I'm a native Tulsan, living in Texas for lo, these 26 years. Testimonies about how people accepted Jesus as their saviour are precious. Yours brought back so many memories to me. Even though I'm about 5 years older than you, I had a dress similar to the one with the daisies that you described, except mine didn't have a bolero. My mother made mine for my 8th grade graduation.<BR/><BR/>We were a 3 services a week family (except my dad), but Sunday nights were special to me. Training Union was more enjoyable to me than Sunday School, we had missionary stories and films, played Bible games and it was less formal. There were a lot fewer people attending the Sunday night worship service so it was less formal, also. At least once a month, we'd have spontaneous testimonies and song requests. Even years before the 'praise and worship' style came in, we sang chorus's. It was memorable.<BR/><BR/>I asked Jesus into my heart one Sunday morning when a visiting preacher named Hyman Appleman gave the message, and I was baptized that night.<BR/><BR/>At Calvary is one of my favorites, too. I wish you could hear my husband play it on the piano, Southern Gospel Style.<BR/><BR/>God Bless You.<BR/><BR/>Carla<BR/>P.S.

Thank you, for Jeremy...Laurie, welcome to my blog. Thank you, for Jeremy's name. I did pray for him today as well as your family. He and all of you, and (congratulations) his wife to be.<BR/>My son~in~law's name is Marty. He is in the Army. On January 28, 2008, I posted <I>Good to be Back!</I> about he, my daughter and their family. I would love for you to take a peek. I am glad you liked my <I>Then Sings My Soul Saturday</I> song and post.<BR/><BR/>Amy, thanks for the opportunity to share the songs that mean something to us. Though I like some praise and worship choruses, you will find that I have such a special place in my heart for the hymns of our faith. You are so right, the words are so stirring and edifying. I always liked them as a kid, they just seemed to get boring at times. Now, I miss them because we have gone praise and worship chorus crazy. Guess that is why we have CD's. :~)<BR/><BR/>Peggy, thanks for the posting tip on Amy. I am glad you liked the hymn and the testimony behind it.<BR/><BR/>Linda, you are welcome. It is a classic and a great one... I agree. I hear you are a hymn girl too. I will be checking in on you regularly.<BR/><BR/>Pam, you are so welcome. Yeah, I'm not a dress or style diva, guess my Tom~Boy was to be a constant in my life. I used to envy tall women that waltzed through a room instead of bounce as I do, but God made me short and sassy and I am good with that now. I still wear yellow. :~)<BR/><BR/>Lunch... I'd love to. I'm not working yet and you work full days, and you know the area, you choose the time and place. Email me and I'll be there.Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12764866689330676750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067409052402303144.post-70216339715460407472008-07-26T20:14:00.000-05:002008-07-26T20:14:00.000-05:00What a beautiful beautiful story.

Hymns cannot fail!<BR/>You are a GREAT addition to TSMSS!<BR/>[Hint:Amy usually posts on Fri. night or schedule for 12AM]<BR/><BR/>You definitely found a hymn that leads us all to Calvary. A good point to begin with your testimony!<BR/><BR/>Mocha with Linda, to name one of many, usually shares background to <BR/>GREAT Hymns! I enjoy hers each week and learn something new about hymns that are familiar but I know little of their composers or why and she shares this each week!<BR/><BR/>I go for more contemporary Christian: Hillsong for today!<BR/><BR/>Thank you so much for personalizing yur choice and sharing!

We take so much for granted when we have been in church for so long. Sometimes now when I hear those familiar songs I have sung all my life and really concentrate on the words, it brings me to tears every time. This song is one of them. What incredible words. Thank you for sharing. Glad you joined us and posted us on your sidebar.

WOW. I am so glad you found your way over to my page and I appreciate your prayers for my son so much. His name is Jeremy and he is in the Air Force. What is your son in laws first name and his branch? I will add him to the military prayer list I have on my prayer blog. We are having a wonderful time with our son before he ships out - in fact he has decided to marry his longtime girlfriend before he leaves and that is definetly taking my mind off of him going overseas for now. God is so good and I know that His hand is upon my son as well as your son in law. Thank you for your prayers. I see you joined us in Then Sings My Soul Saturday...I enjoy to participate in that as well and I wanted to say I loved the song you wrote about...it brought back many memories of us singing that in church when I was younger. -hope to talk with you more, LaurieLAURIEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14486313421145067150noreply@blogger.com
