We were stationed in Dawson Creek, B. C. as manager of my first branch with the Bank. My wife Lorna had started to attend a Bible study hosted by a neighbor, and we had started to attend a small MB church in town.  I enjoyed the fellowship but was an uninvolved attendee until I lost a good friend and significant client in a plane crash.  He and I had been discussing our wives involvement in Christian matters, and while comfortable with it, it was not a priority.  On his death, I realized my salvation was not assured and through asking the group to pray for his widow, made known my acceptance of the faith.

I would not be truthful if I indicated an immediate significant external change took place that was observable to others.  Over time I believe I have become more tolerant of other, (but not always), and have an increased awareness of God’s plan and direction in my life.

Hebrews 11:1 “Now faith is the substance of thing hoped for, the evidence of things unseen.”

This verse appeal to me as it is complete in itself.
