As we were saying our goodbyes after one of our visits this past week, Mom gave us a “charge”. It was one of those moments when you wished you had been videoing – I hated that I missed it. In an effort to record it, I finally convinced Mom to say it again. The only problem was, she forgot what she said. ?<\/p>\n
She still got the main idea, though, and I wanted to share it here. Mom was saved at 27 years of age and now – over 67 years later – she’s still striving to live for the Lord while encouraging others to do so as well. I don’t know about you but when I witness the JOY and determination of older saints of God, it inspires me as well as reaffirms that living the Christian life really is worth it all!!<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/www.inthineheart.com\/staging\/8143\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/img_2232.mov<\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As we were saying our goodbyes after one of our visits this past week, Mom gave us a “charge”.
