Pastor John,<\/span><\/p>\n Concerning a recent comment you made: “Midnight does not just turn into noon. It never has. It brightens into dawn, and in turn lightens into noon.”<\/span><\/p>\n Oh\u200b,\u200b how safe this makes me feel !\u200b\u200b \u200bIt is so true.<\/span><\/p>\n My life was so dark, so black. \u200b \u200bThere were times I begged Jesus for death. \u200b \u200b How sweet God is to me.\u200b \u200b He granted that prayer.\u200b \u200b He put that dark life to death. \u200b \u200bEach day has gotten brighter.\u200b \u200b It has gotten sweeter. \u200b \u200bAs my midnight turned to dawn, I began to see. \u200b \u200bA little at first , and more and more as Jesus gently brightens my life, holding my hand, and leading me to him. \u200b \u200bEvery day Jesus shows me a little more. That dark life is so far away from me, it feels dead.<\/span><\/p>\n I am so thankful.<\/span><\/p>\n I have listened to the ” book of Acts” \u200bteaching CD, over and over today. \u200b \u200bDrinking in every word. \u200b \u200bWhat you said about ” midnight not just turning to noon” is so true. I often worry about being on track….being where Jesus wants me to be. \u200b \u200bThat quote brings me peace.\u200b \u200b I feel the truth in it.\u200b \u200b I can just see Jesus coming to rescue me. Walking hand \u200b-\u200band\u200b-\u200bhand into the light.<\/span><\/p>\n Whew! I wish I could attach these feelings, and email them to you. \u200b \u200b What you said went straight into my heart.<\/span><\/p>\n Beth<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Pastor John, Concerning a recent comment you made: “Midnight does not just turn into noon.
