    Thumbs up Good, no GREAT news!!

    My 16 year old DS and I were IMing on Facebook tonight, and he told me of his decision tonight to accept Christ and be baptized!! Wow! He's a basically good kid, but never too serious about life, carefree I guess is how I would describe him.

    Anyway, those of you who know the Lord will understand my joy! This makes all four children have made a public decision for Christ. I am truly blessed.

    That is wonderful! My DD 18 still hasn't done this----I am trying not to worry and to put it in the Lord's hands.

    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
