- My story with God
- *This is hard to sum up in one box and my story is not complete, but until now this is how it has been*
God has always been a part of my life. I can remember being a small child and feeling his presence in the field & woods where I spent most of my time. I was also raised Catholic and delighted in learning about him. My mother spent some time teaching us the importance of Jesus, but I never truly understood that I could know him on a personal level. As a teen, I strayed due to many hurts in my life at that time, I became confused and longed to know the truth. I explored many different religions and never felt peace with any of them.
But.....
God always led me back to him, no matter how far I strayed.I would feel Him tugging on my heartstrings and I would occasionally visit different churches seeking him.
I cannot begin to tell you how thankful I am to HIM for my life. For alot of my adulthood I abused alcohol and focused on only the negative aspects of my life. I would cry out to him to save me from my terrible habits but it wasn't until I had nothing left of myself to love or take comfort in that I realized I absolutely NEEDED him.
This past winter after desperately seeking Him I found him once again, he showed me my sins the way he saw them and I found myself on my knees in total despair for what I had done.(living apart from him for so long) I begged his forgiveness and humility carried me back to that cross. In a instant I knew that he was my CREATOR/Father and I his creation/child, I felt so much love and peace, and finally reborn. I now no longer crave alcohol and I choose to focus on the positive. Sometimes my old self likes to creep in and remind me of those past hurts or even present ones, I am learning (and also by everyone here) that I need to always trust God and surrender everything to him.
I do not look to the world any longer for gratification, only Jesus. I am constantly searching my heart to make sure I am living out his will. Life is tough, and this path a narrow one, but NOTHING could ever lead me off of it again, I am here to finish this race. I give all the glory to God.
Praise Jesus our Glorious King!! My God my one and only Maker, my Father, my Savior, my Redeemer, my Restorer, my Rebuilder, my Rewarder- I give Him all the Praise!!! amen. - Other stuff about me:
- I am a mom to my two beautiful daughters, Hannah and Sophie, my gifts from God. They have taught me how to laugh and be silly again. To dream and love unconditionally. Being a mother has shown what true love is and I know this is how God must feel towards us. Perhaps this is why God gave them to me, as I had a hard time understanding what love really was, before I had my children.
I also looove to read, write and listen to and play music (guitar) I love learning about Gods Holy word and being out in nature. I love to swim (it reminds me of being a kid and it makes me feel free) and relax by the lake. I love great conversations and to laugh ALOT.My fiance makes me laugh everyday!! I am getting baptized this summer and I am very excited. I long for the day when I can see my makers face again.(I had a dream once when I was fifteen, where Jesus came to me and held out his hand and asked me to take his hand and follow him-I did and I felt pure bliss, happiness,love, like fireworks lol) a *feeling* I had never or have never felt. Anyways it seemed very real and I sometimes wonder if it was.... either way I do long for that day and I pray that many of my family members who are unsaved will see his face too.
and thats about it for now.
