A SHORT ACCOUNT OF HOW I BECAME TO BE SANER THAN I WAS BEFORE... At a time when we get tired of the world, God is showing us that it is time to get to Him. At the time that I got tired of my world, God whispered to me and asked me if I knew where Id be going if I tried to end my life physically. I DIDNT. So I never thought about doing it again because I wanted to find out first. So I told God, wherever i may go, please help me see and understand the answer to my quest. It was a loooong, craaaazy, sometimes frustrating, sometimes joyful journey towards the answer. There was a time that I was, again, swallowed by the world and forgot my journey, until, again, God led me towards it. Sometimes God had to yank me out of the world, and boy that would hurt. But, as hard headed as I was, God was equally determined to get to me. And He inspired a loooot of people to help me, one way and another. Finally, I had to decrease my pride significantly, and humble myself and pray with a broken heart, before I could grasp the answer to my question. I am still not perfect. I am still a sinner and will always be a sinner but God has already poured His FREE GRACE on me, and I willingly, desperately, readily accepted it. This Grace was possible because Jesus came, lived His life according to Gods plan, died as a sacrifice (like the lambs and the doves in the Old Testament) for Gods creations sins, and resurrected to show the world that God is real. And now I know why I know where I am going: because I understood that I am always a sinner and I need the Grace to be saved from the consequences of being a sinner. Its a tough consequence, because its death, but through Grace received, we dont need to go through the consequence. This is LOVE from a powerful Being who refused to make us into robots but gave us FREE WILL instead. afterthought: THERE IS NO MORE BODY ON THE CROSS. IT IS AN EMPTY CROSS NOW. AND I CELEBRATE THAT EMPTINESS OF THE CROSS. HE HAS RISEN. THAT EMPTY CROSS IS A REMINDER TO ME THAT GRACE IS EVERYWHERE AS MUCH AS GOD IS EVERYWHERE, AND ALL WE NEED TO DO IS HUMBLE OURSELVES, PRAY TO GOD (CALL OUT TO GOD) AND HIS HOLY SPIRIT WILL COME UPON US LIKE A HEAVY RAIN. GRACE IS REAL. IT HAS BEEN MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE SACRIFICE OF ONE MAN, JUST AS IT DOES THROUGH THE SACRIFICE OF A LAMB, OR A DOVE, IN ANCIENT ISRAEL. IT IS IN THE BIBLE. WE COULD READ IT SO WE WOULD KNOW. WE ALL KNOW HOW TO READ, DONT WE? THANK YOU LORD FOR THE WORDS. ALL GLORY COMES FROM YOU, AND LIKE A BOOMERANG, GOES BACK TO YOU.
