I am very happy to have the privilege of telling just a little bit of what the Lord has done for me. I am so glad that God ever had mercy upon me. He found me way down in Wisconsin, a good many miles from here. The power of God was there to draw me to the Lord.
I was just a young girl, fourteen years old, out in sin. I loved every pleasure that the world had to offer, but I am so glad that God saw me. I Praise God that He saw me and He knew that if I could only hear the Gospel there would be a response in my soul. Once I heard it, I was never the same again. I can truly say that I never enjoyed sinful pleasure after that, and it was not long until I was on my knees before the Lord, crying out to God for mercy. He had mercy on me and He forgave me.
I did not get saved the first time I prayed, nor even the second time. God wanted to make me know that I really wanted it down in my heart before He let me have it. I praise God that I sought Him with tears for about four days. I thought I was the most miserable person who ever walked on God’s earth. One night that will never be forgotten, peace came into my heart. God saved me. He saved me from the old world of sin. I have never wanted that life from that day to this. I have been satisfied. When the Lord saved me, I was happy to know that my burden was gone. There is peace in my soul, and I praise God He has given me victory right along.
I am glad that God can keep us wherever we are if we will do our part, and I have purposed in my heart by the grace of God, that I will do my part. I love God and expect to go all the way with Him.
