Well, the title really says it all. From the time I was a teenager, this is something I've wanted, hoped for, prayed for. There was always something missing. I kept at it, and tried to be open and willing, and it finally happened. I am filled with God's love and grace. I want to say thank you to all of you, because you played a part in this! Now, back to my Bible--I can't get enough!

Praise the Lord, Cathy! Now just keep your eyes on Jesus Christ, and don't let any human side-track you!

This is great news, Cathy! Welcome to the family. I am absolutely thrilled for you!

Cathy, God bless you honey. I will pray for you as you begin your new life with Jesus. Just remember that the truth is in his Word. Compare any doctrine you are taught with that, and you will be fine. Praise the Lord. The bible says that angels are rejoicing in heaven right now.

Congratulations!!!!and praise God. Good for you.

Cathy! I can hear the rejoicing in heaven even now! The day I was saved, I read the 23rd psalm over and over with amazement...The Lord is MY shepherd..it had all new meaning to me. You will never be alone again, you will never have to worry or ponder what comes after death, you will find yourself time and again staggered at the true peace which comes to you after a talk with God, and you will want to share this unbelievable joy with the world! God is good, ALL the time!

Won't it be neat when we all get to heaven and get to see one another's faces for the first time?!?

-- Kathleen Sanderson (stonycft@worldpath.net), September 26, 2001.

Didn't your life get a lot easier when you just started letting go and letting God take care of you? It did for me. I know that even though circumstances may not always be great, I can handle it. Because God wouldn't give me a burden that I couldn't handle. Thank you God, from one of your flock.

Praisse the Lord. I may never see you in this lifetime but I'll know you all for eternity. My prayers are with you. Love Alison

-- Alison Homa (alisonhoma@aol.com), September 26, 2001.

Praise the Lord!!!! I am so happy for you Cathy and the Bible tells us that the angels are rejoicing also. This is the best news I have heard on this forum yet.

I think about how nice it would be to meet all the good folks on this forum and then I am reminded that we will indeed meet face to face someday in the presence of our glorious God. I pray that this could be true for everyone here.

-- Kathy (jubilant@ncweb.com), September 26, 2001.
