Virgin Blogger

This "blogging" is all new to me, and I haven't written anything since
High School, so forgive my grammar, misspellings and such! I have things so heavy
on my heart sometimes but have no way to express them, so I think this might help.
And I hope it brings you joy.

Tonight I was finally able to connect with another
Christian on a one on one basis, and feel passionate
about the Lord, and the work he has done in my life,
and in the lives of the people I love.
I was able to share with somebody that the Lord
brought my family to salvation through a false prophet, who
beleived and taught things that were not biblical. To
proclaim the Lord used that time, and that person, to
bring us to search for ourselves the truth that lies
in Jesus Christ- was absolutely refreshing, and a joy
to see the expressions that result from a conversation
like this, are beyond happiness for me! I loved being
able to say "The Lord does not desire for us to be
poor." and "The Lord finds favor on those who love
Him." and know i was in absolute truth, covered in the
blood of Jesus Himself.
The truth is God gives us only what we can handle, and the
people who believe that you have to be in poverty to feel the
way Jesus did are misled. God desires us to live abundantly,
but if we can't control ourselves and love money more than God
Himself, he won't allow us to have it. He only gives us what we
can handle.
I want to announce to the whole world that my Joy in
life and in Jesus has been restored, all in one
evening (I'm sure its actually from a series of events
that occured while I was oblivious to them) but to me,
its just one evening of restoration, healing and
forgiveness. Being able to praise the Lord in dance
tonight, was a breath of God-breathed fresh air to me,
I can't even begin to express how much I miss having
Jesus beside me as I praise him with my entire body,
mind and spirit. To God be the glory!
