Today was an awesome day at church!! A while ago I wrote about …finding faith…, where I described a person in my community who left and denounced the LDS church and accepted Christ. Much has happend in the life of this family, and today, the spouse came forward and accepted Christ. I am still piecing everything together that God has done in their lives to bring them to this point! It’s amazing! The person who came forward today has an immediate family member who holds a position of high authority in the LDS church (quorum of the 70), so I’m just in awe of God, and I’m so encouraged because there have been so many people praying for this family! This reaffirms so much within me, and stirs and enkindles my hopes and deeper prayers for those near to me who I pray will enter into a relationship with Christ.
The testimony of God drawing this family actively demonstrates that He is active and that although I may not see how He is working in the heart of my husband, I am so encouraged and refilled with new hope and patience in God’s proccess of drawing him in.
++Father, thank you for loving me personally and being my greatest cheerleader. Thank you for drawing my friends to you, so that they are now my family in You… I am so excited to welcome them and to grow with them in knowing you. Please continue to work in Mike’s heart, draw him to Your pure love.++

That’s such an encouraging post. Praise God for what he is doing.
I love it when God does stuff that we don’t think possible. It just shows how much he is in control and how much we need him for anything of value to be accomplished.
Thanks for sharing it with us.

Neat post. This is encouraging. My wife and I have lifelong friends who are Mormon. We get a nice newsletter from them every Christmas. They are in San Diego. I keep praying for them. Thanks for sharing this story.
