                                                      " ONCE, I WAS LOST"


There comes a time in one's life that you should account for yourself. A time that you should consider all that you do in life. Look at all the things that you hold important. There comes a time in your life that you have to take a stand on what you want your life on earth to be, but more importantly where you want to spend eternity.

I, for one have looked at all those things. So many people knew who I was, what I did, what I said in the person that lived the life of sin. I fell victim to the ways of the world that were not of God. Oh, I believed in God, and I believed in Jesus Christ, and I professed of being a born-again Christian. Yes, at times I even ministered to others and held Bible studies and counseled with some. But I was only doing the talk and not the walk.

Not long ago, just a few months as a fact, I was awakened by the word of God to attend a church, it would not have been the one that I might have thought of, but I was told, or I should say that my spirit was awakened by God and showed me were to go. I went not really expecting anything other than going to church. The moment, the VERY moment I entered into that building my heart jumped, my spirit danced inside of me, and the love of God was so apparent in all that were there. I was welcomed into the fold of brothers and sisters and have not once turned back.

Yes, I was lost, yes, I was stale and yes, I was in the realm of sin. But now I am back where I belong, now I am rejoicing and giving praise to my living Father God. Just because I was not looking at Jesus, He was always look at and after me. He was waiting for me to see my wrong doings and waiting for me to answer the door and let Him in. 

This blog is me saying that I am a child of God and that like a child I will fall down, I will make mistakes but that I know that my God will always be there to pick me up.

So, I say to you....to know God is one thing, but to "KNOW" God is the real thing. The distance between your head and your heart is just a short span, but the distance between Heaven and Hell is even shorter. It is an either or not with nothing between, it is your choice. My choice is Heaven and I submit myself entirely to God for him to use me in any way that he chooses. Amen
