Hey
Welcome to my mind, my thoughts and my heart.. feel free to comment if you so desire
Here i am im here blessed beyond belief beyond my understanding that someone like my could be blessed beyond my comprehension but thats because im not blessed cause who i am God blesses from His grace the limitless grace i'll never fully understand maybe thats the most i ever will understand it, knowing i cant but nevertheless im blessed. so here i am praying that God, You'll give me the strength commitment and faith to live for You to give You my life fully to thank You in the only way i know how for Your grace, mercy and Your son.
Found this the other day... Think it's really interesting. Good to think about "Would I be called a Christian? Would i be called a christian if everybody knew my secret thoughts and feelings and everything i do? oh, would they see the likeness of Christ in me each day? oh, would they hear Him speaking in every word i say? Would i be called a christian if everybody could know that i am found in places where Jesus would not go? oh, would they hear His echo in every song i sing... in eating, drinking, dressing would they see Christ in me? Would i be called christian if judged by what i read by all my recreation and every thought and deed? would i be counted Christ-like as i now work and pray unselfish, kind, forgiving to others every day?" ~ anon
How many blessings do i have? how many that i have not counted? Each second i breathe every sunrise and sunset i live through every friend and family member every broken heart and healed cut every smile as people pass by every small thing and every large guess it's time to give praise and that praise can only go to the Father of Lights.... sometimes we may forget His abundant blessings but with a smile He reminds us each and every day :)
Be grateful God is the perfect loving Father! Because what you're doing would destroy almost any human heart, almost any respect for you! Don't forget even with God there are consequences.. Just be very grateful cause all of a sudden i am.. im no better than you but i'll acknowledge my faults and work at them im trying to stop my wrongs, i regret them.. Be grateful God is forgiving cause you're pushing people away from Him!
My shepherd i hear Your call i hear You calling me back to the flock i start on my way back but get caught on something or fall into a hole.. Only then do i cry back only then do i plead with You to find me and in spite of my selfish ways my lack of understanding and my lack of care You come and find me gently untangle and lift me up to carry me home You clean me up and place me back into the flock where gently patiently caringly You watch over us all
How often have we searched how often have we looked how often do we try to find that lost bit of us how often is it we search everywhere it can't be found how often do we turn to wrong things to make it right how often do we turn away from the light how often is it we play with God how often is it we dont see the truth how often do we just lose sight
So looking back at the years gone by, how on earth did we survive. Heartache and pain have been abundant over the last few years, but so has joy. Watching children grow, teachs us so much of what we really need to know. Be honest and loyal, respectful and true be kind and caring in everything you do. Be faithful, be soft laugh a lot and be yourself. Have unfaltering faith and true love. cling tight to family and friends. Try be your best, try bring others smiles. The biggest thing a child knows that somehow we forget, is that in helping others and bringing them joy, you find joy and peace above all freedom.
Look back at the past smile at your regrets let the truth be known, you're stronger than him. Look back at the time you spent know you did your best, remember what was good remember he's human. Look back at it all if you remember just this, remember hating him might be easy, but forgiving him will set you free. Look back and know, that you forgive not because you're weak but because you're strong and he can't break you.
So well will you stop playing this game? When will you remember who you playing with? The Creator of all, the one and only God, He created the earth by His words and yet you find this game fun. You don't think about the future when He comes again.. O foolish children where then will you hide Where then will you try to wash your inquity again what then will you use to try scrub that mark away When will you find time with Him more fufilling than time with some chick or some guy when will you realise He's waiting for you THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE is waiting for you not because you are great but cause He loves you when will you wake up to how much of yourself you're giving away when will you see how much you've lost you gambling with your life but hey if it isn't dangerous it isn't fun, isn't that what you believe. well when you wake up take a good look around cause maybe when you see how far gone you are, maybe just maybe you won't be too lost to find your way back
We spend our lives walking down the same old streets doing the same old stuff trying to find some purpose some reason to live then somewhere some discover God He gives them more than a reason He gives them a passion a love for living the straight and narrow path.. Suddenly lives are changed suddenly even when life is at its hardest they can smile simply because God is awesome
