My dad survived tuberculosis in Kerville, Texas. He surrendered to preach and began his ministry in a Baptist mission in Gold Run, California. I remember after one Sunday morning service where we met at the Odd Fellows Hall, we were driving down a gravel road to our house. I asked mom if I could become a Christian. She said, 'yes'. I asked God to forgive me of my sins and invited Him into my heart. It was that simple. I asked. God said, 'Yes'.
It is easy to forget a lot of happenings in life. This one event was forever etched into my memory. It was the first conscious moment of realizing I needed God and without a struggle inviting Him into my heart. How precious it is that God loves us all and simply wants us to ask.
"You're blessed when you get your inside world—your mind and heart—put right. Then you can see God in the outside world". Matt 5:8
