Well, it seems as if we are getting somewhat better.....yes, this week, myself, Callie & Silas have had the flu/colds. I am doing much better today but Callie and Silas still have cold symptoms that have lasted a week. The closer we get to leaving for the field, the more physical attacks we become placed under.
I did want to mention a couple of blessings from this past week that I thought you might enjoy reading about.
Last Sunday I preached and two young people came forward and accepted Christ as their Saviour! We praise the Lord for working in their hearts and I am thankful that they came forward and made a decision for Christ.
Today, I had the wonderful opportunity to baptize my nephew at our home church. He is 19 and I can see the Lord working on their entire family. I want to give a testimony as to what is making a difference in their home. Kami's sister (Keela) and her husband (William) started becoming faithful to church and wanted to get more serious about their walk with Christ. I gave William a CD of a sermon by David Gibbs, which is my favorite sermon. They listened to it and then downloaded every sermon by David Gibbs they could find and listened to every one. Talk about a shot in the arm! (The Bible says, "The preaching of the cross is to them that perish, foolishness, but unto us which are saved, it is the power of God.") the more solid preaching you put in your life, the more you will grow! They then joined the choir at church, started tithing, and right now, they are on track to finish reading their Bibles through in 60 days! Let me tell you, this is a recipe for revival!
