All About GOD

All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

I just wanted to make my shame public. For the last few months I have found more intersting things to do than reading my Bible... I have been "busy" looking for job, looking for house,  looking for the perfect hair regimen that will keep it healthy, but i havent even had a minute to look for a chuch or to  read a few bible verses. I cancelled my bible study and i just focused on myself and my ridiculous needs.

 

I found a house and a dream job that i will not be able to do because God has given me the privilege to be expecting a new baby. I've been feeling really disappointed and upset because i 'm finding very difficult to build my career, when what i should be is happy about being pregnant. I've lost most of my values and my faith has weakened so much in the past few months just because i havent been feeding it. its so important to feed our faith...

 

Its never too late... i keep saying to myself, i just need to focus on building back my relationship with Him. I have the feeling He is looking at me and shaking HIs head.

 

I'm not actually looking for advise, I think i know what to do, maybe a little support from you guys...

 

Thanks and God bless.

Hello my dear Virginia
It is true that you know what to do virginia and you dont also need any advice, but allow me to share some thing with you. It is good you have realized your mistake and I believe it is God himself speaking to you. Come back to Him, He will accept you back the way you are. God is not like human beings. He loves you and He really cares for you. Dont look on how big is the sin you have done He will accept you back as his daughter. I will remember you in prayers. it is not to late. He cares for you . You are specaial before him. please make a wise decision.
Yours

Chica te metiera un pejiscon por.... No girl just kidding :)

Love to you beloved. His arms are wide open. You are expecting a baby, Wow (casate mujer hahaha) what a privilege. The one treasure you can give that baby from now until you die is the word of God, but to do that you got to live the word by knowing it.

I know, I know you are not asking for advise, but girl - I am your big brother, so whatever hahaha j/k you.

Love to you preciosa.

Saludos – My Lord bless you with hunger for His living word and not just the hunger but the actual doing is my prayer for you my sis.

Check out this song - It is probably not something you would generally listen to but check out this lyrics

With Arms Wide Open"

Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change
I closed my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open

Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be
I'll take a breath, I'll take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything ...oh yeah
With arms wide open..wide open

[Guitar Break]

If I had just one wish Only one demand I hope he's not like me I hope he understands
That he can take this life And hold it by the hand And he can greet the world With arms wide open...


With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything..oh yeah
With arms wide open....wide op
wow Virginia, i have been doing the exact same time. I know the Lord has been trying to get my attention and i see it for a moment and put Him on the back burner. I see Him all over trying to get me to come back to Him. Tonight everytime something popped up in my head tonight to do something, i would do it and somehow it would be about God. For instance, watching CBN, and coming on here. I have not logged onto this website in a few months now and tonight i just had a feeling I needed to and i think this is why! Thank you for your story.
Hey you Sandra,

You have been missed and Praise God that His never gonna stop calling His children back home. Thank you for listening to Him tonight and I pray the same prayer for my sis. That God gives you an unquenchable hunger for His word and His righteousness. Not just the desire but the actually doing. I asked this question in one of my sermons to the congregation: stop and think why is such a struggle to get in the word, why does Satan and his army place so many distractions in our path to stop us from getting in the word? Simple, because that is where our freedom is. The living word.

Fight the fight beloved for God, for you and your family.

Love to you my friend and sis.


THank you David, yes!! every time the Holy Spirit tells me to read the bible or look at something pertaining to the Lord, something else catches my eye and I just lay Him off! ugh i hate it and I really do want to get on the right track, I need motivation and i know satan is lying to me and telling me how boring the Word is, how boring it is to live the Godly way and so on and so forth..i just need to take a step back and look at all that the Lord has given me, praise Him and thank Him for everything He has done for me. The other night I had a dream. I went up to heaven, I finally got close to God, (cuz usually with these dreams, i wake up mid way in the air) well everything about Him disappeared but His hands. His hands were cupped closed and He started opening His hands and it was VERY bright, but it was the world in His hands. Then i looked up and He smiled at me and we sat down together, read a book, and started to talk...then i woke up...idk what it meant but the only thing i can think of is that He has more to offer me than what the world has to offer. I just pray that i can get back on track!
Sandra and Virginia,

Sorry for the many grammatical errors on my previous post, I was in and out, falling sleep. So here it is again. :) You sisters deserve the best like all my family in Christ.

Ok let me give you some motivation then sisters.

1 The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:

This is what the wises man (a part from Jesus of course) to ever lived, had to say about the lLiving word. Solomon had a lot to say about the beauty and excellencies of the word throughout his writings.

2 for gaining wisdom

The word of God makes the simple wise. How beautiful is to meet a wise person, someone that speaks life and not death, someone who speaks into your life sound counsel, mature counsel? It is a pleasure and a beautiful thing, amen. Well God is saying abide in the word and you will know the truth and the truth will make you free. Free people are wise people. Wouldn't you want to be wiser? Of course you would, who wouldn't? What can being wise do for a person and their loves ones and for anyone that crosses their path for that matter? Being wise not in worldly wisdom which puffs up, but in Godly wisdom which makes the arrogant humble. The prideful a servant, the not so bright hahaha wise.

