A prayer answered

Julian told me on Sunday morning that he wanted to be a Christian. We talked about it, and I asked him why he wanted that and what he thinks that means. He told me he loves Jesus and he knows that he is a sinner and that Jesus died on the cross to take the punishment for his sins. He said he understands what repent means and that he wanted to repent and ask Jesus to be Lord of his life. Jason talked to him too and prayed with him....

Of course we have prayed for this since Julian was a baby - that one day he would make a decision to serve God. Praise God, Our Father loves us enough that He sacrificed His son to save ours.

I am so thankful. This came at a perfect time in our lives - we are so full of discouragement and sadness over so many things, this is a bright light in our cloudy day (really it's been cloudy for weeks!) We have an appointment to talk to our pastor this week and will set something up about a baptism date, so just one more thing to look forward to!
