Annie RobinsonBorn Again: The fourth
week in July
|
I was about twelve years old and I hadn't thought about being lost. My mother had died a few years before and my Grandmother Flowers lived with us. I can almost see the spot where we were standing when she asked me if I was lost, if I would go to heaven should I die. I don't remember what I told her, but I knew from that moment on that I was lost. The revival started at Mount Comfort that week. Brother T. M. Boyd was the pastor and it seemed like every word he preached was to me. I tried to hide behind a large woman, but he was still talking to me. I went on a few more days, but the burden got so heavy I couldn't stand it any longer. I made my way to the altar and I prayed and begged the Lord to save me. He did and that burden was gone. I couldn't wait for the next day to join the church and be baptized. Brother T. M. Boyd baptized me in a little creek not far from the church at the close of the revival.
"Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotton of him." [I John 5:1]
