July - August Message
 "WHAT'S THE BIG RUSH?"
Everywhere you look people are rushing here
and there but who knows where they are going? They do not even know.
Their lives have just become a big rat race running to and fro. Do
you notice the time going faster and faster? God is speeding up the
time. He says in the bible in the last days before the return of
Christ the days would be shortened. Matthew 24:22, If those days had
not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the
elect, (those chosen by God), those days will be shortened. This is
all part of the Signs of the end of the Age. Read all of Matthew
Chapter 24. The bible says in Psalm 127:2, In vain you rise early
and stay up late, toiling for food to eat-for he grants sleep to
those he loves. We are seeing that already. People in other
countries do not have food to eat and go to bed with empty stomachs.
We must never take God’s goodness of love and mercy for granted. It
is important we never become a nation too proud to need God’s help.
2 Chronicles 7:14, if my people, who are called by my name, will
humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their
wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin
and will heal their land. As soon as we do, watch out! 1
Thessalonians 5:3, while people are saying, “Peace and safety,”
destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant
woman, and they will not escape.” The problem is we have forgotten
the Lord and he is not hearing our prayers and has closed his ears.
1Peter 3:12, “For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his
ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is
against those who do evil.” Righteous one, God has not forgotten
you! God has promised to take care of you. Psalm 37:25-26, I was
young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken
or their children begging bread. They are always generous and lend
freely; their children will be blessed. The righteous always has
plenty, more than enough. Their baskets are overflowing with the
goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Praise God! Read
about the blessings and curses in Deuteronomy Chapter 28. As we keep
Jesus first place in our life, love the Lord will all our heart,
soul and mind, Matthew 22:37-38; God will always take care of us
saints. You never need to worry just put your total trust in the
Lord, Matthew 6:26-34, Do Not Worry. We need to make the most of
every opportunity because the days are evil and the enemy is seeking
whomever he can devour. Resist him, standing firm in your faith
because your brothers around the world are undergoing the same kinds
of suffering the bible says. Rejoice and look up, your redemption
draweth nigh! Praise the Lord! Ephesians 5:15-17, Be very careful,
then, how you live-not as unwise but as wise, making the most of
every opportunity, because the days are evil. Verse 17, therefore do
not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. It is so
important we find out what God’s will is and not waste our time any
longer doing what the enemy would have us to do. He is out to steal,
kill, and destroy, John 10:10. Are you going to let him? He is out
to stop and hinder you from doing all that God has for you to do.
God has a purpose and plan in mind for you. In order to find out
what God’s good plan is, you must slow down and sit at the master’s
feet. Don’t be in such a hurry. Take time to breathe in the fresh
air and smell the beautiful flowers all that God has created.
Remember God is the reason we live, move and have our being. He is
our everything! Without him in our life we are going absolutely no
where. Today if you are not sure about your salvation or you have
never asked Jesus into your heart and life, you can be sure you are
born-again and on your way to heaven. God has a great plan for you
and wants to keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come
upon this whole earth.
Love in Christ,
Dawn O’brien
Servant of the Lord
“ Dear Jesus, I am a sinner in need of a savior. Come and save me. Wash me and cleanse me with your atoning blood. I want to be born-again. I invite you to come into my heart and make it a habitation, a place for your glory to dwell. I want to follow you and be a disciple of Christ. Get me ready in this New Year, so you can use me to do your work. I submit my will and ways to you. Thank you, Dear Jesus, for dying for me. Amen! and Amen.” I promise you, if you said that prayer and meant it, you will not be sorry! Get yourself in a bible believing church that preaches the whole word of God. The reason we go to church is to fellowship, be encouraged, and strengthened in the Lord. So, be a part of all that God is doing and go share what the Lord has done for you! Celebrate what the Lord has done for you in 2008, a year of new beginnings!
The Lords Servant,

Prayer of Waiting on the Lord
Dear Lord I pray I will see my need to quietly wait patiently upon
you. Father it is in your strength do I wait and trust you. May I
know your guidance, wisdom and direction for all the daily decisions
I must make. “Holy Spirit,” I ask you to be with me through out the
day, help me to know you love me and are always there to help me.
Lord, you never leave me nor forsake me, Hebrews 13:5. Father, let
me never be satisfied until I have yielded completely to your
perfect will and have allowed you to have your way in me. Your ways
are not mine, Isaiah 55:8-9. I trust you dear Lord to make a way
where there is no way!

