Martha,
Thank you for this insperational message. Yes, we all question our faith from time to time. I know I have. It seems that I have a lot lately because of health issues. But the Bible also tells us that God will not give us more than we can handle and I know this.
Roy, If you listen to the video again you will see that Martha says that Mohummad Ali opened his "BIBLE" to a passage in Psalms. Just because he might practice a different faith doesn't mean he doesn't read the Bible which is Gods Word...
God Bless You Martha and please keep up the good work with these videos. I find them very helpful and refreshing. Laraine
Hello,
I'm a big fan of your show TBAA and a have a question for you.
I am french and still waiting for the french dvd.
Do you think there's a chance it happens?
I am really sad because frecnh television didn't released all episodes and it's impossible for me to read us dvd's with my french gear.
Thanks for answering.
God bless you

Dear Maam
I really think you mis-stated my response to your answer.I in no way meant for you to mis state my response. It is plainly written that God is a God of love. You are correct in every way to say that God indeed does love everyone of us. And just as the bible says and i quote There is a way that seemeth right unto man but the end therefore is the way of death. So there is a right way and also a right way to approach God .And that is through his son only. And his son is Jesus Christ. I did not mean for you to state that i was in any way against any man or wowman.I merely said what is written in the INSTRUCTION BOOKLET I in no way am a hate monger. i am just very careful to what i adhere to. and that is the "BIBLE" only,
May God bless you in every way

Hi Martha,I love all of your touch by an angles and wish that they would still come on.I would set aside everything that i was doing to watch it every day.How many episoles are there and how can i get the ones thats not in the stores,can you mail that information to me at curlie mae correa-4719 stillwood cove-forest park,ga 30297 maybe i can purchase 1 a month from my disability check . will you make more touch by an angels starting with monaca when she get the car from tessie.thank you in advance for answering my letter. God continue blessing you in all your work for him.
Dear Martha,
I didn't see the Ali episode and am sorry I didn't, but the first time I saw Touched by an Angel I thought this is so wonderful and I just knew they would take it off instantly . Thank God I was wrong .
I'm still watching on cable each day that I can during the week. It inspires me, helps, consoles me when I need
it.
Thank you for sharing it with all of us out here just trying to make our way through life.
Warmest Regards and Thanks, Lisa Boyd
Hi Martha,it was a nice video,I wish I watched the real one,the one with Mohamad Ali,so people can see that you were talking about the same God,unfortanly there is some ignorant people like Roy Jones Sherman from Texas that they have the wrong information about other religions,read more and learn,I am going to pray for you Roy and God Bless you Martha.
This was a wonderful video and touching story. Thank you for sharing this with all of us. I don't think there is anyone that cannot relate to this feeling. God Bless you, Jackie
hello martha, may god bless you for what you do. and how you up lift me and others. may god allways keep his arm around you and you keep the good work up. i love to here you on the video. and reading.the word of god.you have a blessed day shirley orr.
I like that. Thats what I believe God is like- He loves us all no matter what faith we are, no matter what we beleive out of fear- He loves us and forgives. And if we all loved like that we'd already be in Heaven.
i HAVE READ AND DO LOVE YOUR LETTERS OF FAITH FROM SO MANY OF YOUR LISTENERS.i AM 86 YEARS AND FROM A SMALL NON-DENOMINATIONAL CHURCH, WE LOVE AND ACCEPT ANY AND ALL PEOPLE, REGARDLESS OF WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE OR WHAT THIEER FAITH IS,EVERYONE IS OUR FAMILY .
MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU WRITING AND INSPIRING PEOPLE.
yOUR FAITHFUL SISTER IN CHRIST OUR GREAT AND HEAVENLY FATHER
This is in response to Mr. Jones' comments about "the God Ali worships". Mr. Jones, there is but ONE God, though people of different religions refer to Him by different names. It is not Ali's God or any other God that calls you an "infidel"--it is MAN'S word for an unbeliever,that is, anyone who does not share their particular belief. Yes, God is a God of Love, and it it man's words of condemnation, not His, that people use to downgrade or dismiss others. I don't believe that God is so small and so exclusive that only few can approach His throne. I believe His love is for all of us.
God Bless all who take timeto hear Gods word.or perhaps read gods word.
