God is Awesome -Part 4

There is no place like home is one of my favorite sayings. What is home to me? It's not just the structure, the house, but what God has given me. A home full of his love and mercy, a husband that love's God and seeks God as I do. This is what I am thankful for no matter where I am, the values and the fear of God in my home. We are not perfect in any shape or form, but we handle most, if not all situations knowing that God is our guide, our redeemer, our Heavenly Father that wants the best for us, and blesses us. I give thanks to God for all I have and don't have, for he knows what is best for me. Life is not easy, but with Christ as our guide I can guarantee you it is much easier to handle things when afflictions come to our home or life. Every single tear he will wipe from your face, and he will be your strength when you cannot go on.
I know life can be stressful, scary, and painful. Not knowing what is next in life, working endless hours, having all the things you want, or the other way around, no matter what the issue is at the moment, we all have problems. However, how you see life matters and affects what your path is and will be in life. I ask myself why do I do what I do, is there a purpose? Behind everything we do there is a purpose, most likely it involves your goals, and family. There is nothing wrong to pursuit happiness in material things, self improvement, love, and spiritual aspects. God is good and wants the best for us. However, what I think is best for me, most probably is not what God thinks. You see, there is a wonderful purpose in life for every single one of us. God has a plan for your life, just like he has one for me. By using logic and reason, the only way I can understand what my real purpose in life is through our Creator, is getting to know him. No matter if you have reached your goals or not, life will always have a calling from God. There is an emptiness in my heart and your heart that nothing in this world will fulfill it, not money, not pleasures, not fame, not people.
Once I understood and accepted that my way is not the right way, I have allowed God to guide me, I can tell you something, Life Makes So Much Sense. I have open the door of my heart to Christ, now he lives in me. Giving my life to Jesus Christ has been the most wonderful experience and have never, will never regret it. I asked myself, what is there to loose? I have gained so much more!
Life is a roller coaster, it has its ups and downs. We never know what to expect. You see with God as my guide, I know he will not let me fall, and if I do fall, He will be there to pick me up. You see, God is always there, there is no place you can hide from God.  He keeps an archive of our life on this earth and he will read it to you one day. We have been giving the chance to make our own decisions, no matter where life has taken us, we know good from bad, right from wrong, love from indifference. I choose God, God is Love, and so much more. Just like everything else in life, giving your heart to Jesus Christ is the first step. How will I know what his purpose for me is, prayer, his word, and going to his house, church. Believe me through His Holy Spirit he will guide you and show you the way. For the Father in heaven knows what is best for you. The bible is the map of life. All you need to know and want to understand about life is in His word. You are new in him, no matter what your past is, as long as you are living, you have the opportunity to be saved by Christ the Lord. What best decision to make than to know and have the assurance that God is your Lord and that he will provide. He loves you, for he gave his one and only Son to die in the cross for your sins and my sins, so we can have life for eternity in His Glory. His blood cleanses us from all sin and Christ has risen to defeat death.
I pray you open your heart to God now and truly seek him. You will not regret it, ever. People that have made the decision to follow Christ have never regret it, but I know people that have rejected Christ and have regret it. The Pleasures of this world are temporary, but our decision to follow Christ is eternal.

God Bless
