"We know that the law is good if a man uses it lawfully." 1Tim 1:8
Gideon led several people to repentance and to right relationship with the Lord in York, PA on Saturday. He uses the ten commandments as a starting point, asking, "have you ever told a lie?" They say yes and he asks, "what does that make you?" Well, of course, a liar.
There must be conviction of sin before repentance. Unfortunately what we found was a lack of faith, misunderstandings, corrupt minds, and deception. But praise be to G-d in Christ Jesus and the Word-He is faithful to strengthen those whose hearts desire to be faithful.
John's knee was strengthened on Pine Street. James decided to believe G-d and turn from his addiction. James, Anthony, and Tone were grateful for coats, suits, and sweatshirts that had been donated. (Thank you Mr. Nelson.) Many others heard the Word and the Truth. We're still praying for a new eye for Carson.
On Maple Street, Casey came to the Lord and the Word. Several people received New Testament Bibles. The children practiced finding various Scriptures. Many are learning how to use their Bibles.
Johnia's twins are still in the hospital (premature) and we're praying for their development-Raquel and Naquel. They received baby blankets and a changing table that had been donated.
We're still praying for Jackie and Amanda, for Jackie to walk in righteousness and lead by godly example. And for Amanda-salvation and Truth (deliverance.)
These people are all heavy on my heart. There's frequent shootings on Pine Street, crack addiction, drug deals, and sexually immorality, but I hear the Spirit saying that G-d will make a way. Thank you Lord.
In Christ,
Raven Donna
P.S. God bless the helpers and those who donated. We are truly grateful, especially for our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.
