First Time Value
Dear Mr. Hamby,
I wanted to let you just how much your seminars Character to the Core and The Strong Willed Parent touched my heart. I was deeply moved by your insightful counsel in these areas; it was God's perfect timing that I was there, I believe. I was immensely encouraged to hear that "it's never to late" (for my heart to be changed.) I have struggled with going to bed every night knowing that once again , I had crushed my son's spirit a little more that day. Since hearing you speak, I have immersed myself in God's W ord, being reminded that He has not dealt with my sins mercilessly, seeing more clearly than ever His love and grace. (Ps 103:8-13)
I have since told my son for the first time how I value him and how God has a special plan for him. I have remembered to keep my arms open wide, and tonight I will not go to bed regretting today.
I thank my Heavenly Father for placing you and your experiences in my path. You are in my prayers, and I ask you to pray for me, as I face God's answers to my prayer of "change my heart Lord, whatever it takes".
Your sister in Christ,
PS I am looking forward to your newsletters and to reading your company's beautiful books to my children!
Dear No Regrets:
You made me and one of our secretaries cry this morning! What a wonderful letter. God is so good. S tay in His Word, always be willing to admit wrong (humble yourself and God will lift you up), and by faith, put into practice what you know to be true about God's character (His mercy is greater than His judgment, He doesn't deal with us according to our sins, He has compassion upon as a father, etc). J ___ could I use your testimony in our newsletter and web? It is very beautiful and I believe will encourage many struggling parents. All names will be deleted of course. Thanks again for reminding us of God's great love!
