About two or three weeks ago I got home from Winter Camp, as a youth counselor, and opened my email to find one of the happiest most fulfilling emails I have read. It was from my Sister Heidi. You see it’s been a little over a year ago that I was able to lead her to Jesus Christ. She is the first one I was able to lead to Christ, I am so glad it worked out that way. Awesome feeling!

When I opened my email, it was later on that night, I was in the living room with Mom and Dad. All I could do was break down and cry! They asked me what was wrong and I sent them the link. They cried too. You see Heidi doesn’t really talk a whole lot and she really doesn’t like to write a whole lot either. But, I was so happy to see that she would take the time to thank me for the work of Christ in her life. It was a big deal to her. He has made such a big difference in Heidi’s life! I can see the changes. I am so happy that God would open her heart to Himself. Here is the ecard she sent me. Click here to look at it, it’s beautiful. I walked into her bedroom that night and she was asleep. I woke her up and told her through many tears how sweet the letter was and how thankful I was to get it from her. She was sweet and said in her own quiet way how thankful she was. I can’t tell you how happy it is to serve the Lord! I can’t tell you what He can and will do through you when you yield your life to His work. I never would have guessed and yet at the same time it’s nothing about what I did or how I did it! Amazing…

The other night all of us girls took another girl here in the church out to coffee. We were talking with her about Jesus and salvation. I asked Heidi if she would tell what God did in her life. She boldly, passionately, in her quiet way through tears told her story of her salvation. That made me very happy. I know it made God happy. He is good.

Thank you to my Mother for her photography. We love you Mom. www.loispierpont.com
