Ana’s vow
Hello, Mrs. Cristiane!
I attended your lecture at the Cathedral of Faith in Rio de Janeiro – Brazil. But I couldn’t listen very well to what you were saying because the sound system where I was sitting was not very good. However, I heard what I needed to hear.
At the end of the meeting, when we made the vow of Ana, it was very strong for me. I’m having problems with my son, who, like many other assistants’ children, grew up in Church. I gave him to God, like Ana did, even before her son was born.
I understood that my child has not been born yet. It’s true. He does not exist yet! The most curious thing is that, early Saturday morning, I was talking with a friend and I remembered when I first came to Church, nearly 13 years ago. In those days, I gave my son to God and asked Him to use him as He pleased, because my son was no longer mine. But, the Saturday morning before the lecture, I remember the vow I made and realized that this day was approaching very quickly, because my son is already 15 years old.
I did not “remove” my son from the altar, but I realized that I did not want him far away from me, even if it was for him to be used by God. I almost regretted the vow I had made!! I became very sad, because I knew that I wouldn’t be able to my son for a long time because of God’s plan for his life.
On Saturday I discovered things about my son that left me devastated. I went to the lecture on Sunday feeling completely down and out… My son didn’t even come to Church that morning! But I did not give up the plans I had already made and went to the Cathedral. There, while I was making the vow, God showed me that He would take care of my son, I did not need to worry about him. All I had to do was feed him, that’s it!
Like a mother that is pregnant, all I need to do is eat well and pray that everything goes well during the “delivery”. I know that God is doing His part, so I am no longer worried. After all, what can a pregnant woman do to insure that her child is born without any problems? All she can do is make sure that she’s eating properly so that she can feed her child through the placenta.
I’m awaiting the birth of my son for the honor and glory of God! I eagerly await him to surrender his life to God so that He can use him wherever He wants!
Like Ana, I will personally place him on the altar once he has been weaned. Lol…
I will feed him with the best food and I know I’ll see him grow strong in the presence of God.
I thank God for your life!
Kisses,
Gisele.
