I am finally alive. I never knew how freeing it would be. Sure, I've been breathing and living and walking and doing for many many years now. But ALIVE? No.
God........he never needed me to do anything but depend on Him. All the things I thought I never wanted are exactly the things I needed all along. All the things I thought I needed and tried to hard to attain have turned out to be things that likely would have stolen my life and soul. Just LOOK at how far we've come, and only Jesus is to thank. I can only praise the name of Jesus and testify to His goodness and mercy. If He can save someone like me and bless my life in spite of myself, He can do all things for all people.
Today I type this as a different man from the one that was full of fresh realizations. Today I type this as a man with years of experiences, shaping, seasoning, and blessing. I have SEEN how good the Lord is, I have TASTED of His love and mercy, and I can tell you assuredly it IS good. He IS who He says He is, and He DOES what He says He will do.
Friends - - - - do this:
Get your your Bible. Start reading it. FIND a church and get up and go EVERY WEEK. Do this for a few months, and then email me here and tell me what changes you have seen and experienced in your life. Allow me to hear your story and pray for and with you.
If you will call on the name of Jesus, invite Him into your heart and profess with your mouth and mind that He IS Lord and Savior, you WILL be saved. You WILL begin to see His work in your life, and you WILL understand the joy I have have found. Share it with me and celebrate with me in eternity!!!
All my love and hope,
