Thank you!! I am very happy now!!! There for a while I wasnt happy with the lifestyle that I was living.. I didnt know how I could live at home and try to live a plain lifestyle.. but with the help of the Lord.. And with the help of my mom.. I am the happiest person.. My mom sat me down about 2 months ago and told me that if God is calling you to live a plain life then I needed to do it no matter what others say.. And then I told her that I didnt feel "at home" in the church that I was attending.. I was always looked at like I was the "wierd" one.. And the funny thing was the only thing that was different was that I wore a Modest dress and a head Covering.. but the Lord had different things in mind.. He led me to the church that I have been going to for about a month now.. I am soo blessed by this church!! This past Sunday evening we had a Church Social and singing.. We sang hymns first and then had a devotion and then sang more hymns and then ate dinner.. I soo loved that!!! It reminded me of a time a dear family came to our house and we sang hymns too!!! It was such a good time!!  Hope you have a very blessed day!! Blessings, Elizabeth |

Praise the Lord! What a sweet and powerful Testimony! We will continue to lift you up in much prayer, we need prayer too, we all do. I'm glad you have found sweet christian fellowship. We're still looking. Our home fellowship with our family is good for now but oh how we desire God fearing brethren to fellowship with.

Thank you for all the prayers!! I will continue to pray for ya'll to be able to find some fellowship among other believers!!! It is very encouraging when you are among others that believe the same things as you.. You dont feel "left out" I have grown alot in my Christian faith since I have become a Christian back in 2008.. But I would not have if it wasnt for my dear Christian friends and my mom that have been there for me through everything that has gone on in my life!!  I have had some not so nice comments for following the Lord.. And alot of those comments are coming from the church that I was a member of.. They are saying that I "abandoned" them.. Which I didnt I just listened to what God was telling me and actualy doing it this time!! They knew that my family was plain for several years and yet they acted like this was the first time that they have heard it.. I was very encouraged by my Sunday School teacher when I told her.. She said to do whatever God is leading me and that she would be here for me when ever I want to talk or anything.. And that made me feel so much better.. And she goes to the church that I used to go to.. Please pray for me though as I am still hearing it.. Mostly coming through my 3 younger brothers and sister.. I know this is where God wants me and I am firm in that!! And I know that God will take care of us what ever the circumstances!! And so I am not ashamed to say that I am done with the "worldly" life and get back to where God wants me!! |

That's wonderful Elizabeth! I know it can be hard when family members pressure you, but I'm glad your standing firm, Who knows your godly Christian example can be used of God to work in their life as well as your own.
I am so glad you have the support of your dear mother, that means alot to a daughter.
Blessings on your day!

Elizabeth,
Praying steadfastness and encouragement as you continue to endeavor to follow the Lord. As Sister Darlene pointed out, your actions, your witness is setting an example for those who see you.
I too am glad that you have found genuine believer fellowship with sincere brothers and sisters. Like Sister Darlene, I am still longing for this myself; but I too have the fellowship of family; praising the Lord that my husband and my sons are also my brothers in Christ.
Psalm 84:11"For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly".
Continue to walk that upright walk sister.
