Billy steered the buggy toward the Smoky Hill River, while Anna held the picnic basket on her lap. When they reached the river, Billy turned and stopped at a grassy area above the rocks, and they alighted the buggy. He took the basket from her.

“Over here,” Billy called. Anna followed.

He led her to a green area, under a large tree; this spot had a perfect view of the river. Anna opened the basket and removed a large tablecloth, and she spread it under the tree. She took out the chicken, pickled beets, and crackers and cheese. She also handed Billy a jar of lemonade. The tablecloth was large enough for Billy to sit on one side of the basket, while she sat on the other, facing the river.

As they ate, Anna remarked several times about the lovely scenery. Every so often a barge would float by.

“What a lovely day!” Billy said. “I haven’t felt this carefree in a long time.”

When they were finished eating, Billy helped Anna clear up the food and dishes. He moved the basket onto his other side, so they'd be able to sit side by side.

“Several things happen after saying the sinner’s prayer and meaning it. We have access to God’s grace. Ephesians 2:8: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Ephesians 2:18: For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

“We possess eternal life. John 10:28: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

"We have a personal relationship with God. John 15:15: Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

“How do you remember all those verses?” Anna asked.

“Ah, in the seminary we were required to memorize them. We were given verses to memorize daily and recite them to our teacher. You can’t give a sermon or counsel to anyone without backing up your words with scripture, so it’s a vital tool,” he said.

“So, is there anything else I need to do, besides saying the prayer?” she asked.

“No. You are now saved, if you truly meant it. Now all you have to do is to reinforce your faith by going to church, which should be easy, since your husband is the minister,” he winked again, “and having Christian fellowship, and by prayer. You’ll grow as a Christian and soon you will crave the word, like you crave dessert after a meal,” he said with a smile.
