Snyder Nursing Home, Salem VA

This mornig we had the honor of ministering in a nursing home.  It is always such a blessing to visit residents in nursing homes.  I love, as soon as we arrive, going to them individualy and talking with them.  Some have no responses, but it is still so wonderful to share the love of God with them.  I went to say hi to one particular lady, who was in the back.  A worker told me the resident was a bit grumpy.  I went by faith, in love, and talked to her.  She said she loved me and she thought I was beautiful.  When she said that, I knew it wasn't me she saw, but she saw the love God.  Thank you Lord!
We ministered through song and the Word of God.  I was so blessed to see people become more free.  "Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty."  II Corinthians 3:17. 
It is always a good reminder that there are so many people hurting and we must not forget them.  It doesn't take much time to go and encourage someone who is hurting.  I know that the Words of faith that God spoke through us this morning, strenghtened the residents at the nursing home.  Glory to God, thank you Jesus!
