Great is thy faithfulness =) It isnt because Ive always done what was right Lord knows. I am loved on continually and extended mercy and grace by my Father. Im so happy that my life was spared in my time of denial. My prodigal thinking. And foolish ways. Do I believe that Jesus Christ has and forever will reign on high? Yes I do. Do I want to see my King when my time is up in this body and hear Him say Well done thy good and faithful servant? Yes I do. Ive tried drinking, Ive tried substituting my ladies love for Christ love, Ive tried getting high to feel good, Ive even impatiently tried to pursue my own music career. But at the end of the night when the high wears off , the liquor has left my system in the morning, my ladies love fades, and the record stops spinning after my show. I realize that my soul was empty, my thoughts continued, meaning no peace. I watched friends along with myself buy drink after drink but couldnt answer why we drink. Is life that borrowing, because we were all given natural charisma as well as a sense of humor. Then I thought to myself WOW! Ive had a relationship with Jesus Christ and I know how Ive felt when dedicated to Christ. Definitely NO HANGOVERS, NO SEARCHING FOR A BLUNT BEFORE BREAKFAST AND BED, NOT MISSING WONDERING IF IM PLEASING MY LADY OR MAKING HER HAPPY ENOUGH TO SUSTAIN OUR RELATIONSHIP. HMM.. But rather, Ive had peace of mind, soft sleeping throughout the night, and as far as a relationship is concerned. I know that Jesus loves me for who I am, forgives me when I say Im sorry without holding a grudge, and will always be there for me and can relate with any pain,problem,situation, Im experiencing day to day. Hes my provider, so why would I run away from actually my true love. My confidant. And my strength when no one else cares or understands me. My protector when Im living in His will and out of His will. Thats Mercy and sure nuf is Grace. =) I realized that a real man is a man that isnt ashamed that he is a follower of Christ, and isnt ashamed to let his life exemplify just that.. =) It was so amazing how my kids lit up like Christmas morning when I rededicated my life to Christ. I wondered why?? Then I realized that its actually normal for our souls to rejoice and be glad when we have a close relationship with Christ. So whether I make a mistake tonight or tomorrow. Im going to hold on to Jesus until my time is up on this earth. Which no man or woman knows the day nor the hour when your time will be up on this earth. Be encouraged. And keep me in your prayers. God is able and has already forgiven you if we could just forgive ourselves. youtu.be/48kRtw5PtCI
