and sometimes I was trying to do the right things re: Him. When I was 18 and 19 in Seattle, I was filled with a lot of sinful things and, because I was so sinful, I was planning to die. The Lord broke into my heart and made me NOT become a sinful dead girl. SO, April 15, 1966, when I was in Tacoma with my parents and sisters and friends, I was suddenly taken to a Baptist church by a friend in early April, and April 10th was the Easter time. I was at that church and I heard more. I hadn't officially come to the Lord, b/c of my sinful things I still felt like a bad person. On April 15th one of the main men at the church was willing to pick me up and take me to his home for dinner. His wife and 4 boys were there. I was a long distance from where I lived in Tacoma. Anyhow, after the eating time, the lady and the kids went into the living room to watch a movie, and the man told me a lot of the info re: that I should come to Jesus. After several minutes I decided that I would come to the Lord and then he took me to a home where there were several girls who were in their upper teens and young twenties. Since I was 20 years old and I officially came to the Lord, it was 51 years from now. I became 21 about 2-1/2 months later.
Now I'm 71 --- I'll be 72 in July. Always look excited re: that day of April 15, '66, I LOVE it MUCH!!! I don't look good and my body and brain issue is a challenge. I worship and glorify and focus on the Lord every day and every night. I can hardly wait to get to Heaven. He has healed and protected me many times even when I was a kid. Now I can't focus very well and I am so grateful re: how the Lord has protected and healed me and used me, many times and many years. I look forward to the Lord, and to Jesus, and to some of the angels that are with and in me.
