How I thank God that I found victory at Calvary! I heard the Word of God preached when I was a young married woman, with a little daughter. I knew I wasn’t living the life I should be living before that child. God convicted my heart one night, in a little Brush Arbor meeting, in Missouri. As the minister spoke, it seemed I could see Jesus hanging on the Cross, dying for my sins. It just broke my heart. I wanted to give Him my life. It put such love into my heart that I wanted to serve Him.
As I knelt at that little altar of prayer, Jesus took out fear and condemnation. He put something there I never knew I could have—such joy and peace! I was afraid to go to sleep; I was afraid it would leave by morning. When I awoke, though, it was still there, and I knew it was real. I found that the old-time religion is good day and night; it is the same day in and day out, year in and year out. I just thank God.
The Lord has been faithful to me. He led me to the Apostolic Faith Church where I could see my need for the deeper things of the Lord. It is a marvel to me how He led me here to the West Coast, to within a few blocks of where I could learn more than I had ever known of the teachings of the Word of God.
We have been through many deep trials, but whatever comes our way, the Lord is always there to help. There has always been peace in my heart. I don’t know what I would do if it were not for the faithfulness of the Lord to me.
