Testimony of Faith from our dear sister, Teresa J. Crowley

April 10, 2021

So it has been a rough week. I was in the ER not once but twice! Is that how a person starts a testimony?

From the time I was young, I had a yearning to know more of God. I may not have known the intricacies of Him, but there was something that physically drew me to Him. My maternal grandmother died of lung cancer when I was 5 years old. It affected me deeply because I was her nurse attending her bedside as she lay dying. There was nothing that could be done.

At 5 years old, I made a vow that if I ever got cancer, I would not fight, I would not treat, I would just live and die. Doctors were no friends of grandma Grace.

My mom had sent my older sister and I to Sunday school and church in the very early years with a neighbor despite objections from our dad.

Fast forward to high school, at the loss of my grandpa. I was terrified. What would happen to him? Leave him in the ground?? I wandered away from the funeral home. I was a freshman in high school. I landed on the steps of a local Methodist church. I sat there and there, I found some answers.

Then along came my high school best friend that introduced me to Jesus my savior. Thank God for her. We attended church and I learned the basics.

My first critical illness struck at the age of 19. I was diagnosed with a severe case of mononucleosis that lasted in excess of 8 months. Increased bilirubin and chronic fatigue never resolved.

Doctors spent the better part of 20 years testing and eliminating one chronic condition after another.

I was married at the age of 20 to my first love. He cheated, fettered away our money, became verbally and physically intimidating before he left in our second year of marriage. To be forthright, in my very limited bible knowledge, at this point, I thought I was destined to be alone or damned as an adulterous woman because my husband divorced me.

By this time it was apparent that I was barren. It was confirmed in 2004 when a life threatening hemorrhage identified birth defects in my reproductive system and the presence of an autoimmune stem cell cancer that affected 1 in 3 million persons at the time. I was in a relationship at the time. We decided to marry and that union brought into my life 3 children, two of which would be raised knowing me as mom in our home.

My treatment was precarious and lasted 7 years. It was only supposed to be 2. I spent those 7 years with my immune system completely wiped out. In 2010, I was able to wean off the anti rejection medication. My oncologist later revealed I was not expected to leave the hospital after my anti globulin chemotherapy treatments. 30 percent of my blood was being rejected at any one time.

The lifespan of a patient with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobin urea was 10 years at the maximum. That was 17 years ago. Let’s visit the miracle factor in this. Despite the fact that I have outlived the odds, PNH does not by any definition go into remission. For the past 2 years at my annual check in with my oncologist, he has classified me as “in remission!” Glory be to God! There is no other answer my friends. I never allowed death and the grave to be the focus of mental acumen. What I did do was understand that even when I could not pray for myself, I could rely on the prayer of family and friends to touch the ears of Jesus on my behalf.

2 Timothy 1:7 was my verse!

I could stop there but physical illness is quite common these days.

Those two children that God brought me. That was no coincidence. By design, those lives were meant to intersect with mine. The testimony continues.

Raising teenagers is hard. I don’t care who you are. Aaron and Ariel were craving a mother figure yet they were skeptical. One thing I did do on that wedding day in 2004, I set aside a special ceremony for the kids and I. I made a covenant relationship with them as well. As God is my witness, we have tested every fiber of that covenant, yet the bond is still as strong.

Though their father and I are no longer married, we co-parent Aaron our remaining child quite effectively.

Our daughter, along with our unborn granddaughter, was killed in an automobile wreck on March 30, 2013.

In June of 2016, my mom and I were hit head on by an impaired driver. As a result, I have chronic pain and damage to the right rotator cuff and the right hip.

Once again, birth defects thwart any possibility of correcting the hip by surgical means.

On July 19, 2018, my daughter-in-law brutally murdered our 5 year old granddaughter in front of our grandson who was 2 at the time.

On February 3, 2019, my mother-in-law was killed in a multiple vehicle accident.

I highlighted all of these incidents not for sympathy or shock value. I am telling you brother and sisters, the closer you move toward Jesus, the harder the devil is going to fight for your soul. I call it the, “Even now..?”

Even now will I praise Him? Even now will I love Him? Even know will I trust Him to be the Lord and Savior of my life?

To all of that I answer, “Yes, I can and I will!”

Satan, the devil is the author of lies. He came to steal, kill, and destroy. He stole my health, he killed my family, he tried to destroy my peace. But I am here to tell you, there is a new day dawning!

Though my health is questionable, he continues to bring healing and good news! The devil thought asthma and allergies would quiet my voice in praise and thanksgiving, but where I cannot shout, I will sing and use the power of my pen.

Where the devil struck my physical body, God gave me twofold of compassion for the lost and the lonesome.

Where the devil killed my family and left ashes on the ground, beauty will rise up and bring forth new life.

My testimony is very wordy and long, but the simplicity quite apparent.

I will praise Him on the hilltops, I will praise Him in the valleys just the same!

I am not going to sugarcoat anything. Life is hard. Being a Christian is hard. My definition lies in the relationship not the religion. It was only in 2017 when I started talking with God in prayer language. Let’s be real. Everyday, I am a sinner saved by Grace and Mercy. The relationship I have with the Father, that is what makes me ache to be more like Jesus. That ache is the Holy Spirit living inside of me nudging me to do better. Quite frankly friends, until the final curtain call, perfection is not ours. We only become perfected in death as we return to the Father. We are works in progress, still of the flesh until we depart. Don’t be too harsh with yourself or those around you. Be the great commission!!! Love one another!!!

Shalom
