Ms. Lindsey
My husband and I spent 45 mins in the home of Ms. Wally Lindsey, sharing with her the precious Word of God. I'm sharing this with you in hopes it will encourage you to pray for Ms. Wally in a specific way, she has quite a story. She is the sweetest little lady. A little history...a couple of months ago she came into our morning service. A very sweet lady of whom I never would've guessed was about to turn 70! On a follow up visit we heard her amazing story, over 40 years ago she was in a church, a single mom raising 2 boys barely making it. She says she knew she was supposed to tithe but she didn't fell right about it when she was having to borrow money from her parents to buy food. One day the Pastor got up and said they were going to make public all the names of those who were not tithing, he began naming names...she said she was so humiliated, her sons too. None of them have been back in church since, until she came a couple months ago. Then she began telling of an experience she had recently had, she had had surgery and while on the table they lost her, she said you know you hear stories of people seeing "bright" lights and everything being so peaceful, she said that wasn't the case for her, everything was dark and scary. She knew she would have gone to hell had they not brought her back. She said she knew it was a warning she needed to get right with God. What that means to her, well I'm not sure. But she has been pretty faithful on Sunday mornings, she has agreed to the Basic Bible Truths study and we completed lesson one tonight. She was very open. Please pray that she will allow the Lord to open her eyes and her heart to the truth of salvation. I really believe she needs to be saved, but the world and the devil have had 70 yrs to blind her mind to "true" salvation! But greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world!!! I'll keep you posted!
