I am very excited and somewhat nervous to begin this blog. Through the years The Lord has laid it on my heart to write about my relationship with Him. It is a scary thought to have my thoughts out there for anyone to see. I know that The Lord has brought me through many trials and struggles in the past few years. The journey has been filled with hardship, depression, and the feeling at times to give up and quit fighting. It was through these times that The Lord got ahold of my heart for the first time. He stripped me off all my securities and brought me to my knees. He turned my eyes from myself and onto Him. I am ever thankful to The Lord for his patience, loving kindness, and willingness to make me face my true inner self. The process of burning off my weaknesses and the things in me that is not of Him is difficult, but results in a life full of joy, thankfulness, and peace. If given a choice, I would relive the past few years over and over in order to learn these lessons. My God is so good. He has proven me over and over that He is faithful and that He loves me. I am glad that He loves me enough to change me. Oh, the joy!! My God is greater than any stronghold or enemy that will ever come my way! I want to bring Him glory and honor. I want to redeem the time, moment by moment. I do not want to live in fear and worry, for this is not of the Lord. His spirit is love, power, and self-control. This is the spirit by which I write. This is my own personal experience as I walk with God and allow His spirit to guide me. I pray that The Lord will speak through me, and that He will use these words to reach others. If I can encourage just one person, then The Lord has been good. May God bless you in your walk with Him day by day, redeeming the time!
