Where: At the Altar in Church

Her Testimony

When I was a child, my parents took me to church regularly. I grew up believing in God and knowing that Jesus died for our sins.

In a revival one night, I realized that if I had not been saved (and I knew that I had not) then I was God's enemy. I realized I was a sinner who needed God just as much as anyone else ever did. Previously, I knew I needed to be "saved" but I thought since my parents took me to church and I was a good person that I had an advantage over other "sinners." I thought I was not as bad as other people. I was wrong. A person is either "For" God or "Against" God.

After I knelt in the altar to pray, I soon forgot about everyone praying around me. I was praying to God for myself. I asked God to save me. I was willing to do anything if God would just save me. I was determined to stay there as long as it took for Him to save me.

God saved me that night - Tuesday, June 22, 1976. I felt incredible peace like I have never known before or since that night. I had peace with God.
