I haven't written anything in a while. Unfortunately my school work has taken over my life it would seem. I have little interesting to report.I am so blessed though to have a family that loves me, and most of all, my Savior. I am always amazed at the Love that He has for me.
I have been taking a Bible course and we have recently been going through the Old Testament. I learned a lot about the historical aspects of the Old Testament that I didn't know before. It has given me so much more from my daily Bible time. I see so much when I put what I am reading and the relationship I have with Christ in perspective with the Old Testament and the Law. Jesus radically changed everything! I suppose I take that for granted. Today I was reading Hebrews 12:18-24 How can I even imagine a life where I could not go to Jesus with everything?
I was saved at a very young age. Ever since I was just a little girl I would spend a great deal of time just talking to God. I suppose most people would think my conversations with God were silly but I never thought so. I always knew that He heard everything I said no matter how small it might seem. Now I call those times when I just spend some time, not asking not singing praises or reading but just being with Jesus, my Jesus dates. There is nothing like it. I am loved by the same God that was virtually inaccessible to the Israelites on an individual level and I get to talk to Him whenever I want and the more the better!
He is jealous for me,
loves like a hurricane I am a tree
bending beneath the weight of His wind and mercy
And all of a sudden I am unaware of these afflictions
eclipsed by glory
Oh, how He loves us!
And we are His portion and He is our prize,
brought to redemption by the grace in His eyes
If grace is an ocean,
we're all sinking
Heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss
my heart beat violently inside of my chest
and I don't have time to maintain these regrets
when I think about they way He loves us!
About Me
- healingrose
- There is a lot to say but very little that matters. First I am madly in love with Jesus Christ. I came to a personal relationship with Him at a very young age, grew up in church my Dad has been in the ministry for most of my life. Right now he is the pastor at Lighthouse Baptist church (Alva Doomy) not the old pastor. Before that my family was on the mission field in far Eastern Russia for 5 years. That is where my big missions call comes from I would say. I love the field the closeness with God, actually doing something to bring people who have never heard to the knowledge of Jesus Christ. There is nothing like it. It's the driving force behind everything I do. I'm in school hoping to get into the medical field so i can get into a country so I can give them the love of Jesus. My heart breaks to think of so many who don't know Him. I dream of their faces, often I'll wake crying hating the time I can't be there. I know God put missions in my heart I trust that in his time he will work it all out. As of now that is what I'm about, getting the means to that end. Pray for me!
