Frances Van Horn's Testimony

As I start to write, I am not sure what I want to say. I am thinking—what is it about my relationship with Christ that makes it all worthwhile for me on a daily basis? I do not have a testimony of a dysfunctional childhood, abuse or addictions. In fact, it is just the opposite, I have been truly blessed. God continues to bless me each day—in spite of my many shortcomings!

Of course, there have still been times of great stress and/or trouble. However, I have always felt the comforting presence of my God. I think that is what I would like to convey as much as anything—no matter what comes, my God is able to carry me through it.

Our time here on Earth is very short when compared to eternity. I am so thankful for this great country we live in. However, by accepting the gift of salvation through Christ’s death and resurrection, my permanent citizenship has been moved to Heaven. Hallelujah!!

It easy to become complacent about what God has done. My prayer is that I become excited about the plans He has for me today, tomorrow and forever.

“THIS IS THE DAY THE LORD HAS MADE. I WILL REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT.” Psalm 118:24
