HAVE YOU been praying by for him!?!?!?!

I saw this book in my friend's purse Sunday night at church and just HAD to look it over!!! After reading the first couple of paragraphs I was HOOKED and knew that I was gonna have to order one for myself ASAP!!! AnywayZ, I turned to another one of my friends and was like awwwww... listen to what Debi Pearl says here, "Is there a young man that in passing you have thought would be a good husband? Have you been praying for him by name?" My friend is like "Ooooo"...raises her eybrows at me and is like, "Soooo HAVE YOU been praying for someone by name?!" I think about it for a few seconds... Hmmmmm...Praying for A young man by name?! ONE??? As in singular?!?! I'm all "GIRRRRRL...I'm soooooo SPIRITUAL... I've ACTUALLY... been praying for SEVERAL young men BY NAME!!!" HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Heeeeey... WHY do you think there are sooooooo many awesome, Godly, young men in Pentecost?!?!

Mary's BEEN PRAYING!!! ;)

The Votaws!!!

He has preached all over the US, China, Taiwan, the Philipines, Vietnam and many more Asian countries. He preaches in underground churches in communism countries. He converted a man on death row in prison to Christ and 3 hours before that man died he baptized him in Jesus name. He prayed the first man in Vietnam to kill and americn soldier through to the Holy Ghost and Baptized him in Jesus name. He has converted trinitartin preachers all over to the Oneness doctrine...BUT ABOVE all else...I thank God that I TOO am ONE OF THOSE souls he reached out too...he gave 7 years of his life to New York City!!! I thank God that he answered the call!!! It wasn't until his 6th & final year as pastor there, that our family came into church...we were there for 9 months before we came to AZ and then right after that the Votaws left NYC for the mission fields of Asia...I THANK God that someone had a burden for NYC!!!

Sis. Kathy!!!

This is the woman that invited my Momma to a Pentecostal church!!! She told me that she was actually new in the church herself and that she would see my mom in the front yard of our house playing with us kids and she just wanted so badly for my mom to have what she had just recieved herself. It may have been just one person that she was witnessing to at that time, but that one person has had an affect on her own five children and now its her Grandchildren that are still recieving the blessing of Sis. Kathy's witness. 25 years ago, it wasn't just my mom...I may have only been two at the time, but it was ME she was winning too! I thank God she wasn't afraid to be a witness and that she didn't give up on my mom. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39) When you decide to live for God it doesn't just stop with you!
