A new sister

This week we are praising the Lord that K made a decision to follow Christ!

I don't even know that I've had a chance to post on here that K and her 2 year old son moved back into PDE after a year away.  She really suffered during that year and showed tremendous growth in humility and maturity.  It has been really hard for me to watch her have such a hard time, but I have never let a girl back into the home after they choose to leave because of their own rebellious.  However, after much prayer and listening to God's leading, I presented the option to her.  She was over-joyed and promised that this time would be different... and it has been.

The first big noticeable difference was her attitude towards the things of God and studying His Word. In the past she had always been willing, but not eager, and had a very uninterested way about her.  She sat through church because she had to and did Bible studies because I asked her to, but she asked no questions and made no effort to dig any deeper.  Within the first week of moving back she was asking me to teach her more about God and study His word with her.  She started going through a book of the basics of Christianity with the house mom, on her own initiative!  And then, came to know Christ as her own Lord and Savior!  Praise God! :)

We have seen such growth in a short time.  We know that God has been working on her for years and we are thankful to see fruit springing forth now that she has made a decision for Christ.  It shows in her attitudes, her service, and her love for her son.  Today I am starting a study with her for new believers, pray that she continues to learn and grow!