Dear sir
Make sure you know which God Ali is referring to. Because the God that he is talking about. Is not the God that i worship. My God is the God of love. The God that he is talking about is a God that refers to me as an infendel. And shoukd be destroyed,Think about it. Just read the koran and you will see,
Roy Jones Sherman Texas
Dear Martha. I am not sure I ever saw your show but after reading the responses from so many people, I must say that you/the show has helped so many, loving, caring confused hearts out there. For this I commend you and anyone else that deserves the credit. In God's name please continue the show and keep touching the children of God in ways you can't imagation.
God Bless.
I know that whenever I have any relationship problem that I have to look at me because I can't change anyone else only myself. I can pray to God until I am blue in the face but if I am not taking any action to stop my behavior then how can God help me?-I believe that He can do anything but I don't believe He will do for me what I CAN do for myself.
If I go to someone who is upset with me and say that I am sorry and ask what can I do to be in your life again to make it right? If I look at what I may have done or am doing that may be causing this person to stay away from me then maybe I can make it right- never mentioning anything that they have done- only my stuff. And pray for guidance and the strength to carry it out.
For Florence Wilson
Your first big step is done ... that is wanting help and wanting the Lord back in your life.
I suggest you keep praying, turn off your cellphone, and stay away from anyone who is using, keep to yourself for a while and don't keep men in your company, until you get with someone who cares for you truly ... find a nice man at your local church.
Keep praying and don't let the devil in ...
God Bless You and keep you in his care!
You see, I am praying for you dear woman~
That is just one more person on your side!
For Pamela's GRANDSON ...
O God, the strength of the weak and the comfort of sufferers: mercifully accept our prayers and grant to your servant "Pamela's grandson" the help of your power, that his sickness may be turned into health and our sorrow into joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
I too have a young grandson and couldn't imagine any of the horror that you are going through. I am praying for him my dear friend!
Ms. Williamson,
I was happy to find your message on my email. As a born again Christian, I have bee reading everything I can get my hands on. You see it took me 48 years to find God. Anyway, I am very moved by your words. Although I have to confess that I have only watched your show a handful of times, I totally enjoyed it. My work schedule does not allow me to watch much TV in the past several years. I am writing you since as a person that obviously has a strong faith, perhaps you can answer my burning question. I pray several times each day and praise the Lord every chance i get. Why do I continually question my own faith. As the days, months and years roll by, although I am appreciative of so many things that the lord has given to me, I continue to question why I suffer emotionally. I am not in a relationship with my daughters and cannot seem to "fix" it. I live for them and my heart will always be broken. As much as I praise the Lord, I cannot be made whole until I get together with my daughters. I actually feel guilty about it. Is my faith not what I think it is? Am I questioning God? I am simply looking for some answers so i can make adjustments in my life.

RIGHTEOUS IS THE WORD HAVING A LOW PROFILE WHEN WE SEE PEREPHERAL.BUT IT IS HAVING ITS OWN SIGNIFICANT VALUE AND ROLE IN EVERY ONE'S LIFE. I WANT HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS THAT WILL PREVAIL FOR ETERNAL.I USUALLY PRAY TO OUR LORD GOD CRIST JESUS GIVE ME MORE OF YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND WISDOM WITH RIGHTEOUSNESS.THATS ENOUGH TO MY LIFE..
ALTHOUGH BY HIS GRACE I AM WORKING AS ACADEMIC ASSISTANT IN REPUTED UNIVERSITY,[JNTU],INDIA.MAY GOD BLESS YOU WILL KEEP YOU AND DRESS YOU.
AMEM......
You have inspired me by the true statement of the state of human mind. Yes, we go away from GOD. But HE is after us to hug us.

Dear Martha,
I get so much junk on my email. I try to delete it all. Luckily, I haven't deleted my Angel emails. I just watched your video on dinner with Muhammed Ali. Although I used to watch Touched by an Angel, almost regularly, I always thought of it as an interesting outlook on the supernatural. Now, I have to say, you are truly an inspired writer, motivator and speaker and God surely has you in the palm of His hand as you inspire others. Thank you.
Dear Martha and friends,
Reading what you women write makes me feel so close to GOD and all of you. I am blessed so much in my life and all I can do is show thanksgiving to the Lord.

