Some of you have joined us in prayer for the salvation of Tom and Cindy, a couple who are neighbors with our church family, the McIntoshes. Tom was put in hospice last week and may not make it for any more than a few more days.
Don stopped by on Tuesday night. Tom can't talk much but Don reviewed the gospel with him and asked him if he would nod his head if he wanted to put his trust in Jesus. Don thought he saw a slight nod. So Don took his hand and said that Tom should squeeze his hand if he wanted to pray to turn his life over to the Lord - Don felt a slight squeeze. Don told Tom to pray along with him as he prayed the prayer of commitment. He then asked Tom if he had prayed the prayer with him. At that point, Don felt a good squeeze! Don has felt the Lord witnessing in his heart that the Lord did a work in Tom at that time. We praise the Lord greatly for this!! It has been such a burden on our hearts.
Cindy wanted Tom baptized so Don took a little water and did that as well.
Don then mentioned to Cindy that this would be a good time for her to put her trust in the Lord as well. She responded in such a way that she didn't feel the need for any more commitment than she already had so we will continue to pray for her.
