My small but wonderful family

1 Corinthians 1:27-29
My story with God
I grew up in a non-Christian family. I did not have a lot of exposure to things of God as a child. I did however have a lot of feelings about Him and felt badly when I sinned, which seemed all the time! My brother was saved as a young teenager through a church event with a friend. After that my mother gave her heart to Jesus. My father was a drinker. He had a temper. He was in a horrible car accident. Men from church reached out to him. He got saved. He slipped away though. I started going with my mom to a baptist church. My heart melted. I heard the message of Jesus. I knew after my decision that I loved Jesus. I do not know where my brother's heart is now regarding the Lord.

I had a lot of struggles with condemnation as a younger Christian. I never felt like I was doing things right, reading and praying enough. I had a bad "father" image. Someone told me about a man named Keith Green. He was very influential in my life. I began getting his music & free newsletters (inspired sermons by him and other preachers) for years. One of them changed my view of God completely and has never left me in all my trials & sin. It was called "The Father Heart of God." (recently I began thinking about it and looked it up online! Last days Ministries!) Keith Green was killed along with two of his children in the 80's. His wife carried that ministry on to today!

David Wilkerson also was a large influence towards me and I learned much about God and the Word through his sermons (I got these free in the mail for years) when I was in my teens and twenties. There were not many I respected or trusted like these two special people.

Even though we had many moves & my life was uprooted and I drifted from Him as a teenager, those newsletters kept coming and sometimes I would read them. The new friends I made led me into the world of drugs and drinking and living rebellious to all authority. I still had that small still voice inside that told me I love you and I am here for you. Life at home was very very unhappy and stressful. I caused a lot of heartache with my rebellious ways. I tried to talk to my parents but they could not understand and there was a huge gap like an ocean. Between hitchhiking, running away and ignoring everything that was good I was becoming very hard. I was a shy girl but found partying brought me out of myself.

My mom never stopped praying for all of us. She was the only one of us that stuck to her faith. She spent many many hours praying for me, I could always feel her prayers. (Prayer works! Faith works!) Time went on and my mother became ill. I was no longer living in the same city with them at that time. My father worked. My brother went to college....and I moved back home after things got rocky with my boyfriend.

Once I got here it didn't take me long to find friends who were like me. Trouble was around every corner. I met a man then and got married. Divorced 16 years later I spent the next 7+ years working constantly, raising my daughters, and staying single. I was a devoted lover of God until 4 years ago something happened in my life that dramatically changed me.

Only He knew what was inside me and what came out of it. It was a few years later that I watched my parents suffer much. We then slowly lost my father to cancer three years ago.

Life has been a lot of storms and sunshine as well. I came to the Lord most recently after many adventures, that have shaped my outlook and now I am just sitting at His feet asking Him to do what He wants with me. His mercy is never ending. He never misses anything. He knows why and what we feel. I never have seen such love as I do now with Jesus and everyday I am humbled by His mercy. I could not even begin to describe the crazy things I have been through and been rescued from.

What I do want to say from the core of my being is if you truly know Jesus, no matter what you go through He will NOT LET YOU GO!
Other stuff about me:
I'd rather learn about all of you now!!

Matthew 5:3-10

"Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Hello all. I haven't been here in soooo long. I almost forgot how to sign in. Life keeps changing for me and I just could use some prayer. Maybe more than just "some" prayer. I have decisions to make and I'm very afraid I'll make the wrong ones. My life in Christ is growing. But my personal life is just out of whack it feels. I don't know which way to turn.

Do You Know How Much God Loves You?! =]

God's main desire for us is to be lover's of God and allow Him to love us. His love for us more than we can ever fathom. One of many demonstrations of this in the word was in Peter's life. Matthew 26 is where he stumbles and falters. Peter was still a lover of God. He did not believe in himself and was devastated. Jesus never misses a beat in our lives! Peter felt he was disqualified after such a stumbling. In John 21 Jesus goes after him. It is hard for us to grasp the fact of how much God… Continue
