Goodbye my previous brothers and sisters

[Jonah2005bt]

Thank you all very much for your posts. All of them were well thought out, and I did take the time to read each one. I have tried to return to God, and I am struggling to come out of all of the sin I let into my life. It is common practice now for me to sin everyday in numerous ways, and blaspheme and not care, and not even think twice about any of it. I have definitely drifted very far from my once good relationship with God.

Last night I think for the first time I started to understand God, and how he was trying to work in my life before I blew everything and began to be angry with him. We had a small conversation, and I believe God has been chastening me with sicknesses since I have left him. I have experienced several, each worse than the previous, and I just get that idea, that feeling, that they are God's way of punishing me (which is fine).

So my friends, I ask for your prayer, that God mends what only he can, our relationship. That he not hold his anger on me for too long, as I genuinely am sorry, and trying my best to repent. Any prayer is appreciated, and thank you all for your prayers so far, and your reading, and posts on this thread.

Do you love GOD?

And if you do, then what is it that keeps on the wrong path?

I think I understand how you feel. Because I want to be right there for GOD, I want to be HIS right hand as Jesus is.

I want to do things right. And I know of GOD'S Rules & Regulations & realize they are not that hard to live up to.

But sadly, there are obstacles that stand in my way.

I will not give up, though! That mountain can't be that hard to clime!

I love GOD! I hope in HIM & trust in HIM & HIS Son Christ Jesus.

And what ever it is that makes me week - my love for HIM with HIS love for me will keep me strong.

I talk to HIM everyday & I keep hoping that someday I will be free from what ever it is that keeps at a distance from GOD. From Worshiping HIM & living according to the ways HE wants us to live in Worship to HIM.

But there is one thing for sure that can never be taken away from me, and that is my Love for GOD - no-one can take that away.

HUMBLE AS A CHILD.

The fruit of the Spirit is meekness.


The meek ... shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the
poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

The ornament of a meek and quiet spirit,.. is in the sight of GOD of great price.

Charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.

Follow after meekness. Take MY yoke upon you and learn of ME, for I am meek and lowly in heart.

HE was oppressed and HE was afflicted, yet HE opened not HIS mouth: HE is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so HE openeth not HIS mouth.

CHRIST also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow in HIS steps: who did no sin, neither was guile found in HIS mouth: who when HE was reviled, reviled not again,... but committed himself to HIM that judgeth righteously.

AMEN and AMEN
