BOO!
Acrylic
KAREN THIS IS FOR YOU.
THIS PAINTING IS A MOTHER AND HER DOGGIE.
I DON'T KNOW WHY I CHOSE IT BUT IT IS ENDEARING.
OK, I'M ALREADY GETTING A LITTLE TIRED OF THIS SO
MAY I BE SHORT, SWEET AND SUCCINCT. :)
I'm going to start off with my Sunday visit to church.
I love this Pastor because he is not surrounded by
fluff,
frosting,
or ice cream.
He tells the Word of God (Bible) like it is!
He does not try to compromise it at all.
Many, many years ago I was a major liberal searching for God.
I can sincerely say that I really wanted to find the true God.
so....
I delved into Hatha Yoga, Occultism (I was a medium)
drugs,
astrology,
Carlos Casteneda,
Eric Van Daniken
Reincarnation,
reaching the state of Samadhi
Middle Eastern beliefs, etc. etc,
It was a time to explore the unexplored
and to do away with the
boring concept of Christianity.
There had to be something better out there.
Please note that I was brought up a Catholic for 18 years.
Something was wrong and I had to go find out about
God.
(Ok...I handed my life over to FB in a nut shell...
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I even exhausted myself. You can tell that I am not a story teller.)
Well, now I can wake up in the morning and say,
Good Morning Jesus...
Good morning King of all Kings...
Good morning Holy Spirit
with a blessed peace
in my heart and mind.
I am no longer in need of stimulants and esoteric beliefs.
I found the true Jesus of the Bible.
Pastor prompted me to write about this because for those of you that are still searching and really want to find God
I want to tell you that He exists.
There is only one God
and
that is the
God of the Bible.
God the Father,
God the Son,
and
the Holy Spirit.
That is it!
It's simple
and not complicated.
I no longer need to do torturous rituals so that I won't have to come back as a pooch, or how about a turkey if I'm lucky.
All I have to do is to ask Jesus for forgiveness
and tell Him that I believe He is the Son of God
who came to this earth to die on the cross
for my sins.
That's it!
I WAS FORGIVEN
by his blood that He shed on the cross for me.
There is
zippo, nada.....left to do.
I have left my old ways, and now I'm a new person who wakes up happy in the morning.
I am no longer miserable like I used to be.
Phew...I used to be angry at the world...
NOT NOW!
Please note that we will always be sinners. I will NEVER become God and I am not a
God.
God.
When I sin I ask Jesus for forgiveness.
Pastor asked us to be prepared for the upcoming conflict that is to come. He told us that we need to go into prayer more than ever because the future is not going to be easy.
Let me tell you if I was not a Christian today,
I would probably not be alive.
But I am, because Jesus loved me sooooo much that He died on the cross for me.
I felt like I needed to share this with you
and
you know who you are.
I love you, and Jesus loves you.
HE'S CALLING YOU...
WHY DON'T YOU ANSWER.
iT'S NOT HARD.
