It was that invitation that was a defining moment in Lyn’s
life, but it was also a defining moment in my life and we hadn’t even met yet.
If our friend had never given that invitation, Lyn wouldn’t
have decided to have a relationship with God and I would never have given him a
second thought. Because she cared, she
invited. Because she took an opportunity and invited, I have been blessed
beyond what I could have ever have prayed for as a young girl. Words cannot express the depth of gratitude I
have.
Because she invited Lyn to a Bible study, I am married to a
man who loves me, who loves to show me in oh so many ways how precious I am to
him. Because she invited, I have four
beautiful daughters that we are so proud of, that bring me unimaginable joy,
four sons in law that love, respect and protect me like I am their very own
Mom, and five precious, precious grandchildren who think I am the best thing
since sugar was discovered. I get to
hear their sweet voices calling me Grammy.
I get slobbery wet kisses and happy giggles because of way too much
silliness.
I am challenged by the blessings I received because someone
cared enough to invite Lyn to have an opportunity to believe in God. Would you
join me and invite those who surround your life to have that same opportunity,
after all you never know how that invitation is going to change their life and
the lives of the people who surround them.
