It's good every day to reflect on the good things in our lives. An attitude of gratitude is important.
My main protagonist
in my book, accepts Christ as her Savior in her sixteenth year; but by the time
she turns eighteen, she learns some hard truths and turns away from Christ. For
nine long years she neglects God and barely speaks to Him.
But over time, she
learns the lengths to which the Father will go to find that one lost sheep.
Once she realized her value to the Father, she became bold to testify about her
story.
My salvation story
contains a near-death experience when I was fourteen. A Sister at church had witnessed
to me just a week earlier. I told her I would give my life to Christ later. I
had things I wanted to do first. She ended the conversation, “Don’t wait until
it’s too late.”
Days later, my family
and I were travelling in a car that had a carbon monoxide leak. I was discovered when my parents stopped way
earlier than they normally did for lunch and realized I was in trouble. Rushed
to the emergency room, I was revived in time to hear the doctor tell my dad,
“It’s good you stopped driving when you did. I don’t know how much longer she
would have lasted breathing in that poison.”
I thank God for that
story because it woke me up. No one is promised tomorrow – not even a 14 year
old girl!
The day of salvation
(accepting the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior) is today!
Don’t wait!
This is Day 3 of a taking my reader along a journey with me as I birth my book. I hope you consider checking in daily to see my progress.
