Psalm 16:11 “ . . .in thy p resence is fulness of joy .. I do thank the Lord for saving me when I was a child; for His protecting hand upon me, and His leading in my life. I thank Him for the privilege of attending F.G.B.I. It was here I learned of the Grace of God and of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit—Truths which have brought “fullness of joy” to my life. My utmost desire in life is to so live that others may know that I love Christ. Know tnai i rove nrisr. Psalm 89:1 “I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for¬ ever; with my mouth I will make known thy faithfulness to all generations.” Truly the Lord has been merciful to me; He has done so much throughout my life. Although we fail the Lord many times He will never fail us. When I think of all the Lord has done for me, how can I give less than all to Him? I feel God’s hand upon my life and pray that He will enable me to faithfully fill my place in the harvest field. Mark 11:24 “What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them and ye shall have them.” How many times has this been proven true in my life! Truly, “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise.” II Peter 3:9. He gives us more than we deserve or can ask for. What a wonderful Lord we serve! As an Overcomer, I want to serve the Lord the best way I can. In order to be an Overcomer, we must overcome. “Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” I John 5:5. . T I truly thank the Lord for His Word I have always found that God’s Word is quick and powerful, and it does pierce to the very heart of man. I want to be in the place where the Lord can use me to bring glory to His name. The same Spirit that drove Jesus into the wilderness is the One I want to drive me into His service to do mighty exploits for Him. dvdjMtns I am thankful for the reality of Jesus Christ in my life. I have found David to be true when he said in Psalm 145:3 “his greatness is unsearchable.” I count it as a privilege to be able to study God’s Word for it is “quick, powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword” Hebrews 4:12. His Word is the only thing that will convince and convict sinful men. Because of this, it is my desire to commit my life completely unto Christ. In Psalm 37:5 we read, “Commit thy way unto the Lord, trust also in him, and he shall bring it to pass.” Considering the tragic conditions in the world today, I thank God for the thrilling answer He has provided in the Person of Jesus Christ. As I view the vast harvest field of human souls I realize the enormity of the job set before me. My desire and prayer is that I might unreserv¬ edly yield my body in reckless abandon to this great cause—the cause of Christ. Luke 9:24 “For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.” ' THY WILL BE DONE ' IS THE KEYNOTE TO WHICH EVERY LIFE SHOULD BE TUNED.
