Today's Service
What a wonderful refreshing! Service today seemed almost electrifying at the beginning, and then if you didn't like what you felt to start with, God changed the flow and it became a deep undercurrent flowing through the place. I had to jump in and enjoy all of it!!!
Melissa Swaim was there with her two children. She and her husband had visited before, and she vowed she would not return - said that our services were a little too much for her! She was raised in a different denomination and wasn't used to the excitement. At the end of today's service, she felt quite differently. Melissa told me that she had found her a church home.
After Keith finished preaching, we had a time of prayer in the altar. When it seemed that we were through, God had other plans. Melissa sat in her chair sobbing. Keith went to pray with her and in less than a minute, she began to speak in an unknown tongue! After she was through praying, she told us that her and her cousin (who invited her) had had a conversation for 2 hours on Saturday about the very thing that Keith had preached on. She went home after their conversation and was thinking on their talk, when a voice spoke to her and told her she needed to come to our service.
Melissa didn't want to leave today without being baptized. The baptistry had been drained and cleaned, but we had it filled in about 45 minutes, and it WAS NOT warm!!! Her husband was called and came to watch. We didn't get home until 3 PM today, but it was soooo worth it!!!
The girls and I are looking forward to Spring Break this week. We had spiritual rest today, now we are looking to get a little physical rest.
Have a blessed week!
