There are some moments in life that seem to make a lasting impression on our minds and hearts.

The Lord has brought 2 precious girls into my life...Rose and Miranda.  I met their family through the ESL ministry at GCC and the ESL Temple outreach.  Through various circumstances orchestrated by the Lord, the girls have started coming to Discovery Club (Children's evening service).  As if that alone wouldn't be the most outstanding, gracious, kind act of God upon little ones who have grown up in idolatry, tonight I witnessed the oldest one, Rose, comprehend that the only source of Truth is the Bible, the ONLY means of Salvation is by faith in Christ's death and resurrection and that Jesus loves her enough to bring her to the Church to hear the Truth.  I have  no idea if this is genuine salvation, but I am humbled by God's grace to help her to grasp what is true and His great love for her after only 4 weeks at church.  Please PLEASE pray for these girls and their family.  Pray that they would be saved from idolatrous worship and brought into the kingdom of LIGHT--to the One that sees and hears prayers--to the One and ONLY who deserves our praise!

Miranda, Rose and their Discovery Small group led by Viktoria.

Sorry for the bad quality, it was taken with my cell phone.

Psalm 62

   1^(A)My soul waits in silence for God only;
         From Him ^(B)is my salvation.
    2He only is my ^(C)rock and my salvation,
         My ^(D)stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken. 
    

   5My soul, ^(H)wait in silence for God only,
         For my hope is from Him.
    6He only is ^(I)my rock and my salvation,
         My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
    7On God my ^(J)salvation and my glory rest;
         The rock of my strength, my ^(K)refuge is in God.
    8^(L)Trust in Him at all times, O people;
         ^(M)Pour out your heart before Him;
         God is a refuge for us. Selah. 
    

    11^[a]Once God has ^(U)spoken;
         ^[b]Twice I have heard this:
         That ^(V)power belongs to God;
    12And lovingkindness ^(W)is Yours, O Lord,
         For You ^(X)recompense a man according to his work.

Today was hard, but God is good.  He is my ROCK.  I will not be shaken.
