Patricia's Story
Life
Since graduating from high school in spring of 70, I have come to know Christ as my personal Savior after attending numerous Bible Studies and learning the plan of Salvation in which Christ offers to all who will receive him as Lord and Savior into one's life and heart for forgiveness of sin and eternal salvation.
This took place September of 73 when I, realizing my need to be saved, received Christ as Lord and Savior into my heart in a special church service at Gardendale Baptist Church here in Corpus Christi.
Since then Christ has come to personally mean SO VERY MUCH TO ME. Each day is a new day with him as I realize that all of my emptiness, lonliness, bitterness, etc. has become a thing of the past and Christ continues to mean more and more to me each and everyday of my life. As I read and quote his word each day, he continues to show me the abundant life in which he has for me and all who will turn to him for personal salvation.
My favorite Bible verses are Romans 3:23-25, 6:23, which are some good Salvation scriptures to start with and then the entire book of Romans. This entire chapter is a great chapter of The Bible for explaining the Salvation in which Christ died at The Cross to redeem for all of...Expand for more
us.
After that, my other favorite part of The Bible is Psalm 121. The first and last verse are great verses to quote when in difficult and dangerous situations. For that matter, the entire Psalm is a great Psalm to memorize and quote daily and when faced with trying and dangerous situations.
A short time after my experience with Christ, I was offered Federal Employment which I have held continuously since then and continue to hold today.
In a few years I will be able to retire and then let Christ show me his calling for the rest of my life.
When I pass from this life and go to be with The Lord, I hope and pray that Christ will have shown my generation, family, friends, etc. how that Christ can and will change a messed up, broken up, and strung out life such as mine when one dares give Christ a chance with one's life such as I have done.
