Southwest Believer's Convention with Dad! 2009



Dad and I had a wonderfully, awesome week together in Fort Worth, TX. We met at the hotel on Saturday and did a little shopping and went to Uno's to eat supper before settling in.


Sunday we attended Eagle Mountain International Church. It was a Spirit-filled service with healing laughter during the best communion we've ever taken. Pastor George spoke on prosperity and to expect our daily load of benefits according to Ps. 103.



Did you know Dad was a social butterfly? He talked to everyone! Had THE smile and the joy of the Lord just pouring out of him. We had terribly hard seats for the first five days and then finally found these cushy blue ones and could see everything. The worship during the week took us to a new level of corporate worship rarely experienced in church. The Word was revealed in a beautiful way and a lot of times it was humorous. God is such a joyfilled Father and loves to laugh. In fact, on Sunday He said He was laughing at His enemies. Glad I'm not one of them!
We had very little time for recreation but we did get to the Water Gardens, which were just across the street from the hotel and to see KCM's property. We also went to the Stockyards for dinner a couple nights. The Stockyards had rodeos and cowboy type things and buildings.
By the end of the week we were very tired but refreshed. Our spirits were full of the Word and worship. Our other ends were numb from all the sitting. Our flesh was fighting but we won! And we are both so glad we went. Next year we hope that more of the family will attend with us.

Sue

Did you hear that Sue has moved to Louisiana? Yup, Joe got a better job with a bigger company. They have moved into their new apartment which is close to an Assembly of God church. Deridder is close to Houston so she has got to be hot!

I miss you already Sue.

What's Your Favorite Book?

Our next journal question is: What's Your Favorite Book? You know what Mom's was. Of course, the Bible.

That would be mine too. I have read so many fiction books, mystery books, Christian fiction, romance books that picking one would be too hard. So the next question is: Who's your favorite author? Mom's was God.

I think mine would be the one I'm currently reading....whoever that is at the moment. I have read some that I don't like and give those books away. The rest I keep like Frank Peretti, Byran Davis, Lori Wick. Who's yours?
