Title: Remember John what your grandmother taught you
Post by: marilynb on August 21, 2011, 07:53:17 pm
Hi John
I don't know if you ever come into this forum to check out what people say, but one never knows.  My prayer partners and I are continously praying for you.  My hopes for you come from the scriptures of Numbers 6:24-26  "The Lord bless you and keep you, the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you.  The Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace."  In Jesus name I pray and thank Him for it.  Amen

Remember your faith roots John.  And I may add this too that making a mistake isn't the end of this world.  Not learning from our mistakes is a greater mistake than the original error.

The one thing you have to really ask yourself  "are you really happy?"  You know that people, places and things cannot fix you.  This cannot fill the emptiness in ones heart.  Denial is a luxury that no one can afford  I am sure that your grandmother told you this.  You may know alot of people however John how many of them truly are your freinds?

Through your gift and talents I know you have reached out and touched many lives.  
Don't you think its your turn now?  There is a vast difference between being fortunate and being blessed.

In order to obtain any true peace is to be set free from the bondage of self.  Only God could and would if He were sought.  The only way to do this is to turn your will and your life over to the care of God as you understand Him. You know this John.  Its a personal relationship that happens between you and God. It is so personal and so precious that noone can take that away from you.  Thats the beautiful part of the whole thing.  Only then will you finally become happy, joyous and free and have peace in your life.

One more thing never put God in a box, one can become sorely disappointed.  God does love you and there is nothing that you can do about that.

I know John that some of these things I have said your grandmother already spoke to you about.  Jesus is a liberator.  If you go back to your faith roots then you can call yourself a liberal.

Keep the faith / peace & love
