CHOOSE

This last week has been so crazy. Up and down. One step forward a few back. But I gotta give a shout out to the Lord above for answered prayers. I have been praying daily for several people and I am seeing His hand in their lives and it is wonderful. I am just as excited as if it were my life. 

Today I got heckled for being "all God like" Righteous or whatever.  The thing of it was the person said something foul, not about me or even to me and it was immediately like "oh I better watch it Jennifer is here"  I really didn't know how to take it. I didn't know whether to be offended or feel glad that the change in my life was noticeable. Why do people think a relationship with Jesus means a boring life, like they'll never have fun. I am not perfect, but I LOVE life and I LOVE my life. I have and will fall so short all the time, and I can't tell you the guilt I feel because of that, however, Romans 8:1 tells me that there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" So why do I feel guilt, shame and condemnation? It's not from the Lord. Oh and fear, let's not ever go there. That is not from the Lord either. It's that evil that wants to keep me bogged down. Thank God that He is a loving, good God full of mercy. I pray I can be a more loving person full of mercy.

I keep trying. It's not easy. There are days when I feel so BG, beginning in God and there are days when I feel so close to Him.  We were just talking about easy. Have you noticed that everything great and worth having does not come easy. It takes work, determination, and dedication. And all three of those things comes down to one word....CHOOSE. Either we choose to or not to do whatever.

I CHOOSE to always give my BEST, the very BEST and let HIM do the REST.
