Rev! I don’t even know where to start. I finally found what I have been searching for this whole time! The missing part of myself that I thought I lost. It was in me the whole time – “peace of mind”. That’s why I felt so empty and lost and now that I found it, not only am I truly happy with myself, but I am also happy by understanding my relationship with God. I now understand my existence and my purpose. I am here to serve GOD for his purpose and not my own.
The feeling of knowing who I truly am is a blessing, I feel whole and complete! Now, I understand why people suffer, why they go around killing other people, why they kill themselves. Because they are lost and haven’t found true happiness. It’s not what’s out there, it’s about the only thing that you do have, “yourself” and your relationship with God. God is where happiness comes from and God is where love comes from. When we revert back to the person God made us to be, then we can begin to understand that this isn’t about us living for ourselves, but about living for God.
This is the blessing that Christ gives to us by sacrificing himself for our sins. So that we may turn away from the sin of mankind and have a chance to become our “true self”. It is becoming able to live for God’s very will, for Him and not for ourselves. If we don’t become our true-self and we accept the corrupted “sin self”, then we are not living for God’s will, but for the will of our own. We are taking control over our own life with our own hands thinking that this is what we need, when in truth, God gives us everything that we already need. Thinking that we need more of something that God has already given us is a complete sin!
Rev, I feel as if my understanding about people, about myself and about God is so great to this point that I must somehow help people understand who they truly are in Christ. I really do feel that I have to pray to God in thanks for bringing you into my life because you helped me find God. Thank you!
You’re more than welcome! You’re the reason I do what I do.