Wow, I just by chance read this article, then decided to listen to this video on Mahammad Ali. I am going thru so much at this time, my husband in jail raising 3 kids myself with a part time job, but I have to go home and read psalms because it says god shall not forsake us no matter how humiliated or despaired we may feel. There will be light thru that cloud of misery. And we shall be only that much closer to god, which in turn will make us my family much closer too.
PS. I loved "Touched by an Angel" my all time favorite. My friends rush for Desperate Housewife's " as I did for your show. Excellent, we need more shows like that one.
Dear Martha,
I was touched by all the stories I read. The Lord is wonderful and I live only to serve Him. I was already in my mid 40s when I gave my life to Christ. The Lord gave me the gift of song. I am now in my 50s and feel that I am too old for such a gift. Everytime that I try to do something with my songs. (which I get when I am half a sleep.) I fall flat on my face. I have sang in a few churches. But I don't play any instruments to go with my songs. I don't know what to think. I just put myself in God's Hands. Please pray for me. I want to do his will, But as a human, I still get confused. May God bless you Greatly, and keep you In His Loving Arms.

This message touched my spirit this morning. Thank God, I don't have any major problems in my life; not to say that I haven't had my own personal mountains to climb in the past. But this segment regarding Muhammad Ali warmed my heart. I too, wish that Touched by an Angel still came on,,,,,somewhere in syndication. I belong to Netflix and have requested the series from them. It still makes me smile to look at the old stories with "Tess" and "Angel girl."
I am forwarding this video to my friends, as I know they will enjoy it also.
Dear Alice,
I am a writer. If you would like to tell me your story maybe I could write it. Please contact me at purplefences@aol.com
Dear Martha. During my roughest times i always think i have. Then i remember what JESUS went through for all of us and it doesnt seem so bad anymore. Thank you for shareing youtself with us GOD BLESS you and all the things you do in CHRIST. Betty
Dear Martha,
This morning I wook up with a heaviness in my heart. I didn't sleep well last night because of a family incident that occured only yesterday. My family has always been very close and it pained me that we could be going through this. I asked God why he had forsaken me because I feel so beaten. But after watching this little segment of you with Ali I understand. I feel that no matter what I am going through, that I will be strong again and rise above. Maybe we will soar higher next time around. Thanks for the reminder that the Lord never really forsakes us.
HELLO MARTHA,
I LOVE YOUR INSPIRATIONAL VIDEOS AND BELIEVE GOD SPEAKS TO US, GIVES US MESSAGES AND INSITES, IN OBVIOUS AND VERY SUTLE WAYS AND SITUATIONS.ALL OF US GO THROUGH TRIALS AND UPS AND DOWNS AND I BELIEVE THAT WILL CONTINUE ALL OUR LIVES BUT THEY MAKE US AND OUR FAITH STRONGER. I THINK YOU HELP AND TOUCH MORE PEOPLE THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW!
THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU!
Dear Martha does repeats of touched by an angel still come on and which station? I have dish network thanks Wayne For like others really dig the show.
Martha,
God's spirit can withdraw from us when we don't pray genuinely or commit infractions. In David's case he started out having God's spirit as a youth or as the Bible puts it he after God's own heart. But as he grew older and became King he committed some very serious infractions--he committed adultry with one of his soldiers wives who was Bathseba and she became pregnant. To cover it up he had her husband killed. This displeased God. He lied and killed. Later in life he repented of his infractions and restored his relationship with God again as we must all do. Thank you for sharing a nite with Mohammed Ali his reading Psalms and questions about them. Psalms were mostly written by King David who was one of the great Jewish Kings. Marie
i would like to find out how to email Martha Williamson.I want to ask for her prayers and if she could tell me how to find a writter to do a book about an accident i was in while shopping.I don't have the money to pay a writter,i would if i could.Alice
i need someone to tell me how to email Martha Williamson.I keep getting yahoo and that is not who i use.
I would have loved to read the segment on Muhammed Ali but it would not come up on my secreen. I have one of the best systems available amd have never had this problem before. "This page unavailable kept popping up".
Thank you,
Rebekah
If Gods own Son, our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus ask the same question..,"Why has Thou forsaken me",how much more as mortals would we..,with no dout be subject to ask the same?
The same scripture is where I find my answer for over all spiritual strenght..,(Not my will, but Thy will be done). And trying to do the best that one can inside the frame of goodness...,in addition to our mortal nature of weakness.
