision back and have not stopped crying and praising the Lord. I have always loved the song "Amazing Grace" especially the one by Chris Tomlin. We all need to remember to always keep the faith in our Lord he is the only one that will see us through everything! God Bless You All!

Story:
I died 3 times on the table while giving birth to my daughter on New Years Eve 1996, and after a 20 year absence from God being active in my life, I decided to go back to church. It was spurred on with the death of my best friend and confident who was also my dad, along with my husband's infidelity. I divorced and it took me forever to learn how to deal with Dad's passing. But my church family has been there with me thru Dad's situation, my divorce, my layoff which caused me to not having an income and I had to sell my home. I moved in with my mom due to her medical condition and we will be losing her soon. I still keep a positive outlook, we say our prayers and I know when my time comes around again, I know that I will be with God, Dad, my family and the friends who have gone before me. I am not afraid, because God walks beside me every step of the way. I do know he has left his footsteps in the sand because he has carried me many times. For those who are afraid of life and death, don't be - God will carry you every step of the way.

I wanted to thank everyone there for all your hard work in this ministry, it really ministers to me. I started listening to KLOVE with my husband in 07'. I never knew it existed until I met him.
Now we are seperated and I am left to care for our 4 month old daughter whom he has never seen nor cares to, alone. I havent talked or seen him since Christmas. I am now a single mom going through a divorce. That's why I love this station.
I don't have much time during the day to worship like I would like to., but I can listen to this in the car, and now I just learned about online access! I can listen to Christian music when I check my mail, and it has connected me to all my favorite singers and I put their songs on my myspace so I can listen to it whenever, and this helps keep my mind on Christ, where I find my strength and love.
Thank you, Thank you. I love you guys!

Kimmi from SUNY Geneseo
Story:
As I was transitioning into SUNY Geneseo last semester, I was going through one of the toughest times in my life. Everything from a five-year breakup to unaccustomed academics to a struggle for a proper social life had me spinning in circles and by the end of the Fall 2007 semester, I was a train wreck. I literally had hit rock bottom and I was to the point physically and emotionally where I felt completely and utterly hopeless and... ultimately, alone -regardless of how "popular" I was or how many friends I had. However, with the help of supportive friends and a loving God and Church, I was able to completely turn things around since then.
Our Heavenly Father humbled me and it gave me some new, brighter perspectives about life and learning how to truly LIVE it. He helped me to be more honest with myself and just recently through KLove, I've realized that I have been forgiven for every bad decision I made last semester...
I'm beginning to say hello to a brand new life now. Its pretty lonely sometimes when you are living a completely different lifestyle than the majority. But I’ve learned that a big lesson that has to do with this is… “I would rather be hated for who I truly am, than loved for who I’m not.” After all, if we aren’t being who we truly are, then who are we?
Strong strong. Its so worth it.
Love,
K.

Story:
I had been living a life not worthy of the calling of Christ. I was saved young but my walk with God has been rocky. I have often been seduced by the world and the evil one away from my Creator. Although I have been unfaithful to God and I have failed Him many times, He has never been unfaithful to me and He will never fail me nor forsake me. It was the Lord's supernatural power that drew me back to him because 6 months ago I was smoking pot and cigarettes and doing evil things of all sorts and then something that I never would of imagined happened. My son was diagnosed with autism. I was devestated and lost in a world I knew nothing about but I loved my baby and I knew I had to help him recover from this complex disorder. In my dazed and bewildered state, the Lord reintroduced some faithful friends into my life and I was supernaturally drawn to their Bible study. In my state I had no intention of quitting pot or cigarettes or of changing my life. But the Lord knew it was time for me to surrender and he used my boy and my love for him to bring me to a place of surrender. I would be absolutely nuts without the hope of my salvation in Christ and the comfort and healing power of the Holy Spirit. Praise God! I am thankful because He loves me!

No More Faith
I have just recently came to Christ. Before that I was here there and everywhere. It has been a long road up to this point. I have been all over the board good, bad, and indifferent. New to this relationship with God I had my faith tested no questioned. How can someone go to church and receive Christ and change over night. Well I have thought about that and come to know that I don't have faith. I believe, I don't have faith that God can change me and make me new. I know he can. With him all is possible. I know that it will take work on my part to build and grow. I don't think that life will change with out me changing. It will take worship, prayer, and many other steps. He will make me new not perfect but new. There is one thing I know for sure. I am a sinner. I am flawed. I was created by and for only one purpose GOD.
A Son In and Of Christ,
Jason Wendell Musgrove Sr.

Back in September 2005 I met a very wonderful young woman. I fell in love with her right then and there on our first date. We continued to date and with me being in the Army I was also getting ready to deploy. We decided we wanted to spend our lives together and get married during my R&R leave. We were married and it was the best day of my life. It was a short leave and I had to return back to Iraq. 3 months back into that deployment and my marriage my wife met another man. Instead of making the right choices she made all the wrong ones. I never knew of the other man until much too late, but had my suspicions. After a few more months things came to a boil while I was deployed and she decided she wanted to end our marriage. I came home to nothing and knew there was more to her story she wasn't telling me. These past few months I've kept busy but my emotional health and faith were badly beaten. She has tried to rebuild with me but too soon with what she herself has gone through. Our attempt failed. It breaks my heart as I truely love her and will always. We are now finalising our divorce. Her ability to seek God and forgiveness though has renewed my own faith and brought me closer to God again. KLOVE inspired this. Thank you God, KLOVE, & Mariann.

Story:
Friday, my grandchildren, Laural 8, Caleb 4 and Sam 1.
came to spend the night, so so their parents could work on a benefit for a little boy, a friend of their's, with cancer, named Jacob.
Poppy Speed took the older 2 mushrooming. While they were gone, I was changing Sam's clothes, and a bag that Laural had brought from home, kicked and fell off the couch. She had brought her Sunny Bunny with. We have cats and all I could think of was having to tell her that Sunny was dead. When they got home from mushrooming I lectured her on bringing the rabbit and what might have happened to it. Laural took the lecture with no complaints. Poppy came in a short time later and told me that Laural wanted to give the rabbit to Jacob, the little boy with cancer. Boy did I have to eat my words. This would have been a real sacrifice for Laural, she loves that rabbit, talks about it all the time, writes stories about it, etc.. I learned a true lesson in pure love that evening. We didn't take the rabbit to Jacob, because we were in the car all day.
This story has brought a tear to many an eye, including my own. I gave twice what I normally would at the benefit that evening. I couldn't come close to what she was willing to give. Jesus said we must become as a little child.

Story:
After fighting a drug addiction for the past 12 years I lost my father and a daughter I never got to meet while incarcerated. Upon my release I went back to drugs to hide my pain and back to crime to support my addiction. Facing 14yrs to serve I fully gave my Life to Jesus and he blessed me with 6 months rehab and brought me to peace with my loss I heard this radio station while in jail and it led me to become saved and i was released from jail on the 8th of this month and today i am at home for mothers day. I begin rehab on the 12th and after losing everything i had including money, clothes, father and daughter. today God gave me clothes and the funding for my rehab, also i am at peace with the death of my father and daughter. Together with Jesus today i am better , together tomorrow i will grow stronger and together forever I will walk with Jesus. As a living miracle of God i truly believe there is no where the will of God will take me that the Grace of God cannot protect me. For those who are lost like i was please read Jeremiah 29: 11-14, and believe God has a plan for us all. Also read Matthew 7:7-8. I asked and received, sought and found, knocked and the door was opened and shall never be shut. Thank you K Love!!!!
