Carolyn's Testimony
The song that you
are listening to I would like to dedicate to my Brother-in-Law
~*~Boyd~*~ It was one of the songs his group The Desertaire's sang during our singing
years. I Love you a lot Boyd ~~ God Bless you ~~
I am sorry to
say that Boyd passed away two days after this page was published, but
he did see it from his new home in Heaven
This is one of my most important pages of all to me as I get to
tell my story, about what God has done in my life. I was only a
little over 10 yrs old when I gave my heart to Jesus. This was
'48' yrs ago. I was raised in a Christian home. We had very down to
earth, but very Godly Parents. And I went to Sunday School, Morning
Worship, Training Union, Sunday Night, and Wednesday Night Prayer
Meeting all of my life. There was not anything that I had done, in
my life to make me feel that I was a sinner. But I know that we are all
born sinners, and we all have to ask Jesus into our lives. The
only we can have Eternal Life, with Him in Heaven . We were living
in Selma, California, and coming to Fresno ,California to attend Church. I
will always remember our Pastor Bro. Talley. What a wonderful and very
loving man of God He had been Preaching on Salvation for so
long. And I knew that I did want to go to Heaven when I died.
But I did thought that the time for me to die, would be many many
years from that time. I am so happy that I did give my life, to
Jesus at that time. As I look back at all of the good years, that I
have had with Him in my life. You never know when your time is
up. But it is better not to wait, as age has nothing to do with
dying. I have been attending church most of my life. But I have been
out some too. I will say that the best and most, fun times in my
life have been in Church. I was baptized shortly after I was saved.
As that is usually how we Baptist do things. Only because we try
to have several to be baptized at once. This way they can get the
water warm. This was my big day, that I do remember so well. My
Brother Arliss and I were brought, into the water at the same time.
I will never forget the feeling of that day. I also will not ever
forget the day, I went forward to meet Bro. Talley at the alter. I
felt like a huge burden, had lifted from me. That is the best feeling
that you can have. Then many years of traveling and singing. Also
teaching little children, about Jesus too. I have got away from Him,
at times in my life. But I have to say in all honesty. If you have
been truly saved, and you do get away from God, You are a real
miserable person. That is good because, that is the Holy Spirit
speaking to you. I pray that I will never have that feeling leave me
again. As I get older I feel the need, for the Lord in my Life,
more than ever before. Like the song goes ' He Is All I Need,
Jesus Is All I Need '. He will always be here for us. When we
need Him the most, He is here all the time and, He will never
leave us nor forsake us. I do not have the kind of testimony, that
is so different that I can say, I accepted Jesus in my life, in a unusual time. Or in a different kind of way. I know that I am so
unworthy of His awesome love for me. I have not always stayed,
close to Him every minute. But even when I did get away, He
was constantly on my mind. I thank you Lord ! for never leaving me
or never letting me go, so far that I didn't want to come back to
you. I only hope that I can be a witness to others through this
page. And they will want to give their life to Him also. A great
time that I will always remember is the day that my husband, along
with 2 other men at church were all ordained as Deacons. That was
one of the best days of my life. I pray that we can still be as God
wanted us to be A Light That Shines For Him ! The many years we
spent singing for the Lord. I will be telling about that on another
page. But I do ask that as you read this you will, ask the Lord to
come into your heart. And save you too as we all want to go to
Heaven . And be together with many loved ones. But most of all to be
with our wonderful Lord! You can ask Jesus into your heart right
now, and right from where you are. He hears everyone of us. He
knows your needs, and He knows your hurts. That is all He ask of
us. Is to call on Him, give our life to Him. I will be praying for
each of you. If anyone out there reads this and you, needs Prayer
for Salvation. please e-mail me in the e-mail box right here on
this page I will send you the simple scriptures that God says in
His Word. ' God Bless ' I want to meet you in Heaven ! We all still
make mistakes everyday. I do ask that you will pray for me also. We
are not perfect even as Christians. Just forgiven!
When I wrote My Testimony I never thought about
receiving any awards about how I accepted Jesus into my Heart. This
is so awesome to have this kind of awards, to be given to me. But
this is the kind of God that I Love so much. and what He can do in
our lives!
