C. Read, a US Marine, was stationed in Hawaii during the “Iranian Crisis� of 1979. While she was on a temporary assignment to Yuma, Arizona, the Iranian students seized the American Embassy in Tehran, and took several American hostages.

A special friend of hers was on a six-month deployment to Japan and was prepared to go to Iran at a moment’s notice. It was such distressing time in Read's life, and her love and concern for her friend caused her to call out to God to intervene.

Today marks forty-three years since I gave my heart to the LORD! I was definitely going in the wrong direction back then, but God had a plan to direct me to Him.

I was enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, and my duty station was in Hawaii, but while I was on orders to the desert of Yuma, Arizona on a special mission, the US Embassy in Tehran was taken over on Read more of this blog post »

Forever and ever!
Amen”

and that which is to be hath already been;
and God requireth that which is past.�
