I am thankful that I heard the Gospel story when I was just a small child. My parents were converted when I was very young, and I was taken to Sunday school and church as far back as I can remember.
One day I knelt and asked God to be merciful to me a sinner, to help me live the life I knew I should live. From that day to this I have not been out in the world seeking for pleasure, because I found it at the foot of the Cross. I found in Jesus what it takes for a young person to be happy. I found real salvation. He made a complete change in my life.
When I was just a child, my father had a large cancer on his face. He went to the doctor and had it burned out. Oh, the intense suffering he had to go through! After we came to the Apostolic Faith Church, another cancer began to form on his face. We went to the Portland camp meeting and the ministers prayed for him. The cancer went away and it hasn’t come back to this day. That was more than fifty years ago.
A few years back, I was crippled with arthritis. I wondered if I would ever be able to play my violin again. But the Lord healed me and helped me to dedicate my life more fully in service to Him.
The Lord has been with me in school, in my home, and throughout my life. I am so thankful for the privilege that I have had of serving Jesus throughout the years.
