A window has been opened
For all the world to see...
So brace yourself for what lies here,
For what you'll see is me...

I have grown up in a christian home and have had many christian friends throughout my entire life. I've even grown up in churches and everything. I knew who Christ was and I knew he died for us, but the problem was that I never took it seriously. I never really wanted to take it seriously. I didn't think I needed to. Even though I've never really been involved with things such as drugs or drinking or premarital sex, it didn't matter because no sin is worse than any other sin. I was just like anyone doing all that. I had not accepted Christ as my personal savior, and that mean't that I could not be truly satisfied. Finally, in my 7th grade year I went back to public school and saw things, heard things that totally opened my eyes to the disturbed world. It really made me see how much I wanted Christ and it made me realize how much I needed Christ. As much as I hate to say it, some of the kids at school made me strive for Christ even more, because I did not want to be like them. I did not want to be doing drugs, getting high, getting drunk, and sleeping around. I did not want that. I wanted to be happy. I finally realized that I wouldn't be happy and satisfied untill I accepted Christ. Many nights during that year I spent crying and praying. I wanted so much to accept Christ in my life and take him seriously. So one day, I made the decision and accepted him as my personal Lord and Savior. I thank God, because throughout my years I know that he has had his hand on me. Protecting me from alot of the things going on in this world. Even when I slip away sometimes, he's always there pulling me back somehow and I thank him fully for that.
Now that I am a born again christian. I have the peace that I need in life, I have the joy that fills my life with happiness, and I have only Christ to thank for all of this. I have been blessed with so much and even though tough things come into my life...I KNOW it'll be ok, for God has it all under control. As long as I am alive and well, I will serve my God and ONLY my God!
As we all know, God gives us each a calling. A calling for something, whether it be the calling to be a preacher, a doctor, a mentor etc. Whaever it may be , if God has directed us there, than there is a reason why we are there. We are all apart of the body of Christ and each of us plays a huge role in it, and we should all take a look at what God has gifted us to do. Our strengths will definitely become evident to others around us and over us. I have not found where God has called me to go. God has not revealed the direction he would like me to go yet, but I will share with you what I do want to become...I want to become an Animal Cop. I want to help rescue the many animals who are being killed, tortured and going through hell and back. There is no need for animal cruelty, they have feelings too. They are alive and have a heart beating...just like us! (Just a reminder!) God loves you and so do I, and well I hope that you look and listen for your calling from God! Gods plans for us are always good. Unknown can be frightening, but when the plans belong to God, we can rest assured that we can expect something marvelous. So drop your worries, and give it all to God.
Romans 12:6- God has given us each the ability to do certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out when you have faith that God is speaking through you.
Psalm 138:8- The Lord will work out his plans for my life.

One night I had an amazing dream. I was walking along the silent beach with the Lord, and across the clear blue skies flashed scenes from my life. In each scene I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand. One was mine, and one was the Lord's. When the last scene of my life appeared before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand, and to my surprise, I noticed that many times along the path of my life there was only one set of footprints. And I noticed that it was at the lowest and saddest times in my life. I asked the Lord about it: "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you would walk with me all the way. But I noticed that during the most troublesome times of my life there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why you left my side when I needed you most." The Lord said: "My precious child, I never left you during your time of trial. Where you see only one set of footprints, I was carrying you." |
