Still Kicking Ruth A Willis

I believe that all our accomplishments in life are a result of God's direction. If we allow The Lord to lead us we can never fail. I was born into an environment where alcohol was dominant. Having lived in one room shacks on migrant farms and not knowing if you would survive the situation you were in. Our biological parents would leave us sometimes for weeks. We were in three foster homes before the state of Michigan decided that we had suffered enough and took us from them. We were all three adopted by William and Ora Murdock. I was in my twenties, when I was introduced to Christ. I have been married to the love of life for 48 years to Pastor Charles M Willis. Before we had taken the steps to take our marriage vows the Lord let me know that He had a purpose for Charles, That was preaching the gospel to lost souls. Being a pastor's wife was not one of my goals. I had made a commitment to marry Charles, before I knew his calling. There is such a blessing in allowing Christ to lead in all the decisions we make in life. We have two daughters Crystal and Sharone and four grandchildren and two great grandchildren. The Lord has been the center of our lives.
