On Monday nights at Southside, we go out on outreach visitation. Tonight was no exception. Two of our precious deacons and I had the opportunity to go and visit a family that has recently been visiting our church. After a few minutes of dialogue and looking at their beautiful home that was recently remodeled, we settled in to an amazing conversation about JESUS. After a few minutes, one of the family members decided they wanted a relationship with JESUS. So, we knelt on their living room floor and he prayed the most powerful and sincere prayer to receive Christ. Afterwards, another family member prayed a prayer of committment and dedication. Then, they decided they wanted to dedicate their home to the service of the Lord. We prayed to do that and then a whale of tears began to flow from one that surrendered their life. It lasted for several minutes and then our two deacons began to share their testimonies and it was powerful and awesome.
As we concluded, I told that family, "what an amazing legacy that you have laid tonight right here in this living room, a legacy of faith."
WOW, God is great and tonight reminded me why we need to keep our eyes on JESUS and keep telling people about the change that JESUS can make.
