Franklin Graham – It’s a story only God
could write. When retired Alabama police officer Terrell Potter’s
kidneys failed and he was told by doctors that it would be a 7-8
year wait for a transplant, he had no idea what was about to happen
next. A woman that he had locked up several times in the past as
she struggled with an opioid addiction read about his need on
Facebook and knew she had to do something. Jocelynn James said,
“I just threw my phone down and the Holy Spirit told me right
then that I had that man’s kidney!”
Jocelyn has been sober for years and credits Officer Potter with
helping turn her life around. She was a match for the kidney and
Terrell gave the credit to God. “It’s not a coincidence. It’s
just God. There’s no other way.” The rest is history. The
transplant was successful and both Terrell and Jocelyn are doing
well. God used Officer Potter to bring healing in
Jocelyn’s life, and He used Jocelyn’s obedience to forever
change his life. The Lord can use each of us for great things when
we walk in obedience to His leading. The Bible says, “For it is
God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good
pleasure” (Philippians 2:13).

(FOX NEWS) A woman’s kidney donation has saved the life of
anAlabama police
officer who put her in jail.
Phil Campbell officer Terrell Potter had locked up Jocelynn

looking at Facebook, Fox

His kidney had failed. Doctors told him he faced a seven- or
eight-year wait for a new one.
“I just threw my phone down and the Holy Spirit told me right
then that I had that man’s kidney,†James said, according to
the station.
Tests confirmed she was a perfect match.
“If you asked me 100 names of who may give me a kidney, her
name would have not been on the list,†Potter said, according to
the station. “It’s just unbelievable that she was willing to do
that.â€
James, who now runs a nonprofit that provides drug counseling to
women, donated the kidney to Potter in July at Vanderbilt
University Hospital in Nashville.
They are both doing well.
“In my mind, I’m just doing what God told me to do, give him
my kidney,†James told WVTM-TV,
which first reported the story.
Potter told the station, “It’s very humbling to have
somebody would give you a part of their body to extend your
life.â€
Of the chances that James would be a match, he said, “It’s
not a coincidence. It’s just God. There’s no other way.â€