 Recap
for the month of July and August
Greetings brothers and
sisters in Christ,
I pray everyone is doing well in the Lord. We are keeping very busy
as we wait upon the Lord to open new doors in the ministry. They
that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength like the eagle.
They shall run and not grow weary, walk and not be faint, Isaiah
40:29-31. Our God gives us strength day after day. It is in him that
we find our strength. Trust him today for all your needs whatever
you maybe struggling with. He is there just call on him and whisper
that wonderful name, “Jesus.” He is a right on time God and will
come to your rescue. I want to tell you a little bit of what we have
been doing. Our video is going to be done soon. Now, we are waiting
for permission with MADD and legal rights so we can do some
interviewing with the president and others. The video is going to be
awesome when it is done. Also I am busy writing two books,
“Recognizing the Forces of Satanic Oppression” and a new one I am
excited about. Ladies, this book is for you. God birthed this in my
spirit while I was writing the first book. It is called “Women on
the Rampage.” There are women out there that are called to do a
mighty work for the Lord. You have a prophetic voice that is going
to shake the demonic forces of evil! Halleluiah! It is your time
ladies! You are going to prophecy and speak boldly in the Lord
tearing down the walls of satan. The enemy wants you to be quiet and
hush up. He does not want you to come forward and speak violently.
God is going to remove all fear and lies of the enemy telling you
that a woman is to be quiet and not say anything. I am going to
share scriptures with you. God showed me some things early in the
morning and I cannot wait to do this book. I am not quiet and you
will not be either. If we shut up the rocks will cry out Jesus said.
We are not doormats no we are God’s anointed women here to do
something mighty for the kingdom of God! We have also been visiting
the elderly in the nursing home for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.
We had an event at the Orlando Jam Fest and we are planning to have
a volunteer meeting in July. We are in need of more volunteers to
help us in this ministry. We need people to help set up a booth and
run the booth when I need to speak at an event. Also, people will be
needed in time when we travel. This is all in God’s timing. We just
take one day at a time and you need to do that as well. God’s grace
is sufficient! If you would like to volunteer your time, hear Dawn
O’brien speak at an event you are having please contact us on our
website at
www.dawnsheartfeltcorner.org or you may call our phone
line at 407-245-7371 and someone will get back to you promptly. Also

and when you write if you feel led in your heart to give a gift to
the ministry we are tax deductible. We are a 501 © 3 ministry and

Things are happening in our ministry. Here are some things I am
asking for you to please pray for:
More Volunteers to help in this ministry.
Finances and Monthly partners so we can go forth and do all that God
wants us to do. Internet Radio and Radio Stations have asked for us
to come on the air but this is going to take funding from the
people. We do not have the funds to pay for the radio airtime. There
are a lot of expenses involved in running a non-profit 501 © 3
ministry. But the Lord provides and he is our source. So, just keep
us in your prayers and if you feel led in your heart to give a gift
or partner monthly with whatever you can afford we would very much
appreciate it. All gifts are tax-deductible. We are a 501 © 3
ministry and we will write you out a receipt and you can claim it on
your taxes at the end of the year

Dear Dawn,
I just returned from the Victim Awareness Program at the Florida
Safety Council in which you spoke. I can\'t thank you enough for
your courage and forgiveness. I have obviously made a few bad
choices in my life, if I hadn't made those choices I probably
wouldn't be writing this email. I am fortunate in that I was stopped
for DUI before I had the chance to hurt someone and for that I am
truly grateful. Meeting you today put a face to the person or people
I could have hurt and for that I thank you again.
Sincerely, Andrew Douglas
Hi my name is Stephanie.
You came and gave a speech to my school (Coral Springs Charter)
about drinking and driving and about your experience. I was really
touched by your words and I am very sorry for what has happened to
you. On November 25, 2005 I had lost my next door neighbor, who was
my best friend, someone who I grew up with and someone who meant so
much to me from drinking and driving. I wish he didn’t make the
decision he made. He was taking home one of his friends at around 2
in the morning and lost control of his car. They both passed away.
It was Thanksgiving night so he was really drunk from celebrating. I
miss him so much and I cry every night and constantly think about
him. I just want to say thank you for coming into my school and
giving a speech because I know some people that you did touch and I
want to say thanks. There isn’t many people I can talk to about him
because not a lot of people know what it is like but I know you went
through a lot with it and I just want say god bless and thank you.
