Grandchildren accepting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour!! WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!
Can you tell I’m happy? Well you’re wrong because I am not happy………I am ECSTATIC!!!
My heart is about to burst because another one of my grandchildren is now telling the world that He is a child of God!
To know how excited I am you would have to know Alex. Walking that aisle and being in front of people was so hard for him because he is not one who wants to draw any attention to himself. We have all known that he loves Jesus but we just weren’t sure how long it would take for him to be able to make that walk! When I think of it I don’t know why it is surprising that he did it sooner than I thought he would. After all, God is bigger than any of our fears, isn’t He? But since we know that Jesus wants us to publicly acknowledge Him before men it means everything that Alex made his profession of faith in Jesus public today! Of course he is just a child and has a long road ahead of him, but so are we all just “babes” in Christ and hopefully growing everyday!
Yes, Alex, you made your Mama and Daddy and Gran and Papa so happy and proud today, but more importantly, you made your Father in Heaven proud!
And, by the way,…..thank you Jesus that because of your sacrifice, we can come to you just as we are!
Here are some of Jesus' very own words:
“Everyone who acknowledges me publicly here on earth, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven.” Matthew 10: 32.
“I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.” Luke 15: 7
As Amy Grant sings, today was "better than a Hallelujah!"
Below are pictures of Alex as he was at the time he was first born and how he is at the time of his
new birth as a Christian!
