That’s What You Think

I haven’t blogged as much as I should lately. Not because I don’t have anything to say, but because I don’t have a convenient way to say it. I allowed someone to borrow my laptop for a time and it is difficult to compose and catch boo boo’s on my phone because, well, I’m getting older.  Haha

But, I did find something among my comments that I have failed to address. I hate pettiness. Hate it. So, basically I made a decision when I spotted it to let it go. I deleted it.

I’m in a different frame of mind now. I don’t feel like letting it go.

Iniquity is the WILLFUL choice to sin. And I did it. I made some very wrong decisions in my life and those decisions cost me in ways only me and Jesus will ever know.

And I found myself in a world of hurt and disappointment. Because I made wrong choices.

It was the best thing that ever happened to me.

Because I messed my life up I hit bottom. Guess what I found there?

The courage to look up. I lifted my head in the center of calamity and my redemption drew nigh.

The worst pain I have ever experienced has brought me the greatest joy. The destruction of me gave me faith I never had before. And courage I didn’t know existed in me.

I won’t go into great detail but I will say this. Because of this God spoke to me, I have seen miracles in my life that have increased my faith to unbelievable levels.

Yep, I went through it. But no need to feel sorry for me. God had a purpose and a plan. What you meant to harm me He meant for my good

Think what you want. I know.

Because of what happened souls were saved. Because of what happened lives were changed. Because of what happened to me God put me in a position to use me in a mighty way. My problems didn’t take Him by surprise.

I appreciate your concern but I know it wasn’t truly concern for me at all. It was an opportunity for you to thumb your nose at me at a point in my life where I was hurting. And that’s okay. I have learned from experience you never elevate yourself by climbing up on the heartaches of others.

Here is my question for you. What have YOU done to better your life? To dig yourself out of your situation? To make life better for someone else? There is pleasure in sin for a season, but seasons change. If you are so concerned for me did you pray for me? I hope that you did.

God has blessed me beyond measure. So know without a doubt YOU are in my prayers. I’m praying for you. That God will get a hold of you and pull you out of the pit of sin. That He will fill you with the Holy Ghost and make your story and testimony one of power to reach others.

You think you know me. But thank God that person doesn’t exist anymore. All that happened because of my choices is under the blood.  And I sit here tonight at peace.

God bless.
