Testimony

I rode with my husband for three years in a truck (he was a cross-country trucker). About a year before I stopped, I was looking up at the night sky and asked the Lord to send someone to teach me about Him. I already loved Him, but wanted to know Him. In 1990 we came off the road and lived in a little motel suite in Beaumont, Texas. I was adamant that religion didn’t need to be on radio or television; I was saved, but didn’t know it at the time. I would watch a Sunday morning program and then rush to turn the TV off before the “religious stuff” came on.
One day in 1991, I wasn’t fast enough and Kenneth Copeland came on. I stood and listened. I can remember to this day that he was teaching on Ephesians 4. It was the most peaceful hour I’d had in my life up to that point. I sat down and asked the Lord, “Is this who You want to teach me?” Shortly after that, a neighbor invited me to church. It was like asking someone who was dehydrated if they wanted a glass of water.
Eighteen years later I’m still at that church, and our pastor is teaching THE BLESSING on Wednesday nights. I’m so excited about THE BLESSING book I can’t put it down and I’m seeing things differently. It confirms some things I’ve heard, and is opening up things I thought I knew. I have respected Kenneth ever since that day in 1991 because the Lord led me to him to be my teacher.
