My story with God
I was raised as a Catholic. I remembered my Mom took the family to church every Sunday. This church thing was mandatory. But despite of this, I was weak in the faith. I found it to be a burden. It didn't change me. Going to church didn't change me. I was the same when I went in and when I went out. I found no fulfillment. I questioned the things that went through my mind because they were in conflict with what I felt inside my heart. The bible says, " what I want to do. I do not do. The things I don't want to do. That I do." The bible is sooooooo true! So when I went to college, got married & had kids, my spirituality were at its lowest point. Once I said to myself," if only I have a guide. I would know what is right so I won't do what is wrong." I was very confused. I couldn't make the right decisions. Everything I did was wrong. To top it all, I was very empty. There was this deep void from within me that no matter how I tried to fill the things to satisfy the cravings I was longing for, there was nothing in this world that satisfied me. I kept this to myself. Then one day, my daughter's piano teacher who had finished the lesson asked me if I knew Jesus Christ. I said to myself, 'of course I know Him.' I told her, "yes I know Jesus Christ." Then she asked me," do you want to receive Him". My answer was "yes". She prayed silently and asked that the Holy Spirit would come. As she led me to pray the sinners prayer, I felt the power of the Holy Spirit came into my heart. It was like a supernatural wind blowing that made its entry into my heart. I felt the void in my heart gone. I couldn't describe the awesomeness that happened to me unless someone also had experienced it. It was beyond comprehension. I also felt the burden had been lifted. That burden could be none other than the sins I had committed. I experienced lightness where God's Spirit lifted my spirit off my feet. Then I saw a vision in my eyes of a prophet dressed in a long robe with sash around His waist and had sandals on His feet facing me by the opened door. These things I wondered about that late afternoon for a couple of hours. I didn't dwell on it because I thought that it could have been just my imagination.Therefore, I dismissed it and went about my household chores. I was invited to attend a church but didn't go. It wasn't in me yet. It was a couple of years later that I had the urge to finally belong to a church. I went to a membership class and my pastor told us to write a testimony. I thought to myself, "what testimony? I had none." I had a week to prepare and nothing to write! I forgot everything that happened of my conversion.It had been about 4 years since it happened. Then that night God revealed to me once again how I got saved on that late afternoon in details. It was a flashback after flashback. So God brought my memory back and it was as if it just happened! I said to myself, " Oh yah. Oh yah. I remember now". I stood in my bedroom completely awed. I felt I was in cloud nine. Jesus loves me. He is the best that ever happened to me. Jesus is my good Shepherd. Jesus is enough.
Other stuff about me:
I was saved when I became a single mother. I have 2 college kids. I got laid off after 20 years as a bookkeeper. I am a Quickbook ProAdvisor. Soon, I am starting a course to be a Certified Public Bookkeeper.

Dear Elena, oh what a peace, to be at peace with God is to be at peace with yourself. It feels so good to be at peace with God, you are able to relax yourself and watch him work. He takes care of us whenever we need help. He loves us beyond compare, all we need to do is love him in return and praise him every moment in time. The Lord is our keeper, let us rest in him.
