You know, even though I had experienced the unconditional love and forgiveness of God that imparted to me the knowledge that God understood everything about me but loved me any way, and extended His full forgiveness through the cross of Christ to me any way, and even though I also many years later, after continuing to run from Him in rebellion and disobedience and disbelief and defiance, I experienced Him in a way that was impossible for me to deny, it was experiencing what happened following my rejection of Him, experiencing the power of what I could only believe was Satan, and nobody else had any answer for at all, that brought me to my knees. Not literally, for I had been praying on my knees for years for God to reveal Himself to me. The only problem was, the God that is the I AM is not the God I wanted in the state I was in at the time. I understand now I spent a fair bit of time attempting to define God in ways that were acceptable to me, as opposed to defining myself in ways that were acceptable to Him
I hope it does not sound strange to you for me to say that I believe God unleashed the god of this world on me, and it was THAT terrifying experience, the one that nobody else could explain, that kept me looking for answers that could only Only ONLY be found in Scripture.
Yes! Faith is the answer, and it is not so much that I found the answer in Scripture, as I found peace from the agony of my life and seeking answers to my spiritual dilemma in my surrender to the One True God, Who reveals Himself through the revealed written Word as well as the Living WordWhat you're saying is NOT strange at all to me!
The things we go through, gives us what others need. We're glorifying God with our testimonies and and testimonies are helping others!
God's ways are so high and above ours............. we stumble with understanding what's going on with us, until He reveals what He is doing.
After stumbling often, I have learned to just simply.................Trust Him.![]()

And Lettuce consider how to stir it up with one another in regards to the head lettuce moving us (literally) toward love and good deeds. Therefore lettuce continue to relish encouragement one with another, and all the more as we see the day approaching. (Hebrews 10:24-25 Very Paraphrased). LOL
Hey I love Birthday's - but not always my own, because I feel like I want the Lord to have all the glory not me. But I need to understand that in honoring my birthday I do honor my Lord.
We sometimes hear people denying their birthday or “bending” the truth about their age. These attitudes are in direct contradiction with our Christian belief that each day is a gift from our Heavenly Father, so we wake up with gratitude for that one day when we mark that annual milestone. Birthdays also give us an opportunity to express gratitude for those we care about. We can mark another year of enjoying their presence in our lives, letting them know that because they enrich our world, it’s reason enough to praise God and celebrate the day.
You all are my presents, and the Praise of the Lord you give out of your will alongside His of the truth of His Majesty and Awe.
Psalm 22:10 “On you was I cast from my birth, and from my mother’s womb you have been my God.”
Corinthians 11:12 “for as woman was made from man, so man is now born of woman. And all things are from God.”
Ephesians 2:10 “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”
James 1:18 “Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.”
Psalm 118:24 “This is the day which the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it.”
Psalm 139:16 “Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.”
John 16:21 “When a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world.”
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.”
As I am 56 today I realize in His wisdom that we are not to preach the doing of good things; good deeds are not to be preached, they are to be performed. Thank you all for your kindness and respect, I return the respect and ask you to celebrate my Birthday today with your praise on your lips of what Jesus has done for you over the year. This is my present. And for each praises of a particular thing I will grant you gifts! For to give a gift is better than to receive one! And since its my birthday, I can do whatever I want! (According to His will of course!)..
I have been reading trying to catch up - oh my see I have gotten rusty - I mean Ketchup! Where has all my proper grammar gone to? Sorry!! And I have caught up - mostly anyway... but I love you guys and I love you Lord as my first fruit! Happy day! to us all! In Christ Jesus Our Lord!
