I cannot tell you how much I owe to the prayers of my godly mother. I believe that it was in answer to her prayers that I came to know Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour while on a troop ship in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, serving in the United States army. She knew that I was headed to the other side of the world and didn’t have a personal relationship with Christ and she was praying for me to be saved. After she died I was looking through her prayer journal and saw the names of many people she had been praying for to be saved and have since made decisions for Him. (Lou Nicholes - Missionary/Author).
