Step 3

Postby Faithandlove » Thu Nov 03, 2011 8:58 am

Well, because of my decision yesterday, that no matter what, I will serve the Lord, today I am feeling 'so-so'. I should have woken up joyous this morning, but I didn't. There is this 'nagging' in my spirit. After completing step 3, the grace of God, I'm even more concerned because of what it said. I know that God forgives and can and will fix problems, but what about those that I have created, even by mistake, deception or a moment of weakness? That's whats' got me worried, because I created one.

Waiting to see how it's all going to pan out, is.......the hard part. But only God will be able to fix it now.

The goings' ons' in my spirit is just sufficating! I need to repeat step 2 today.

His grace IS sufficient. Even for those problems. He is huge and His grace is huge. You can be joyful in knowing you are forgiven. *Clap*

*angel7* Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us.

Hello Faith

Glad to see you on this path , toward freedom , by freedom . I mean in terms of "You shall know the Truth ... " and ... it is the Truth that will set us free right ? Not us , or what we think of ourselves and , yes , the mistakes we have created for ourselves and by ourselves . And you know what else ? You have , already discovered a ruth or two about yourself , in your words ..."God forgives and can and will fix problems, but what about those that I have created, even by mistake, deception or a moment of weakness? That's whats' got me worried, because I created one."

Yes , indeed , God CAN and Will fix ALL problems , including the ones we "created" . All we have to do is to let go of the reigns and ask Him to take over .


You're on the right track , ... keep up the good works .

Luv ya
In Christ , our Lord

wooohooo....God is so good.

Faithandlove...His Grace IS sufficient. Oh, the beauty He brings from our ashes. His sacrifice was for you...for me....for every mistake...every mess we have made. That is the beauty of it. And, those mistakes....He also uses for His glory. He touches people through us, through the forgiveness and love and healing we have received from Him....from our mistakes.

He is so good. He loves you so much. He loves you so completely. So unconditionally. He sees you through the perfect love He has for you. *JesusSign*

When our child makes a mistake, we hurt for them. We teach them. We still love them. Nothing a child of mine could do could ever change my love for him. And, God's love is more perfect...more unconditional. Its so hard to imagine that kind of love. It blows my mind completely *BigGrin* This is His love for you.

Keep going, sis.

God bless you, too...and we are praying for you.

In Jesus,
love momo *Halo*
