I know you know how I have been praying for my Daddy...
Well, you see that picture above that aisle he walked me down to give me away in marriage... He walked that same aisle last night for a different reason... He walked down and knelt at the foot of the cross and invited Jesus in his heart!!!!!!!
I am so proud of him, I know how hard it was for him to step out... words can not describe how I feel. I have chills as I type about this, I have goosebumps and I feel like shouting all over again!
God was at work all day, I felt the heaviness... it was a feeling that I have never had...
It is so hard to describe, words are not adequate for the experience.
I have been saved for 18 years, and I have been praying for my Daddy all through that time.
God worked through my Moma, who was the one to invite Daddy and his wife Vickie and their family to church.
I am so proud of you Moma, for moving when the Lord prompted you to move.
I am much more aware now of how God wants to work in my life... He wants to do incredible things if we are obedient enough to go when He says go and move when He says move.
I believe God brought revival to our church, to our hearts and to our family...
14If my people, which are called by my name, shall 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.
I have a couple of songs on my heart... one is...
Shoutin Time
I will arise and go to Jesus
He will embrace me in his arms,
In the arms of Christ my Savior,
Oh there are then thousand charms
Chorus)
Its shouting time in heaven
A sinner once lost is found
Its shouting time in heaven
Salvation has been brought down,
No wonder the angels rejoice to know
My sins have been covered by the crimson flow
And now I’m feeling fine
I’m walking on the highway with my Lord
My name is written down in courts above
Its shouting time in heaven,
Oh yes, its shouting time.
Come ye weary, heavy laden
Lost and ruined by the fall
If you tarry till your better,
You will never come battle
What a blessing! I am so very happy for you and your family. Thank you for posting that scripture. It is a woderful reminder that we need to be obedient to the Lord.
That is such a beautiful story thanks for sharing!
Our God is an Awsome God!!!!
