I been through it all
All that I want to go to through
I'm done being passive and quiet
I'm done letting things brush off my shoulder
I'm tired of letting things happen because I didn't do or say something
What more can I say……..
This is what I feel like right now, but at the same time I am still blessed. Blessed enough to know that God loves me. I feel special everyday when I wake up. I was watching Creflo Dollar and he was talking about the recession and God's children. And the main point that he said was that God's children lack nothing. Well he probably didn't say quite that way, but that's the way I am saying he said it. Either way, a very point. That word just touched me and made me think about things in my life. I have food everyday, a family that loves me, a closet full of clothes and shoes, friends, life itself, and most of all I have God. I have realized that everything that I need I already have, writing this makes me think even more about it. God loves me and thankfully I haven't left him yet. A few blogs back, I mention I prayed to God to never leave me or let me leave him, and he replied through my bible that same night. Well to be honest, I have done some things lately that just wouldn't make my mother proud (it's not that bad), and the other night I started reading my bible, and it was a warning. As I flipped through the bible, a couple of times it said "Return to me, and I'll return to you." And my spirit knew exactly what he was talking about.
See….I love the relationship I have with God. No one else can compare to the same relationship with him. He talks to me when I need him, or just to be sociable. Yes, sometimes I lay in bed and I began talking to him about things going on, it might seem as if I am talking to myself, but no I am not crazy, I just found a friend that would always be blunt with me. A friend that protects me, comforts me, loves me, and most of all created me. It feels good to have this connection. So good! For so many months, I prayed to have a closer relationship with God, confidence that I can do all things through him, and love for myself. See now I know what it really means to say, "You have not, because ask not." See everything that I ask for I receive according to God's will, I may not have received everything I asked for in the physical, but I know it's already mine. I am not the most virtuous person of them all, I am not free without sin, and to be honest I haven't been to church in a long time. I mean everyone is different when it comes God, he may reach you through a friend or family member, your home church, or the TV Evangelist or just by opening your bible (that simple). Before I do this, I am not pastor, I just know this works from experience, if you haven't known by now, I talk about doing this all the time.
Tonight or when you have time, grab your bible and pray before you open it. This is what I normally say or something similar to this extent:
Father, I thank you for the right now word that I am about to receive that will affect my daily life. I thank you for it right now, in Jesus name, Amen.
It's that simple. Try it! It works for me every time.
God Bless!
