glory be to GOD who is the head of my life! i have known HIM for so long, yet i feel like we just met! after an agonizing heartbreak regarding a church and leadership, i felt so unworthy of HIM. i felt like GOD really didn't want me because i wasn't good enough, wasn't righteous enough, i wasn't salvation material. i only partially survived that devestation. part of me was dead.
i never rededicated to the gospel as i had then. i felt like i had given my all and i was rejected. several years later, i was crying out in the spirit and later i found that my spirit was crying "i'm unworthy."
but now i know that's where is grace comes in. i can't earn HIS love, or salvation, or merit HIS forgiveness in any way.
my biggest scar from such a deep wound is trusting again. not trusting GOD, but trusting in other people and in my calling. i don't know where HE wants to lead, but i know i want to follow.
i know the HOLY SPIRIT is transforming more now than ever before.
i am so excited about where HE'S leading and taking me.
my heart's desire is to become part of a small bible study/prayer group here in belleville illinois that is rooted in brotherly love and deeply connected to on another.
also, i look forward to my friends here!
thanks for all the support.
