| ~ ~ Salvation ~ ~ I went to Sunday school as a child, I loved it very much. When I was around 12 years old, I just stopped going. I don't know why. I was never saved as a child, I never accepted the Lord as my Lord and Saviour. Well many years later............ It was in December, my daughter turned 1month old. So the hospital set up a date to have a photography place come to my home and take her pictures. So they did. This man, his name is Rick, he is a Blessing to my family. He had said that he drives a Sunday School bus and picks up kids in my neighborhood. I asked about the Church he goes to. I don't know much about all the different religions out there. But hey we all believe in God and that Jesus died for us. He shed His blood on the Cross and died for our sins. First my oldest started going to Sunday School. He loved it! He still does. A few weeks later two Jehovah witness's came to my door. I let them in and we talked. They would come at least once a week. I learned alote about there religion. I did tell them I could not ever be a jehovah. I would like to continue to learn about the Bible. I thank Annette for her presence in my home. The power of the Lord was with her always when she entered my home to help me come closer to Him. I believe she planted the seed. But thier religion is way off tract then what GOd says. They dont believe in the Trinity, I am a firm believer of that now. And they dont believe Jesus died on the Cross. And so much more I disagree with them about. Then one Saturday morning Rick makes his usual rounds to visit and see if Corey is going to attend Sunday School and needs a ride. He finally asked me if I would ever be interested in going to their Church, and so on... I told him I would like that, so the next Sunday I attened, and kept going. This was in April when I finally decided I was going to go to Church and Worship God. I told Annette and she was proud and happy for me. I thank Rick for encouraging me to attend Church. You know, that is what was missing from my life. The presence of the Lord! In May The Pastor had a sermon about being saved. I was puzzled and asked Pastor Crews "how do you become saved?" He was very interested in my question. We went to his office. He told me how I can be saved. I then accepted the Lord as my Lord and Saviour,I gave the Lord my Soul, asked Him to forgive me of my sins. I don't know if most or all people feel this, but I felt a sensation in my heart throughout my body, kinda like a girl that gets butterflies when she has a crush on a boy. That is how I felt. Then in June I decided I was ready to become a member of this fabulous Church I love so much. June 25 I was Baptized in the Holy Spirit with the presence of the Lord. I shared my Salvation with others that I accepted and repented of my sins. I feel so much love. This is what I was missing. His Love and Glory, His Blessings. The Lord has been truly working in my life since then. May God be with you all and send His blessings apoun you. Bring a angel to watch over you. Blessings In His Love Glenna Dahmen |

| But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. ROMANS 10:8-13 KJV |
