pressing on
Though I haven't visited this site as often, I have a deep appreaciation for it. There is no room for popularity contest here people are people just sharing their lives from all over. I share experiences as well as partaking what others may share of their life's experience as a blood bought saved person in Christ Jesus.
God has richly blessed me beyond all measure, and many people do not take to kindly what God gives but if they would stop and listen to the Holy Spirit, God doesn't play favorites in His kingdom, When He says He will do it He will do it for whosoever who believes in Him, He shall surely do it. Enduring people who get uptight as I only share testimonies of His goodness in my life what I have always tried to do is offer up encouragement to those who are waiting on the Lord. It is sad that it only does opposite in many hearts and have tried to pull every trick possible to in turn discourage me by them saying, You need to give all you have to the poor ect, but, I give where the Holy Spirit tells me to, and offer up my life as a living sacrifice and do my all not to voice what I do because that can backfire as bragging ect.
Much of the strife and conflict I have endured is due to me being a single divorced mother of three teen sons, and that I am thriving independant of a man in my life. I have that Freedom in Christ that God promised me in His living word. I don't rely on the flesh of man, my help is in the name of the Lord just like King David lived by in his life. Most men online I have encountered who claim they believe in Jesus say I am not being biblical since women are to be submissive, and to me that is a big red flad considering I am not married to a man and the bible talks to the married women dealing with matters of the home and living a structured walk in Christ to place up boundaries and protection for their home. When they want to pick on me saying I need to submit to them, I tell them upfront, I am married to Jesus and He is both man and God and I am fully covered. Well they know I am right and they hate that and it wages war and thus online becomes a spider web on christian chat sites.
In my everyday walk in Christ offline, God empowers me to do well and to do good to others but online, I have endured more conflicting issues with many who call themselves believers in Christ. I have discovered their human side more then their love walk with Christ. I am not at all legalistic and I do not pose as being better than anyone else, I am not above my creator but Christ has made me His equal according to His word and promise that I may be one in and with him and those who are dwelling in that same love in His unfailing Word.
We are fearfully and wonderfully made as it says in the bible. I am unigue because God made me that way and God is brilliant and Epic so I am only an awesome likeness and image of Him alive in Christ. What more could I ask for? God beat me to the chase in offering me something I never would have thought of and that is to be one in and with Him. This is good news. People see the glory in my life but don't know the story and as I have share a few highlights of it, they sort of toss it to the side. Times where I offer my help to them, it is used and abused. This is mainly online experiences because in my everday life, I get better results to those I help around me, and yes there are some that didn't turn out so well, but I deeply appreaciated it when others in my life came along and helped me, I cannot help but want to do the same for others and I have learned alot about that verse to not toss pearls to swine. Thus I do not get even I just quietly walk away and place it in God's hands to perfect things that consern me. That is walking in Freedom in Christ. Things happen for a reason and people come and go in our lives but I am pressing on to cross that finish line so as later on in life God takes me home I will not return to Him void but accomplish what He sent me to do. Love you all in Christ.