In all due respect
james
In your video, you quoted Psalm 42, not Psalm 41, it's important to people who need this passage to have the right one!
umm.... NO. Martha is in no way related to Marianne. The latter is very "new age" and I think a guru to Oprah.
Anyway, what a beautiful witness. Thank you, Martha. What a beautiful reflection of a REAL God who never changes, even tho our lens on him seems to. Maybe it's because nothing else in our lives is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, and in fact, that's not valued. We can hardly fathom it. But a perfect God, who at times seems too good to be true, is all we need yesterday, today and tomorrow. Amen.
I've watched and admired "Touched by an Angel" and Ms Williamsons dedication to getting this show produced. Recently there has been great controversy around another lady, Marianne Williamson, and her writings. Is Martha related to and or aware of her writings.
Martha,
Thank you for this wonderful message. I am forwarding this to my brother who never reads anything I send but is a huge sports fan! I am hoping he'll see Muhammad Ali's name and watch the video because it's a message he needs right now!
God Bless you for everything you are doing with this website.
"THANK--YOU " SO MUCH !! THIS REALLY GOT ME. I HAVE HOPE AND THINGS WILL GET BETTER I KNOW. I JUST WENT THROUGH A DIVORCE IT TOOK 2 YEARS AND I'M LIVEING IN A RENTED HOME AND HE HASN'T SIGNED THE PAPERS YET FOR ME TO RECIVE MY MONEY AND I HAVE SO MANY "BILLS" I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO . I'M GOING UNDER SOON IF SOMETHING DON'T HAPPEN.I REALLY TRY TO THINK POSITIVE AND IT HELPS. AND HEREING THIS MADE ME FEEL BETTER .PRAY FOR ME PLEASE.
I have really enjoyed this!!! Recently I had to close a business that I really wanted to make a go of, it is very hard to stay up beat and positive and know God has sometime great out there for me as I re-enter the job market. I am still trying to make it happen. I need to trust and let go knowing all is well. God Bless...
I can't tell, how encouraging this site has been since the lost of my mother on 10/4/07, who was really my best freind, who help me raise my (3)children, after becoming divorced about 12 year ago. I remember thinking in the elevator, after the diagnose from the doctors, of my mother having 4th stage lung cancer who did not smoke, I began thinking I wished, Touch By A Angel, still came on TV. It ministered to me a few times, regarding situations in my life.The next week I received a email form belief.net with Martha speaking about comfort and the 23rd psalms, a psalms my mother and grandmother spoke of many times through our family challenges.
Thank you again, I am still a beleiver and still standing and praying.
God's Love and mine,
Angel
GOD BLESS THIS IS MY MORNING COFFE GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME I HAVE SO MUCH TO BE THANKFUL FOR HE WOKE ME UP THIS MORNING AND STARTED ME ON MY WAY HALLEJAUH
God is the strength of my soul. He will show us the right way. I look forward to your messages of faith. It lets me start the day on a peaceful note.
I am so greatful that I stood in line to receive his (Muhammed Ali, AKA Cassius Clay, of Louisville, KY) spiritual book from the back of a truck in Louisville one year. He was on the truck handing these books out to persons. I kept the book of course, and perused it some. I am a Southern Baptist and was raised in the Methodist faith, "sprinkled" as a 13 year old teenager at Revival the year I stepped forward to accept Him as my Christ. We had the ministers in our ome for a fried chicken meal, in our household in the hills of Eastern KY, 1950. Then I wed as a young 18 year old Southrn Baptiist and was baptised into his faith. We have been members of our church for 52 years. OH, my Mother taught us manners that we were to allow the ministers to select their favorite pc. of chicken and to not divulge our favorite piece of chicken. We had a prayinh Mother. Atitle of our family poem written by my sister, widowed this Jan. 17, 2008, after 49 years of marriage in Dec. Her husband suffered a heart attack Christmas, had surgery to repair his ailing heart, went into a coma and never spoke or responded to them for a long 3 weeks period. Please remember Betty in your prayers, for her lonliness and her grief at this time. Bill was a Southern Baptist minister and a musician. We miss him. Thank you all.
God bless you............this is my morning coffee..........God is good! Refreshes and fills my soul with goodness!
ALLELUIA!
NAMASTE
