Faith

How do you know that you have faith? When pretty bad things happen that should completely paralyze you, and they don’t…because you know that your Jesus is bigger than all of that. How do you know that Jesus is there, because an overwhelming sense of calmness holds you still, holds you up…and wraps around you. God will continue to reveal places that he feels you need to give a little ‘attention’ to, through trials, chaos, hardships…but amidst all of those he remains…ALWAYS, by your side, guiding you, holding you and wrapping you in his never ending love.

Don’t ever take the things of this world for granted, in a moment, what you think your life is can be changed. By a phone call, a wrong turn, a bad choice a spoken word… So be careful, that the things you encounter in life are not things that you could have prevented, make choices that make God smile, do things knowing he is watching you and with you, don’t live in a way that would make you ashamed to have him at your side…because he goes with us everywhere, sees everything and knows all… There is no fooling him.

Sometimes I look back on things I have done, or said, even caused and I am so very ashamed and embarrassed that my heavenly Father was a witness to it. But the reality is, that he was, and he wept…and he cried…and he hurt… all because of me. Yet he remained there waiting, for me to turn back to him, his arms always open, his love as strong as ever…

I am a sinner, I sin every day of my life, in my thoughts, in my words and sometimes even in my actions….but I KNOW that I am a sinner and I try so hard to be all that my Jesus would want me to be. I try even more now than ever to live right knowing that to my son…I AM JESUS, he is watching me, wanting to be more like me…I have to try to be someone that I would want him to be… just like Jesus. I know I can’t be perfect, no one but HIM can be, but I can try my best to be better….

So I try every day to live better so that at the end of the day, when I lay my head down and drift off to sleep, I feel so good, knowing he is looking at me and he is smiling.

You Can Have…All This World…Just Give Me Jesus….
