It's a shame that this phrase many times is used in the
negative. However, as a Christian, I have great excitement
with the Holy Spirit's indwelling that opens my heart and
mind to God's Love. He stirs me to want more of my
Awesome Holy Almighty Creator Savior God!
Those who do not personally know Jesus, have no idea
what Christians are talking about. That's the wonder of
God when I look back on my life. It's only in coming to the
Saving Grace of Christ that reveals Himself personally to
you. What an awesome relationship that faith in the only
Living God can bring to your life! As I grow in His Word,
the more He reveals His Truths. The more I grow in my
LORD, the less I'm interested in the ways of the world.
What becomes important is the Love of God in our
families, friends, and those we bring to Christ's
Saving Grace!
My earliest rememberance of the Lord in my
life was when I was four years old. I had been
playing with friends when they were called in
to eat lunch. I was supposed to have gone home,
but didn't. There was a metal Navy foot locker
we kids had been playing with and I decided to
climb in shutting the lid over me. In doing so,
the tongue fell over the slot locking me inside.
I couldn't get out! It was getting hot due to the
foot locker being in the direct summer sunlight.
After crying out, kicking, and pounding, the heat
turned my body into a saturated "ragdoll." I
began to get sleepy as it became harder to breath.
I remember a calmnest coming over me as I began
to pray to Jesus. The miracle is what happened
next! The mom and her children had been sitting
at the table beside the AC window unit. She says
she had a sudden feeling to check to make sure I
had gone home. When she opened the trailor door,
the first thing in her sight was...the foot locker.
