Faith for today. Hope for tomorrow*
. .and do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable and perfect will of God. . Romans 12:2
I made a promise to myself, no actually a promise to God, that I would go back to church. I am happy to say, that I kept that promise, and plan to continue to keep it. I don't care how anyone feels about this post, because along with my family and friends, GOD has truly gotten me through a lot of my battle's. I have taken him for granted, and have lived a life, that I know has not made him proud. I was blind to how important it is, to have a healthy, relationship with the lord. Does this mean I am born again? No, this simply means that I realize that all things are done through him, and without him, my life was going down a wrong path. I have realized though, that he is teaching me a lesson; a lesson that I desperately needed to be taught. I am forever grateful, and will continue to ask him for strength to overcome these next few months, to accept what I cannot change, and to ask him to continue to help me walk as he would like me to. I know a lot of people are going to judge me for this post; it's human nature, it's society. Do I care? NOPE. God is the only being, that has lifted my spirits, when I thought I wouldn't make it to the next day. He gives me courage to know that things are going to be okay, and that's important.
I am hopeful for tomorrow, because I know that I am TRYING to become a better person. I am looking for direction, for guidance, and putting my faith into the lord, into things that are good. I am still the same person, but the only difference is I have seen HARD times. I know what its like to sit, and wonder how life got to this point. I love my life, I am so thankful for it, and all the people that are in it for the postive. I am even thankful for those that want nothing but to see my defeat. At least I know, I have people to prove wrong.
