What a first week back home! We are just now seemingly getting back into the swing of things sadly to say. but thankfully all the laundry is done and put away!!! That is a never ending job at our house!
We did a trip to Six Flags with out teens on Tue. we had a blast and the weather was great!!!
I have been waiting for about 3 weeks now to Share this with everyone, but I Need to share it in person with my Home church family first!!!
I want to share what the Lord did in my life while we were at Life Action.
Each morning we had a session with Tom Elliff. a great man of God. One morning he was speaking about Assurance of your Salvation. and so I was taking notes like I always did. He was going down through a list...
1. Have you make an outward decision?
2. Are you living an upward life for the Lord?
3. Do you have Peace with the Lord on where you will spend eternity?
I was able to answer 1 and 2 but when He got to # 3 my heart was pounding out of my chest and I thought that I was going to get sick.
So I got on my knees before the Lord and asked Him where I stood with Him. and after a long time my answer was "No your not a child of mine." I was overwhelmed, but I knew for the past few years that I was doubting my Salvation, but thought to my self " I'm a pastors wife, what would people think ? I Made a decision when I was 5." But when my fear of man and Pride got out of the way the Lord revealed to me that I was...
"Just a Religious Woman, and not a Child of His."
I knew all the right things to say and all the right things to do but I was a Sinner, and I truly wasn't a Forgiven Child of God. So on Tue. Aug. 4Th I gave my Life to the Lord!!
I was nervous about coming home here to MD. but the Lord is so faithful Pastor Wally was starting a line of sermons about Salvation and so on Sunday I shared with our church family here! I was so nervous as I shared, but the Lord was glorified and one of our teens has already come to know the Lord through this, My prayer is that many people will really think through where they stand with the Lord and that He will make clear Yes or No. I'm so thankful for His awesome Grace and Forgiveness. that I now honestly know the meaning of!

All those pictures are soo super sweet! Awww, I love the one with Liam kissing Lanna... awww.
That is awesome about your talk with God. It's scary to think about sometimes. I have my own fears... not of myself, I have definate peace about where I'm going, but for some of the ones I love. I get an uneasy feeling when I think about it. I will share with them what I think, but they always reassure me. Is it the devil trying to hurt me in some way?
Thanks so much for sharing such an intimate part of your life with all of us! And thanks for all those pictures! (Now I want homemade ice cream too!)
Great testimony..thanks for sharing, I understand first hand how scary that can be!
