  Today I was talking with a friend of mine and it feels so good that I can relay how I really like the changes God has placed in my life this past year. In my journey I discovered I was the biggest problem in my life. I’m not trying to sound spiritual in any way shape or form, but God is shaping me into a totally different person. The things I love to do are totally different, the things that I find funny are totally different. I don’t have to be the center of attention to make people like me because most of my life I thought I was unlikable. God has shown me how to love myself and not hate who I am. That makes all the difference in the world. So I’m telling you all this, because I’m finding that my relationships with other people are so much better now https://www.intentionalguy.com/

This story proves that no matter how off-course our lives go, we can still find our way back to God… and He’ll love and forgive us. Many people feel thrown away by friends, loved ones, those they once cared about, and sometimes, even by God. Sometimes the trajectory of our lives lead us away from the Lord, His guidance, and His word. And sometimes, getting back on track and rediscovering His love feels like an impossible task. Author Michael L. Chestnut bares his life’s story in this deeply moving, poignant tale of how one such child of God lost his way—and found his way back into God’s grace. If you’ve ever felt lost, off-course, cast aside, or thrown away, then this book is a must read for you. It’s time to rediscover God’s love for all of us; even when we make mistakes. He loves all his children; even those who choose to stray. Life isn’t perfect and neither are you. God loves you anyway and this story of one man’s journey will prove it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PHJS848 https://
Michael Chestnut has spent the last 15 years rebuilding his relationship with God, his character and reputation after losing everything. As the youngest of three Pastor’s children, he’s been in ministry for over 21 years. He’s served as a Youth Minister, Music Director, and Associate Pastor. He has also spent the past 13 years guiding men from incarceration back into society. Now he’s dedicated to helping others navigate the pitfalls the modern world cleverly disguises. Armed with his own story of God’s forgiveness, he knows he’s well equipped to help others avoid his mistakes. Michael is a husband, father, and proud grandfather as well as a writer and speaker. He readily admits that even though he was a pastor or youth minister for years, he didn’t fully understand what it meant to walk with God until he was brought to his knees. Taking what he’s been through to help others brings him joy and peace and the Hope he has found in God is all powerful—too powerful not to share with the wor

GREAT DAYS! I am so happy these days as each day a little bit more of clarity is brought into my life. I really enjoyed my small group last night as these are people who have been great examples of who I long to be. It amazes me that we each seem to have similar struggles, maybe all in a different way but similar as in finding our relationship with Christ. I gain strength from their knowledge and victories in their lives. It is good to enjoy life again and even though I know I will continue to have struggles and bad days, it is nice to have the good ones. The Great Days are getting more and the bad ones are getting fewer.
