Today was a hard and awesome day. It culminated in me trying to show my Mom that she didn't seem to have been saved through Jesus Christ. We had some very emotional talks and discussion. She went off for a walk on her own and took a long time. We talked some more. There's a lot to the whole story, but the point is I think God used me to open up my mother's heart to Him so that she might choose to trust in Jesus to give her eternal life. Praise God! I'll update this about what went on in her heart. She ended up only wanting to be left alone, so I think maybe God got through to her through me. Praise God about the opening of her heart though!

Hi AlPal...do not be discouraged...I am in the same boat. Just pray, and the Holy Spirit sounds like he is already watering the seed you have planted....God bless you, pm anytime, if you need to talk !

Oh wow, can I relate to you....ive had many issues with my mom.. i dont know if she is really "born-again" even tho shes been in church all her life.:idunno..i know beyond a doubt GOD has used me to communicate to her thru me....She says, of course, that I talk about the Rapture too much....I feel ive done about all I can do.. except of course pray for her...I gueess we plant the seeds of truth and then step aside and see JESUS work!!!
( tough for me to do, I admit):nod
