My life always seemed okay. I went about doing my thing. I didn’t see a need for making changes but there came a day when I met someone who made me question . . .
Suddenly, it seemed my life as I’d always known it lacked color. I hadn’t noticed it before.
I knew this man “knew something” I was missing out on . . .
This man had something I didn’t . . .
I began to pray for “some of that” in my own life . . .
He knew Jesus . . .
It was confusing at first, for I’d known about Him all my life . . .
The man I met and heard preach had something more . . .
I prayed some more and when I ran out of words, I heard His voice . . .
Knowing about someone is not the same as knowing Him . . .
The Lord wants to be close and personal with us . . . with me . . .
So I invited Him, and He was there waiting . . .
I saw His smile and tears in His eyes, just like the man who preached that day . . .
He had been waiting to get close to me since before my birth . . .
Suddenly, my life changed!
It had color where there had only been black and white . . .
It had new direction, patterns, where there’d been just flat land . . .
It still has challenges yet now He’s holding my hand . . . carrying me!
This is SO good, Martha!!

I sprung you and you weren’t the only one falsely toss in lockup, sis. Hugs! FYI – each time I try to respond to a comment which landed in spam, WP crashes on me. I reply to other comments with no problem, so the system error which got you there is somehow embedded (sp?) in your comment.

Beautiful Martha! And soooo true, knowing about a person is not the same as knowing the person and having a real relationship with them. Praying that things are going well for you, that you are feeling God’s glorious presence with you. God bless! – Amber

I sure am, thank you so much! I continue to pray for some pretty critical/immediate provision needs. I know He has a plan and I’m doing all I can to remain in step with Him!! Blessings to you Amber!

Nope, that’s good news–But I’m clueless about a “system error being embedded in my comments”. Should I just not comment, or what?
