I don't know what to say... I never went through any trials or tribulations before I was saved. I just realized at a very early age we all needed God.
As a family, we went to church every Sunday. God was in my life from the time I could remember. When my sister and I ask Mom to read us a story, it came from the Bible... God's Word.
Between the age of 15 and 17 I became very curious of His word and what our Parents had taught us and impressed on us. In November of 1972, in my parents living room, I bowed my head and ask God to forgive me and for Jesus Christ to come into my heart and make me a new creature, during a Billy Graham Crusade on November 23, 1972.
I have never looked back, nor denied my Father and Savior. I may have disappointed Him, but I never denied Him.
He is my Refuge and my Life and I love Him and trust Him with all my heart soul and strength.
Thank you Father, thank you Jesus, my heart is always yours!
