A NEW NAME IN GLORY


There's a new name written down in glory, And it's mine, O yes, it's mine.
And the white-robed angels sing the story, "A sinner has come home."
For there's a new name written down in glory, And it's mine. Oh yes, it's mine!
With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven. Never more to roam.

==========
David's wife, Nicole, flew in from California Thursday, October 25th. David witnessed non-stop to her, as did we. The 4 of us attended our Sunday morning services at Coweta Assembly of God. Nicole did not make a decision for Christ during the service but upon leaving she stated she would like to meet and talk to Pastor Gary Rogers. David called Pastor Gary, at his home, and they meet at 5 p.m.
Her life changed when she met Jesus and made Him her Savior, at 5:30 pm, October 28th. We have been praying for Nicole since first meeting her in May of 2004. We have been witnessing non-stop to both Nicole and David since their marriage on April 3, 2005.
GOD ANSWERS PRAYER
PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME

Susan, that is SO awesome!!! And so encouraging! My eldest son is home for a few weeks from out east and he is not living for the Lord. This is just so encouraging to see how we are not praying in vain and that prodigals really do return, often bringing their families with them. Thanks for sharing about your family. Praise God for Nicole and David.

Susan,

Tears of joy are falling down my face. I feel so proud to call your daughter-in-law a sister in Christ! I can still remember the day I was saved at the age of 22 in 1970. It was the most profound and wonderful experience of my days thus far. Rejoice, sister, rejoice. The King is with her!

Myrna said...

I just wanted to say thank you for all the kind words of strength, love and encouragement. For those of you that don't know me ... (most of you) I felt like I had jumped over the grand canyon, but this time, I actually landed on the other side. I did not fall to the bottom and have to ride a donkey back to the top :)

Hugs back to you all -

Nicole
