Many years...............He means EVERYTHING to me..........
A Christian is a blood bought, born again believer in and disciple of Jesus Christ, and they are not afraid to have their Profile Page seen................
Luke, Chapter 8:
17) For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.

At the end of summer I will have been a Christian for 8 years.
As for what it means for me well you may not want the answer as the post would be lengthy because there is simply no simple way to express it but lets just say if there was a word that was deeper than the word passion that would be it

Indeed, I tend to gush and over write in very long posts when it comes to him and I try not to because I know it tends to be a bit annoying to tohers trust me if I were to express it not only would be a long one but you would see the inner depths of my heart when it comes to him.
Some are Christians and saved but then there are those who are so in love with him that their passion and devotion can be a bit overwhelming so out of respect for others I try to restrain myself though sometimes I simply am unable to XD

I am the same way I cannot go a day without talking with him even if I am busy doing something I speak with him in my mind and I love to listen to him and find him in everything. even yesterday as we were at the lake I could not be on cc because the internet there is really bad but we were on the boat drinking and doing wave boarding and I have a speed addiction so it was so fun for me but even then I looked at the sky and saw the clouds forming and I saw him them ansd just sat there on the boat drinking my beer and talking with him
I know the hunger and the thirst for him and I know the intimacy of ebign with him and I am just fascinated by everything about him and so ever since I was saved the one thing I sought after and will have no matter what the cost is a level of inimacy and love with him unlike anything any ever seen before, I am not after an ordinary love and relationship with him and I express this to him every day. Trust me when I am able to search the vast ocean that is his heart without limitations I am going to go all the way as deep as we are able to and if it truly is endless then that is all the better
On this side of heaven we are li ited in many ways but that intimacy and hunger with him will drive us to places we never knew were possible even on this side of heaven. There is a difference between a christian by title and a Christian by heart

I had a wonderful Family unit involved in Leadership. Teaching, Pastoring, and I accepted Christ around the age of 5 and wanted to be Baptized and was. As the years went by, I began seeing the Church, how I was to act, what I should wear, and the fact of being an example because my Family led the Church caused me to entertain ungodly idealisms. Next I was into drugs, into paganism and witchcraft, into drinking, into have multiple women, into a lifestyle that led to many troubles. I had formatted a belief that being a Believer in God meant I was a sissy. It really came down to my father last few months on this Earth that caused me to refocus the path I was on. Ever since then, I feel like I am starving without more of God. And I could not be any happier than I am right now.

I grew up with a foster family and the foster dad worked in the church but was a horrible person he would steal from the church all the time and back then I was just a kid I found church to be a pain and boring. I left my foster dad when my mom divorced him and we moved to okc but my family wanted nothing to do with God and for the longest time I didn't either but over the years as my family continued to change and neglect me in all manners I felt completely uncared about unloved and that I didn't matter I was so lonely and that is what lead me to seek him but even though I went to church it still felt fake like something was missing. I was never taught about a relationship with God but I have always been spiritually intuitive even before I was saved I could tell when demons were around so maybe that is why I knew something was missing.
I wanted the real thing I wanted something with him that I could experience and hold dear to my heart and when I did find this ever since then that hunger you speak of has been my daily life. That starvation is like you are so very hungry for so much more for him but it is like he only gives you just enough to not starve to death but to hungrily seek for much more of him, like you are so parched and he gives you enough to not die of thirst but you are never quenched and seek after his waters.
It is both a blessing and a curse because you seek after him with that kind of heart and that gives him such great delight but at the same time it feels like it isn't fair because you don't get near enough of him as you want you crave him you hunger for him you thirst and long for deeply with graons inside of starvation and parchness but it seems no matter how far you go and how much you search it is like you just can't have him like this on this side of heaven

Thank you. I try to never answer a post myself but let the Lord guide only. My ego sometimes gets in the way, sometimes I am amazed at what the Lord says through me.
This site has added so much to my life! The questions asked sends me on a search of scripture I would not have done without the inspiration from this site.
