Yesterday's visit

The visit with Tanya yesterday went really well. When she came in and saw Mark and I together, she burst out with excitement, clapping her hands and ran to hug us, it seemed to really make her day.
Tanya still has not accepted Christ as her Saviour but she has accepted the fact that Christ is real. She's really thinking all this through and will not make a harsh decision, she said she wants to make the decision for her and only for her. I am so proud of her. I wish everyone that accepted Christ would sit back and weigh that decision, realizing the price one has to pay in proclaiming Christ as Lord. Is she saved? NO....is she being saved? YES.
She asked me if I would baptize her when that decision was made which brought tears to my eyes, although I'm not sure if the prison officials will allow me to do that. WOW, what an honor that would be.
Mark, Tanya and I visited for the entire two hours, which including all of holding hands and praying together. We discuss some very personal things which I do no have the liberty to share here.
I am asking everyone to commit to praying for Tanya everyday at 3:00 pm. pray is what will lead her across the line into the arms of Christ. please intercede for her, please stand in the gap for her.
I heard someone say a couple of weeks ago, that when God continues to put someone on your heart to pray for, He intends to answer that prayer. Well, Tanya has been on our hearts for over a year now and I know He intends to answer our prayer that she will get saved. It must be done on Gods timing and not our own.
To God be the glory.
