Amencorner

Billy Graham and George Beverly Shae.

Hello, I have been waking early in the mornings lately, so I have been using the time to pray. I have had a Twitter account for quite a while now under the name "byAmencorner" and what happens when you log in, up comes recommendations who to follow, which is natural for Twitter. I don't want to follow anyone really so I thought who would I follow, the Apostle Paul recommended you keep an eye on him as to what he does and so on. I did put don't follow me, follow Jesus,what I am trying to say who would I like to talk to or emulate because of their life with Jesus as an example. So I looked at who was on offer, and the name came up for me was Billy Graham. I was born in Liverpool in 1948 and I guess it must have been in the 1950's, 60's that my Mum took me to a football stadium to see Billy Graham and George Beverly Shae. Mum had already been attending Church for a while, as my Brother and I had been going to Sunday School, my Mum had changed, we could no longer watch TV on a Sunday. Going back to the stadium,we had gone as a Church, it was a nervous time for me,the question was, would you give your heart to the Lord Jesus. The stumbling block for me was going out to the front and declaring you'd give your heart to Jesus. Hundreds would flock out to the front as the call to come out and show your commitment to Jesus, and then a Councillor would talk to you, and show you what do, and pray for Jesus to come into ones heart.That's my memory of Billy Graham,at home we would listen to the wonderful voice of George Beverly Shae singing, so these are my thoughts to-day.