Salomon is saying this about the proverbs someone may object, but this is applicable to the entire word of God. Read Psalm 119

and instruction:

Good Lord I can't even start to tell you how important this is. Oh how I get ticked when I hear Christians like parrots repeat the sayings of the world, like, Oh I wish there was a manual on how to be a good parent or a good husband, but life does not give us such privilege, one must learn through errors. AAhhhhhhh What?????? Its true one must learn through some trials and errors, but the overall and specific principals in the word for living free and a joyous life are applicable to all circumstances of life. I feel like bible slapping them ahhaaha just kidding, which shows I need more wisdom hehe yikes. Ok ok I will get back to the point and stop being a silly wabit.

Woman you want to be the bomb mom, daughter, wife, disciple, person, gain biblical instruction. Is there for you beloved. God gives wisdom to all that ask.

James 1:5 New International Version (©1984)
If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.


for understanding words of insight;

You know how the world is always telling us that they have the exclusive story on so and so or the inside story on this or that, bunch of garbage. God is telling you - I am offering insight information to you about life more abundant not who is Britney Spear dating today hahaahaha poor Britney and those like her who tasted at one point of the goodness of God, but the world has tossed them up. We need to pray for her, Whitney Houston and Earl Simmons (DMX).

The scriptures are saying this and so much more in two little verses, sisters now imagine the treasure for you to gain throughout the entire bible.

Anyhoo beloved sisters - love to you hope this helps a bit. I know, I know you know this, but I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth you now have.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 (New International Version)

13 Now all has been heard;
here is the conclusion of the matter:
Fear God and keep his commandments,
for this is the duty of all mankind.


Hi David,

Thanks so much for always being there, thanks to you, Sandra as well , and the rest of you, guys. I've been thinking these last days and i might have found where the problem is. I give way too much importance to my performance. I'll explain, the church i used to attend tougth me that if God is with you, you must be healthy, have a good job, have a good marriage, in other words, have a perfect life. I also learned that I had to make a significant personal effort together with praying. Those words got stuck in my head... I also remember once i wasnt having the best of my days after an argument at home and i decided to walk around London and i met this man who stopped me in the street, as if he knew what was going on in my life, he gave me a lesson on forgiveness (out of the blue).

The next day i went to church and i commented it. I told them that the man was probably living in the streets because he looked unkept and the first thing i was told was that he couldnt be a "godly" man because God doesnt like his lpeople looking dirty, you have to take care of yourself and look your best... bla, bla, bla... stupid me, i listened and i even felt cheated by the stranger!!

Anyway to cut long story short, i think i must stop focusing so much on my performance, i might never get to have a good job or to get married... Do i really need that? Does God want those things for me?
what do u think?

God bless u all.
hi and shalom virginia.. how do u do??? =) hope everything is ok there. Sist, God's has plan for u, just pray n trust in Him. Sooner or later, u will know it. =) keep in touch with Him and let HE be the 1st place in ur life and ur life will be more interesting and wonderful with Him. As me, im really busy too and sometime make an excuses not to go to fellowship with my frens, but deep in my heart i praise Him and trust in Him in anything i do even in hard situation(sometime people can blame Him), i still praise Him. Sometime, we want to do thing that we like most but even we pray for it, it can't be reality just because He had planned another thing for us. =) Im still a student in my final year and after this i do not know what will happen in my new life, but i left it to Him to lead me for future. =) Nothing is impossible in Him. God is our best friend,father,brother,lover and savior. He never leave us alone in pain. He always there for us. wow! i want to know u guys more actually but i can't-time is lmtd. But, it's okay. In prayer, we meet each other with God. =) Sist, u must take a good care of yourself and God bless u! Immanuel.

Thank you, Monica for taking the time to write something for me. Things are getting better slowly. I am having much more realtionship with Him than before... i am much more happy now, praise Him.

Life can be so difficult sometimes... All the best in your final year i am sure God will direct you as soon as you are done with your course.

 

Thanks sist,Virginia... how do u do?? Yes, i know God has plan for us..plenty of wonderful plan that we never know.. keep in Touch with Him and take care sist..God bless u! =)

 

                                                                                                           with love,

                                                                                                               eqqa.

Thank you David for the words of encouragement, I do feel so much peace being on this website and I dont feel guilty about it. When I get on facebook, i do feel guilty because I could spend two hours playing one game, when I could be doing my homework or come on here and have fellowship with other believers in Christ.

I have decided last night to start reading the book of Psalms and it has already given me so much information that I could apply and watch out for! Proverbs is my favorite book in the bible because of the wise sayings...thank the Lord for Solomon!

Virginia....I think that homeless man that approached you may have been an angel in disguise! The way your church treated the situation was sad and I am glad that you have changed your outlook on it as well! and you are right, maybe God doesn't want you to have that job you want, but im not sure about the marriage thing, I think He does want you to get married, so that you are not living in sexual sin, but just make sure you get married to the right man, so that you are not miserable and think about divorcing! Pray for the right man and God will bring him to you. No one or nothing is perfect, and I believe we were born with flaws so that we could turn to the Lord for strength to what pleases Him! Congrats on your baby!
