| Favorite Scripture: | Psalm 37:4 which says "Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart," is where I "am" right now. I Love Jesus and I want to show Him more and more everyday. This scripture promises that if I do this, he will give me the things that my heart most earnestly desires, and for me these are not material things, but more of Him and the things He desires for me. |
| Favorite Hymn: | Marvelous Grace by Julia Johnston and I Surrender All by Judson Wheeler Van DeVenter |
| Testimony: | I would not try or even do I desire to do anything which does
not have God's
"stamp of approval" on it. Many people look at individuals in the world
and
think that success means having lots of money, fame and material things,
but this is not true success. I'd rather have Jesus, who is everything to me and already owns everything so what more do I need? |
