"You are the light of the world, A city set on a hill cannot be hidden." - Matthew 5:14
It's been a while since I've posted one of these, and I'm not proud of it. I've been falling behind but thank God I'm done. I am now focused on Christ. <3
Lately, life has been throwing obstacles in my path and I've been letting them come between me and my God. I've let these obstacles separate me from the person who matters the MOST in my life. Recently I've put my foot down, and decided that this has to stop. I've drawn the line. Not in sand, but in concrete...it can not be changed. My mind is made up. God is MY God. &Nothing is worth getting in the way of my walk with Christ.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." - Proverbs 3:5-6
I have made a personal decision that I will follow the Lord all of the days of my life. I will not turn away. If I rely on other people or myself for my happiness, I will be let down every single time. If I rely on God for my happiness, I will never be let down, and I will be happy all the days of my life. I have been reading the bible and praying once again every morning, and I feel like a new person. <3
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Psalm 119:105
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. - James 4:7
I have recently completely submitted myself to God. I feel so much happier, and once again I am enjoying life. I have new people and people who have always been there for me in my life, who are helping me in my walk with the Lord. Some may not know it, but I look up to them with my whole heart and I aspire to be like them someday. My parents are the most supportive people I know and they're my best friends. I respect them with all my heart and I thank them for everything I have in life.
People may look at me different, as I know I am not a typical 18 year old. But in reality, when everything comes down to it, I don't care. I am not ashamed of my God, I love him with all of my heart and no one will ever take his place in my heart.
For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes. - Romans 1:16
I love the Lord with all my heart, and nothing will ever stop me. Make the Lord number one in your heart, and just watch how much your life changes. <3
*My mind is set on the Lord my God. Forever and always (:
