Its hard to see the keys as im typing this. Ill admit to the world that im crying right now. Ive never been so happy in my life. Today prayer was answered, today my Lord showed his grace.

My grandfather, the strong willed old man determined to live his own life gave it all up to the Lord. He surrendered his life to the Lord far beyond when most people are saved. I have prayed for this for 9 years... everynight, asking and pleading for his heart to soften to the words of the Lord.

All of that is amazing because salvation at his age is rare but more than that...This is a testament to the power of prayer. Last night in youth we talked one on one with each other and prayed for one anothers needed and for the souls of those we knew who were lost. Something last night compelled me to ask for my partner to pray for my grandfather. As i prayed, i felt a comfort, some weight had been lifted some burden was taken away. Within 12 hours, my grandpa had given his life up to God.

After 9 years, the spirit moved in him, and now after all that time...it is easy to say that it has all been worth it. I hope this will encourage and bolster the hearts of the Lord's servants, I hope this inspires a new hope when you pray for the lost amoung us.

Let each of us remember those we love in prayer in assurance that we will be heard.

there is no way to end a blog like this other than by saying Amen
