| A wonderful, godly, beautiful girl has agreed to a special friendship with me!
Yes, me of all people.
God is amazing. I have never been led so directly as I have in this whole process. Wow!
I'm sure that you're wondering some details like name, phone number, and address....
I will divulge the first, but none of the rest (those are for me to
know!): her name is Shirleen Mullet - she was at SMBI when I was there.
Your prayers are appreciated as Shirleen and I start this new and exciting step in life. | | |
| Warning: Actual post, not some lousy excuse for keeping what few poor patient souls who actually read this thing.
I always wondered what it was that
the Woman at the Well found in Jesus. No, I didn't totally wonder, but
I never "knew it" beyond knowing it in my head.
I know now!
I have first hand experience. I know my Jesus and he satisfies me.
I don't know what exactly made it
click, other than God pushing me step by step toward it, but I do know
that I have a relationship with Jesus now that I've never come close to
having before.
I love knowledge and I love to think
and figure things out. It seems that my relationship with God was build
more on that than on actual relationship with Him. It wasn't until God
started taking situations completely out of my hands that I started
seeing how much God loves me and that he wants relationship with me. It seems that God is solidifying all that knowledge I have and that "head to heart" conversion is finally happening.
God "takes a risk" when he puts us in situations completely out of our
control, but he does that because he loves us and wants us to choose him and understand that he is in control.
Now I know what communion with God
is. Now I know what a real relationship with Jesus is. Now I know what
it is like to speak to God and have him speak to me.
Let me tell you friends, you may be
scared of giving your life completely over to God, but do it; it's
worth every bit. God doesn't just put you out on your own and expect
you to do what he asks of you without giving any help. No! God is there
giving you every bit of strength you possess and tons more besides.
Think a dedicated Christian life is
boring? Think again. God will give you every bit of excitement that you
can handle. And probably a bit more for good measure!
