Finding God

Have you ever felt like been missing something out of your life? Using relationships with the opposite sex to feel whole, buying material things more than you need, always trying to overcompensate to feel appreciated? Well this was me. Have you been stuck in an emotional rut longer than you realized? Well welcome to my world. It's hard to describe the full extent of what I've been going through emotionally because I'm still trying to sort things out. Fortunately day by day I grow more and more in God's image. Since I've found God, everything makes since now.

In November, I started attending Victory World Church, right outside of Atlanta, GA. Before I started going there, I always have brief moments with God, a shaky relationship; kind of like being friends with benefits, but not a real relationship. But ironically, I put my all into my friendships and relationships with people who continuously let me down. And I honestly got tired of it. Sometimes it takes getting things taken out of your life for you to wake up and find God. I realized we can't put our faith into people, we're all human and can't expect a human made of flesh to the perfect being in our lives....Jesus is that perfect being. The only one that can complete me. The sooner I surrendered to him, the sooner I got peace of mind and begin to see things clearly in my life and relationships. I then decided to be accountable for my actions and become committed to growing my relationship with God. That's what I love about my church, they really make you want to look at yourself in the mirror, take some responsibility, and make the Lord happy....and in turn, you'll gain everlasting life.

The sooner you realize how temporary life is, how we are not of this world, just in it. The sooner bigger problems become little problems in your life. Life, my friends, is just a dress rehearsal for what is to come. When you face God he will ask you 2 questions: 1) What did you do for Jesus? 2) What did you do with the gift I gave you? What will you say. I'm working on my answers now....God Bless
