HE HEARD MY CRY
Isaiah 59:1-2 “Behold, the
Lord’s hand is not shortened,
that it cannot save; neither His
ear heavy, that it cannot hear.”
Beloved, think what a friend,
one who will keep you unto the
end. He heard my prayers and
cries unto Him. As a needy child
I bowed my head to talk to one
who I had never seen with natu
ral eyes. I prayer six years for
|my sinful old dad, who would
;not go to church. It seemed at
times my prayers were against
an iron wall. But I trusted a
strong hand and kept praying!
countless prayers. One day at
noon old dad cried out, “God be
merciful to me, a sinner.”
Yes, what a revival we had in
the old living room, as Dad sur
rendered to the God that I was
serving. A six-year-old burden
was lifted. My faith in God was
established more safe and
strong.
One night while the storm
winds were shaking the house, it j
seemed that the house could
hardly stand much longer. I fell
by my bed to my God and the
storms ceased. I felt so grand to
feel the hand of God from
Heaven overshadowing the
house He heard my cries. I shall
never forget Him. He healed my
body two times, of two different
things, and they were serious to
me, but simple to Him.
He is so wonderful. I only hope
others will learn to trust Him. If
I should die today, life has been |
