I want to affirm
some things tonight.
I affirm that someday
I'm going to have that one million hits
on AC before I step off this planet,
and that my little book is going to sell,
and I am going to reach people
far and wide with my testimony
for the Lord Jesus Christ.
I also believe
that you will provide for me along the way.
There will be food on my table
and gas in my car
to take me to my volunteer jobs
and church.
And I will be able to pay all my bills,
and I will owe no man anything
when I appear
before your judgement seat.
I am a Christian;
I'm working to make a difference
for the kingdom of God.
You are using me,
and I will have fruit
to present before you on Judgement Day.
And I am going to heaven
because your blood
is powerful enough to get me there.
You are my Lord and my God,
and my soul, my life, and my future
are in your capable hands.
Thank you very much.
Shirley.
