God is Awesome -Part 2

Yes, indeed He is awesome. I can not say it enough, how I've being blessed for having Him in my life. How do I know, because life with Him is different. Before I let Him in my heart, life to me was good, and had no major issues, but I felt there was something more to life. I always believed God was our creator, and I prayed to him every night, since I could remember. However, I never thought that I can have such intimate relationship with Him, like I do now.
It's amazing what God can do in your life, once you start to see how He wants you to see. We tend to think that we mankind can handle life, because we were created superior than anything else on earth. We tend to think that our ways are the best ways. Why? because we have gifts(skills) as individuals, we are smart, innovative, rational, comprehensive, knowledgeable, and much more. However, we hardly give the credit for our accomplishment to God, and we believe that, it is our actions that make it happen; me, me and me. Yes, I have to take actions in order for things to happen in my life, but have you ever thought to yourself, why you? Why as an individual your are gifted as you are, and for what reason? Is it to be successful? to have riches? help others? to provide for your family? and of course, because you deserve it? After all that hard work! There is more to it than we think.
God has a purpose for each one of us. We are all individually wonderfully made. The gifts that God has giving me, are not the same in any other individual. When I have reached "success" in life, and God is not in the picture, at the end, it is not going to make you happy. I guarantee it! You will be successful, when you give the glory to God for the things you have, and the one's you do not have. Real Happiness Comes From God! How will you know, because He is real. He is your creator, and He wants you to be happy.
My experience with God started a few years ago, but even before then, He was knocking on my door. Just like he is now on yours. It dawn on me, that I never really knew God, that whatever I knew was based on family traditions, going to Sunday church, and whatever others, closer to me would have to say. However, I never did learn about God for myself, never meditated on the his Word, and or had any real close relation with Him. When I started to question God's existence, He answered me back. As you know the bible says, God is Almighty, Omniscient(all knowledgeable), and Omnipresent(everywhere), besides all that He is. So, he knows what my thoughts are, what my heart wants, and where I am. The bible says that I can not hide from God, He is present everywhere I could possibly go. So with this in mind, He saw, that my will, and heart were truly seeking an answer. Wow, did He ever answer. I placed my faith on God, and put it to action. From that day on, He has giving me plenty of proof that He is real. I can go back to my life, and say that I was blind for most of that time, but I can see many things now. Today, most things in my life that happened I know God was there, and were not just coincidence. The beautiful things that he has prepared for each one of us are waiting for us. We just need to proclaim them. We are no longer creatures of God, but Sons and Daughter of God. We have an inheritance, and many blessings that are ours. Where to find them, and how to claim them is simple. Ask God to help you, sincerely open your heart, and tell Him. Lord you are my creator, my heavenly Father, come into my heart, guide me, I want to proclaim all the wonderful promises you have for me and my family; forgive my sins, in the name of His son Jesus, AMEN!
I really hope you make the decision to follow God. His way is the True way; his word says, I am the truth, the way, and the life. I can only tell you from my experience, that I would never trade my God, for anything else in this world. You have to see it for yourself. You have to make it happen. We have a will, and the freedom to make the right choice, or the wrong choice. I pray, God blesses you today, and always, and for him to give you the strength, wisdom, and faith to face whatever comes. God is not as far as you think. There is no sin BIG ENOUGH, that he can not forgive, if you repent, and give your heart to him.

Part 1 if you haven't read it :) Awesome God

God Bless!

17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. Romans 8:17


Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD.”And you forgave the guilt of my sin. Psalm 32:5


7 Where can I go from your Spirit?Where can I flee from your presence? 8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. 9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, 10 even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.  Psalm 139:7-10


6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6
