While
we were all born ordinary into this world under original sin, having
been born again and dedicated to the Lord is quite a different thing.
From the time my children were born I held them up in prayer as my
babies dedicated to the Lord praying and believing that they and my
entire household would be set aside by God in the promises of his
word: "Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, along
with everyone in your household."
Notwithstanding that my children who attended church, Sunday school,
Christian school and were baptized, know that together we have shared
a special spiritual bond that cannot be broken. While it goes without
saying that they will still need to decide as adults to continue and
dedicate their lives to Jesus Christ, nevertheless God is always
faithful in keeping his promises and will continue to protect and
draw my entire household toward salvation which started with myself
and continued with my late wife Carol. And although our family has
had its share of sorrow, trials and tribulations and will continue to
do so from time to time, it is plainly evident to anyone that Jesus
Christ continues to pour out his promise of grace and blessings upon
my entire household. So there is no doubt in my mind that God will
continue to faithfully do so until I see my children lift up their
eyes and hands in honor and praise to Jesus Christ, even to the next
generation, I believe this. In the mean time I continue to pray here
on earth while my wife Carol prays in heaven, for our children and
grandchildren, I stand on the promises of God. In that no matter
what this life brings in the way of blessings, fire, or rain, “Our
House” will not be shaken. "So let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in Him! He alone is the rock of my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken or moved! (Ps 62:5)
Then
St Paul's jailer asked “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” They
replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, along
with everyone in your household.” “Understand, therefore, that
the LORD your God is indeed God. He is the faithful God who keeps
his covenant for a thousand generations and lavishes his unfailing
love on those who love him and obey his commands.”
