consumed:
NOT A ONE from the clan.
and we are MANY here (7 generations).
they think i'm nuts (glad i have a "crutch" though
)
exceptions:
my sister....it took 3 years of persisting. one day she got fed up and said OKAY!!!!!
"i'm getting us a cabin on the beach for two nights. bring your bibles. if you can't convince me I AM SICK TO DEATH OF THIS AND NEVER WANT TO HEAR IT AGAIN."
...............................
after 11 hours of preaching and showing, she went into the bathroom and slumped to the floor and i heard sobbing.
i went on the balcony and cried and gave thanks.
she came out a while later and IMMEDIATELY called all her friends "I BELIEVE IN JESUS!" (most hung up).
daughter is working it quietly, and The Lord is responding in kind: answered prayers (about silly things, proving he is listening...she tells me later).
my son believes (strong bull in faith): he said...not because of what you have said for years, but because i have SEEN for myself what Jesus has done in your life"
and now I BELIEVE....and i know Him too.
John 4:42
They said to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world.”
