Hello my Most Wonderful World Wide Family. I love you all. I am so happy to be writing and talking to you again, (and so soon). This year of 2022 is really flying by isn’t it? God tells us in His WORD the Bible that our lives here on earth are just a vapor. After our lives here end, then begins Eternity. Are you ready? Are you preparing for eternity?
JAMES 4:14 WHEREAS YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN TOMORROW. FOR WHAT IS YOUR LIFE? IT IS EVEN A VAPOR THAT APPEARS FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND THEN VANISHES AWAY. (nkjv)
Dear LORD God Almighty thank You for giving us Your ‘Manual for Life’, Your Holy Spirit Inspired Bible. Whenever we don’t have the answers or feel depleted, discouraged, depressed or despondent; we can come to You in prayer and we can read Your WORD for answers and guidance.
Please open our hearts, minds, souls and spirits to hear from You and Your WORD. Call us unto Yourself, show us Your purpose and destiny that You created us to fulfill while we are here on this earth. We desire to bring You Glory, Honor and Precious Souls.
Please bless and protect everyone of Your people and all of their generations. Keep Your angels around us and give us Your Wisdom and Your Perfect Love and Peace from Jehovah Shalom. Thank You in advance LORD. In Jesus’ Precious Name. Amen.
I was glancing through the comments for this blog. I noticed that out of almost 500 comments, they seemed to all be from some types of robots. (Except maybe 2 comments.) I could only imagine that if my identity was wrapped up in social media and obtaining likes and followers; I would be quite devastated and maybe even become depressed.
When I started writing this blog years ago, I wrote a statement of disclaimer. I said that I was only writing this because I felt the LORD wanted me to. The Holy Spirit taught me how to set it up by leading me to various sites which had directions on how to formulate a blog. I stated that I would not be able to answer any comments because this blog is only to bring Glory to God and to write what I pray about and feel that God wants me to write. Even if it helps one person to get saved and begin a relationship with God the Father, The LORD Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit= the ONE Triune God, it is worth it.
Fortunately my identity is not dependent upon social media nor any person or people groups for that matter. My identity is found solely in Jesus Christ. His WORD tells me who I am and Whose I am. I belong to Him. I freely gave my life, my will, my freedom of choice that He gave to me; all back to Him to do with as He pleases.
It wasn’t always like this. I spent many of my teenage years and my twenties pretty much only caring about what others thought about me and living however I pleased. I also spent those years being the worst sinner that I knew. Not only outward sins like doing drugs, cussing like there was no tomorrow, becoming pregnant while single by a man whom I didn’t know was married, and being promiscuous, but also sins of my heart and attitude.
ROMANS 6:6 FOR WE KNOW THAT OUR OLD SELF WAS CRUCIFIED WITH HIM SO THAT THE BODY RULED BY SIN MIGHT BE DONE AWAY WITH, THAT WE SHOULD NO LONGER BE SLAVES TO SIN.
GENESIS !:27 SO GOD CREATED MANKIND IN HIS OWN IMAGE, IN THE IMAGE OF GOD HE CREATED THEM; MALE AND FEMALE HE CREATED THEM.
1 CORINTHIANS 6:19-20 DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT YOUR BODIES ARE TEMPLES OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHO IS IN YOU, WHOM YOU HAVE RECEIVED FROM GOD? YOU ARE NOT YOUR OWN, YOU WERE BOUGHT WITH A PRICE. THEREFORE HONOR GOD WITH YOUR BODIES.
Jesus has truly set me free. This change in my life wasn’t a once in my lifetime thing either. It is a daily change, a daily choice to live more and more like Jesus Christ. I am daily being changed, sanctified, transformed and set apart from living with the desires of this fallen world and to align my desires with Christs’. I am so unbelievably grateful. I am a new creation.
I am able to grow immensely in maturity in the LORD. I am able to get to know Him more and more as I read His WORD and pray daily. (Pray all through the day some days, just to keep my mind and emotions in check.) I can think with His Mind and Love with His Heart. I have Him to turn to when I am sad or weak or going through yet another tragedy or loss.
1 CORINTHIANS 2:16 ….BUT WE UNDERSTAND THESE THINGS, FOR WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST. nlt
2 CORINTHIANS 5:17 THEREFORE, IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW CREATION; OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD, ALL THINGS HAVE BECOME NEW.
I truly am free to live for an audience of ONE. The ONE and ONLY GOD ALMIGHTY. There is nothing like life with the LORD. Wont you try it?
Until we get to talk again, please remember I love you and am praying for you all and all of your generations. Most importantly, Jesus loves you!
