Growth Toward Eternity

It's not About Me

It's all about Him~ Whatever God wants me to be, that is what I work toward. I am imperfect, but an overcomer of much, failing often in what I work to be like, more like Christ. I don't give up trust in the Lord, His Word & Faithfulness to complete a good work in me, rather I use the gifts He has given me for His glory & He manifests fruit of the Spirit as I sew seed to be reaped. I love discovering the Bible's mystery through a developed personal relationship, leading me in all I do, as I remain willing, trusting & lean not on my own understanding, being anxious for nothing through only His peace. I am a warrior against adversity, principalities, through scripture, prayer, wisdom, intercession, obedience, & discernment. I try to love, heal, teach, & give, extend grace & mercy for I have received these free gifts from Him, which no one can take away. I see myself as a shell, like an empty locust shell but when filled with God's power, the Holy Spirit, a promise of our inheritence as heirs & children of God, I am alive, strong, & ready to do whatever He leads me to accomplish, watching and feeling every moment, as even the slightest things matter to Him. So I listen, see, wear my spiritual armor, carry truth & kindness as a necklace bound around my neck, seek His Wisdom, more precious than jewels, & try to keep my head above water while caring for my family, self, others~dealing with possible life threatening &/or physically & cognitively disabling diseases, worsening & challenging me greatly every year.

A personal walk with Jesus Christ & experiencing promises come true over & over is stability.  I am a servent & would gladly step into eternity if He asked, but until then, it's growth toward eternity.You may accept Jesus in your heart... A savior who paid the debt, not to be bound by the old law, unforgiven, lost, & missing out on your purpose for life, but with freedom to find life, truth, everlasting connection to God, where you may enter His presense boldly, pure as white snow. Because of Jesus'gift of grace through God sending His Son to earth, a perfect human with no judgement or sin to make all just as if they never sinned~justified, set apart~sanctified, redeemed to spend forever with Him in Heaven. He sees only perfection through the wall of Jesus Christ, a living sacrifice. His death on the cross, for anyone to choose, is grace, a free gift.  He knitted you in your mother's womb with a purpose, an ordained path we all have the challenge to find & follow. Seek & you will find, the door will open to a hope & future, forgiven, with an abundant, meaningful life that satisfies the soul forever will be yours.

If you accept Christ as your personal savior today, it is important to find fellowship to help mold & direct you as you do have an adversary you may not know who seeks to destroy & so protection & guidance are needed, a good study bible, & a bible church to teach the Word of God, inspired by Him, real, all of it, even if understanding is not there, it will come. Most of what I spoke here is the Word, as it never comes back void. You may have many questions. A "bible church" is a great place to find, or something very similar as the scripture brings life, truth, & is like a double-edged sword that penetrates marrow & searches the heart of all, knows the heart, & the Holy Spirit knows what you need better than yourself, so pray for direction & find a place, people, reach out & discover your new life. Don't be disappointed if you see a bunch of imperfect people (we all are), but be cautious, as not everyone is on the same path, the narrow one, growing toward eternity. The wide path that everyone else is on leads to destruction, it is easy, fun, & feeds the flesh. But I am not here to judge, criticize, or point out negativities of others, as we are all on a different part of our "walk" with the Lord, & we are all differnt parts of "the body" of Christ with different purposes to discover.
