My Walk With God

Alicia Reed · Sunday, November 9th 2008 at 4:40PM · 190 views
Today I asked myself..."Had I stayed closer to God would I be a working, wife, mother, and college student?"

After writing an email to a church member and pouring the hurts of my heart out to her, I felt refreshed and as though I am on my way to another level of my blessed life. Things aren't the way I dreamed they would be. Nevertheless, I've been blessed with the gift of perception, and I'm able to find the good in what I've been blessed with thus far.

I know God has intended goodness in abundance for me. He has placed the feeling in my heart and soon it will be an reality. Regardless of the state the world maybe in now.

Today, I've decided to return to he who loves me most. I'm truly blessed to have such a forgiving God whose heart and arms are always open to me.

The ironic thing is...I've spent so much time dealing with men who I would meet at random places and those relationships never seemed to work. Now I have to ask myself..."Is God trying to tell me those relationships aren't working because those men weren't found in the place which I should and need to be? In God's house..."CHURCH". So off I go to return home where peace in abundance awaits me.

Alicia way to go sister! I am so very happy for you and I pray that you will keep your eyes and ears on God, because He will not lead you astray.

I am and have been at that place for awhile. I got married thinking that it was the right thing to do and in God's plan for me. Well it didn't quite work out. I am glad you realize that where we need to be is in God's house and in and doing His will. Being good is not enough. I am looking for a church and it has been so hard. I still study the Word, pray, and seek His will. But I cannot find a church that I am comfortable in. What is wrong?

Tracey,
Doc is right. Ask the Lord to lead you to a church home. Although I attend church regularly, I am not 'into' churches. I think it's important to attend because the scripture says to not to forsake the assembling together, but for me the most important thing for me is my relationship to God through reading His Word, praying the Word, and praising Him in song. Many churches are disappointments and it is best not to get 'caught up' in the hype, but get caught up on the message of Jesus.

WOW!!!! Almost a year later. Another dead end realationship and broken hearted once again. I'm beginning to believe being alone is what's intended for me. Just work and school. I'm even wondering if God is even there. I'm so sick of ppl preaching positive and not supplying actions with their words. PPl spend so much of their time trying to say the right things but forget to appear right. SMH. Yes, I'm hurt and I'm angry. This too shall pass. The reality is I'm the poster child for "ALONE". Thank God I'm not the dead end everyone thinks I am. Keep sleeping on me. The joke is on you.
