Well, friends and neighbors, I am sad to inform you that the Devil was alive and well at our revival meeting this past week. I suppose we should feel honored that he felt he should show up in the first place! Perhaps we are on the verge of seeing God’s hand move in a great and mighty way.
I prayed that no one would contract a virus or ear infection during our revival, and that prayer was answered. I prayed that everyone would be able to locate their shoes, and that was answered. It’s amazing how those little things can reek havoc on a revival spirit! However, the Devil made his appearance in other ways.
On a happy note, we were blessed to see one young man get saved! He stopped by our house one evening to talk to Terry about something, and come to find out, he wasn’t in God’s family! Hearing of his accepting Christ was really encouraging! I praise the Lord for the work He’s done, and I pray we can see more done for His glory.
Bro. Green brought some tremendous messages. He is a very kind man, and we are blessed to be his friends. He gave us some very good counsel while he was here. I am so proud to have a husband with a teachable spirit! I want to be more teachable, myself.
Even though we had a break from school, I really didn’t rest! I had lots of cooking and cleaning and laundry and practice to do, therefore, blogging was at the bottom of the list that I never completed each day! Thanks for your patience!
Also, thank you for praying for our meeting. Please keep our church in your prayers, if you think of us. I will do my best to post another chapter of my love story soon. God has been so good to me, and I love telling my story for His glory.

See you soon!

  1. Valerie,
    So happy to hear you all had great services, and that your children stayed healthy. I know how that goes :(.

    Our Pastor sure has been preaching some great messages getting us ready for our revival services and I know the devil has been at work. He has tried to discourage me so much this past week.

    Please keep our church and myself 😉 in your prayers this week that the Lord will do a work.

    Hope you have a great week catching up!

    Praise the Lord, Satan didn't get the victory! We're in the middle of a Bible conference this week, so I know exactly what you mean about fighting old smutty-face with prayer. 🙂
