Rebecca

Testimony, Rebecca Stewart, 2010

I was saved as a child, at the age of three. My mother led me to Christ after I questioned her about heaven and Jesus. At the age of twelve, I went through a particularly difficult year in school and started to ask questions again. I questioned my salvation because I was so young, I didn’t remember my decision. My parents talked with me and I rededicated my life to Christ. Soon after, I decided to be baptized. I base my assurance on the fact that God is the one true God and He has the power to save me. His Word is true and it tells of God's love for me and Jesus' birth, death and resurrection. His blood has covered my sin.

Prayer is one thing that I have made a big part of my life. A friend’s example influenced me to pray more. With my commitment to be more faithful in prayer, I have found I also learn more about prayer. My spiritual walk with God has become real and personal. Learning this has convicted me of how much closer I could walk with God if I were more faithful in reading my bible. Since I was a child, I have always had trouble sitting myself down to read anything. My new goal is to daily set aside quiet time to read my bible.

My husband Jack and I were greatly influenced by a mission trip we took six months after we were married. That was such a growing experience for us and we have been involved in missions ever since then. We both realize that bringing souls to Christ is the only profession that is really important, and all other distractions are worth nothing. Doing for others and for God is what truly makes us both happy. We are learning together as we seek God's will for our lives and trust Him as He leads us into service for Him.
