MY NEICE.

[powderman]

She called our cell while we were in ILL. Seems the docs have found a mass in her breast and suspect cancer. She's one of the 2 who renounced Jesus and became one of satans disciples. I felt that she called knowing we would pray for her, and of course we did. My wife just got off the phone with her after an hour or so. She DID ask for prayer, she said islam just aint doing it for her, surprise surprise. Point is, when things are serious she turned to the real God. She's  scared enough to start talking about buriel arrangements and asked us to help, which we will but it won't be necessary. Hope we can trust her again, lying is something they are taught to do in their koran. Just have to take it easy and see I reckon. I never stopped loving her, but just not sure where this is going. She even said she wants to go to church with us, we'll see if she does, I really hope she does. Prayers appreciated. POWDERMAN.

Everyone must come on their own accord.  It's a free choice.  The only thing you can do is love her like we were commanded. "Feed His Sheep"  Good luck brother!

That sounds like good news to me Charlie. Sometimes it takes something like this to bring us around to the Savior. It's hard to know the battles that others fight on the inside. You showing her the unconditional love of God through your actions, like you are, is the best you can do. Sometimes it takes others longer to come to the truth but love conquers all.

I'm praying for your Niece PM. Sometimes people have to hit a brick wall before they open the door and let Jesus in. That is great that she has indicated she wants to go to church with you. If she does open her heart to Christ, He can rid her of the lying. Trust is an important ingredient in every aspect of life, which is dependent on personal relationships, including work, friendship, love, and family. If someone wants to be believed when speaking the truth they must have credibility, and that will take time for her to gain back credibility, so she can be trusted.

She is lucky to have family that is still batting for her . And we are all lucky we have a God that forgives !

[powderman]

We never stopped loving her, but since her conversion I don't know of she can ever be fully trusted. Her  younger sister is still into the cult wearing the traditional garb everywhere. She  even gave up her Christian name and adopted a cult name. Sad to see lives wasted. POWDERMAN.

A very common experience, that first post. It seems every family must endure this at one time or another. Good luck.

Just out of curiosity, why has this experience not made her more devoted to her "satans disciples" way? Doesn't she have a support network with that group? Or was that more of a hobby than a permanent lifestyle?

[williamlayton]

No second guessing from me on this one. I am praising the Lord, it was His impitus that put her in touch with ya'll.
Blessings

She will be accepted back in to the christian faith , how would she fare the other way ?

Sometimes you gotta get lost to find your way home. 

Jesus continued: "There was a man who had two sons. The younger one said to his father, 'Father, give me my share of the estate.' So he divided his property between them.

 "Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.

 "When he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired men.' So he got up and went to his father.
   "But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.

 "The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.'

 "But the father said to his servants, 'Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' So they began to celebrate.

 "Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 'Your brother has come,' he replied, 'and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.'

 "The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. But he answered his father, 'Look! All these years I've been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!'

 " 'My son,' the father said, 'you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' "

Welcome her back, don't judge her about it, just be happy she is back.

Thanks guys. She was always my favorite of the 4 girls. She is welcome to come back of course. She's been married to more than one of these Godless scum. Her current one doesn't seem to be as much into the cult as the other one was, He could care less if she wants to be a Christian. She always liked playing mind games but I think she is seeing her own mortality for the first time and has realized that playing games with own life and soul could be disasterous. Playing the muslim game will not heal her or save her soul, I believe she is beginning to realize that only God can help her, the real one. With her 1st husband she traveled to Saudi, and several other Godless nations, doing whatever it is they do. Her current husband is messing around with several other women, as he sees it as his right as a muslim man. I believe her eyes are being opened and we will help her all we can. She was raised in a Christian family and baptised as a Christian. HEH. Next month she'll get tested at the family reunion, they are having HAM. We'll see if she eats some. . POWDERMAN.
