 My Testimony

I have been truly blessed with a Christian mother who took me to church all of my childhood and taught me about the Lord. I have heard her call my name in prayer many times and every time I get chills to my spine. I joined the church and was baptized at an early age, but during my early twenties under the preaching of Brother Kenneth Massey, I realized that I was not saved. I became very troubled and knew that if I died I would go to hell. One Sunday night while I lay in my bed I prayed and prayed for the Lord to save my soul. I prayed until I fell asleep. It was some time before I realized what had happened that night. I tried to pray, but the Lord kept taking me back to that night in my bed. I realized that the burden had been lifted and the Lord had saved my soul that night. But that was not all. I didn't tell anyone. I thought no one would ever knew I was lost anyway and I just couldn't get up in front of everyone and tell what had happened. But the Lord knew! It was two or three years later before I told anyone. I was burdened to set things straight with the Church almost as much as when I was lost. I cornered Brother Massey one Sunday morning between Sunday School and Church in the broom closet and asked him to please be sure and have an invitation for Church membership during the service. I joined the Church that morning and was later baptized into true Church fellowship. I could have never gotten up in front of everyone and told my experience without the Lord's help. I felt as though he was lifting me off of that pew and pushing me down the isle.

And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness. They shall abundantly utter the memory of they great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.
Psalm 145-6-7
