How did I come to know Jesus? Going back in time when I was a little girl about 6 years old I remember the Sabbath school teacher telling the kids the story of a woman who lost a valuable coin. This woman looked and looked and gave up searching for the lost coin. That night before she went to bed, she prayed about that lost coin to Jesus and when she finished her prayer she looked at the corner nightstand, and there was the shiny lost coin! She was so happy to find it but even happier for an answered prayer.
I believed the story and believed in prayer. That special sabbath school teacher also showed a picture of Jesus walking on earth and performing miracles. I don't remember the miracles, all I remember was seeing Jesus on the felt board and believing with my whole heart.During my childhood years I remember performing small acts of kindness. I loved to go outside on a sunny day and sing about God's creation. I use to love going to the candy store and buying a whole bag of candy and sharing them with all the neighborhood kids!When I was about 10 years of age. I remember going to church with my mother and opening up my bible that I received as a gift from my sabbath school class. In that bible it had pictures of God's creation. I use to love looking at that picture and the picture of Adam and Eve.I was active in church, although I wasn't very good at anything. I knew how to play the violin, but not very well. I knew how to play the piano, but not like a professional. I knew how to sing, but just a rookie. I tried to memorize a bible verse, but when the time came to speak, I forgot. I would always say to myself I would read the bible from cover to cover and never get past Genesis.
