we are forgiven. The one who remembers our past sins and transgressions is Satan. We are not his children
so what God says is what count. We do not have to ask for forgiveness for the same sin over and over, unless
we are committing that Sin again. We must remember that God will not strive with us and He is not to be
played with. I love God because I am his child , forgiven and my name is written in the Book of Life.
I haven't found a church yet, as I don't get out much. Since my Mother passed in '95, losing my best and dearest friend, and the other friends all moved away, as life goes, I more or less pulled inside myself with my grief. I did try to make new friends, but I do not seem to be the person I was, and just couldn't get past or trust my aching heart. So I just kept to myself. I know now that I should have gotten some grief counseling, as I ended up have carotid artery surgery and then a tripe by pass, which really brought me down, and that is a very long story.
I did buy a bible, however, after I found this site, although I am not sure I am getting much out of it. But I am going to do as Mishael suggested and start at the end...John. I say my prayers most every night, the RC Act of Contrition, The Hail Mary, the Lords Prayer, and end with the Glory Be, like on the Rosary beads. I am now starting to wonder about the Hail Mary. I have listened to The Growing Awareness, on Utube as well as GoodDog. And have heard so much stuff that quite frankly amazes me, and they claim it's all in the bible. Some is quite amazing and uplifting, some seems a little frightening, and some, I really cannot quite wrap my arms around.
The Satanic stuff really scares me. And the human trafficking is overwhelming. But since learning about the vatican etc...I am really glad that I got out of that. I believe my eyes are open now to a lot of the things that I did not see.
One thing I do know, is that God is great and he has been with me through my trials. I know that now. He has been leading me where I believe he wants me to go, and he has healed me when I needed it most. God Bless.
he never change
he is our guide
our ever present helper
HE IS THE REASON I LIVE TODAY
GLORY TO HIS HOLY NAME
I "died" after a horrific motorcycle accident while in the hospital. (Since I am alive now one could argue that I did not actually "die" and therefore it was a NDE but I will leave that debate alone.)
When my soul left my body I was pulled straight to The Light. (First I went through what I can only describe as Space at a million miles a second.) I did not see or witness any angels or "beings" taking or guiding me. As I approached the light His voice stopped me. I was given an instruction and was allowed to respond. He then appeared(I was allowed to see Him but not His face) said five words and sent me back.
Maybe this helped, maybe not. Since I did not "permanently die" maybe my experience differs from the specific nature of your question.
That event helped me though. It saved my soul!
If anyone sees this and has any doubts within themselves..Jesus Christ IS real and the love I felt in that "moment" will never be forgotten and is uncomprehendable. There is nothing on Earth that compares to the power and love within His presence.
I would also like to add that this occured when I was the biggest sinner I have ever been in my life. If you(anyone reading) believe you aren't good enough for Jesus, you are and he loves you more than you can understand!
Amen!
1. Holiness is the habit of being of one mind in God, according to how it's described in Scripture. It is the habit of agreeing in God's judgment, hating what He hates, loving what He loves, and measuring everything in this world by the standard of His Word.
2. A holy man will endeavor to shun every known sin and to keep every known commandment.
3. A holy man will strive to be like our Lord Jesus Christ. He will not only live the life of faith in Him and draw from Him all his daily peace and strength, but he will also labor to have the mind that was in Him and to be conformed to His image ( Rom. 8:29). Christ was a faithful witness for the truth; that He came not to do His own will; but His Father's will.
4. A holy man will follow after meekness, patience, gentleness, patience, kind tempers, government of his tongue.
5. A holy man will follow after temperance and self-denial.
6. A holy man will follow after charity and brotherly kindness
7. A holy man will follow after a spirit of mercy and benevolence towards others.
The greatest misery of a holy man is that often when he would do good "evil is present with him"; that the old man is clogging all his movements and, as it were, trying to draw him back at every step he takes ( Rom. 7:21). But it is the excellence of a holy man that he is not at peace with indwelling sin, as others are. He hates it, mourns over it and longs to be free from its company. The work of sanctification within him is like the wall of Jerusalem-the building goes forward "even in troublous times" ( Dan. 9:25).
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."
From google:
On earth peace, good will toward men.
He's saying we can experience peace in our souls, peace with the Lord and peace toward our fellow humans. God's intentions toward us are kindly, and if we take that revelation to heart, it will enable us to show good will toward our neighbors.
Now this part its me and the holy spirit writing:
So when we have a peaceful mindset, and have peaceful feelings in our hearts, we will have a better life and joy, because the joy comes from God, and what better peace and joy than that? And actually having peace and joy help us to be better to others, and be nicer to them an have good wills towards them. /and we would create a good environment around others. And God will helps us to always be there, where we need to be, if we are on his ways, and he fills us up with his peace and joy.
And every day we should be thanking God that he gave hos only son to die for us, and go through all that pain for us to save us, and that he thought of us first because he loved and loves us. We should love God because he loves us first, and because of who he is, and because our God is awesome, and really cool, and his everything good, because our God has nothing to do with evil, but with good only, and that what he wants for us, good only in our life.
Bye, God bless you all.
NOTE to self( and for others).:
We should always ask God for guidance, help, and direction so we wont be lost in this world. And we should ask God to help us fear him, but the fear of God is not fear that you are scared of him like you are scared of bad things, the fear of the Lord is the fear that of knowing that he is very powerful, and can do anything. is doing what he sends us o do because he is very powerful, so he doesn't get so he doesn't destroy us for not obeying hi, or punish us. But the lord always has mercy on everybody. And with the bad ones, and he forgives and has patience with them for a long time. So we need t always go in the path of the truth, and ask the Lord for guidance.
He is the way all need to follow.
He is the truth, that all must believe.
He is the life, without him year are dead.
Without Christ, beloved is vanity. He is the source, so why look unto servants?
O. T prophets did their assignment and rest. He who assigned them came in flesh and gave us salvation: fulfilling all the requirements to save mankind.
If you have the spirit of Christ, you are sealed of God.
So continue in faith, knowing this.
Comes what may...all is well with my soul.
Love to you all in Jesus Christ. Amen.
