Wow do I have a lot to write about!
So last night I went to a big Judgement Journey in GA with my church. It was very scary... I thought the Revelation Walk was pretty scary, it had nothing on this. There is no way to describe how realistic it was, I just can't even put it into words. Last night I could hardly sleep, I felt so confused about my salvation, I did not want to be left behind after the Rapture. It's very hard for me to admit this, but I thought I was saved on June 24, 2004, I wasn't. I don't think I really put my life and my trust in God's hands. I think there has always been a part of me that has tried to control my life. Like Daddy told me today, I think it was my mind that lead me to be saved and not my heart. I tried to be a "good Christian" I started basing it on what I did and how good I could be. Then Twister came into my life and he totally took over. He controlled me.... This morning I accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of my life! Bro. Frank's message this morning was on Salvation... at the time of the invitation song my heart was pounding and I knew what I needed to do. I needed to give my life totally over to God and let Him be my Lord, and not Twister. These past few years I haven't really been living, I've been barely surviving. It's time to live for the Man who died for me!
Since Wednesday I had really gotten back with Twister. I was barely eating, I was exercising, I was lying, I was cheating, I was back in his arms. I'm tired of it, I want to live again and live the life God has designed for me... I know I have so much more to do. I don't know how much longer I have on this earth and I want to live it for Him and not for my body or Twister. I laid it at God's feet... I'm ready to be still and let Him fight for me.. It's time to live again! I am now prepared to fight what Twister has to through at me, I am going to hide in the shadow of God's wings and let Him do it for me. I know it's still going to be hard, but I have a new prespective. I'm ready to get on with my life... although I know I will still struggle, like I've said before I will stumble and fall down but with Him I will not be moved.
Kaitlyn, I am so proud of you and yes that pounding in your heart was the Holy Spirit knocking on the door of your heart. I experienced the same thing many years ago. Just remember God never promises life to be easy but He does promise to be your refuge, your strength when you are weak. The hard part is letting go and letting HIm have complete control. You can do it!!!! Love you!!!!
ReplyDeleteSophie is in the hospital and I am sitting here with her as she sleeps. She has a horrible bladder infection and will be having surgery Dec 2 to have her right kidney and ureter removed.
Hey girl! I love you and am glad that God spoke to you and now you are truly saved! I updated my blog today. I've been trying to update it frequently! =)
