Thank God for friends!

Yesterday I had two panic attacks and felt at one point like I was having a heart attack. My hands and toes were tingly and numb; I was finding it hard to drive home. I called a friend hoping he could just talk me through as I drove. This friend did one better; he met me for desert so we could unwind, then God allowed a wonderful thing to happen, we talked (that’s it, we just talked) what a wonderful thing to do openly, my shame and guilt fade when I am with this friend. This man is more than a friend, he brings me to God on a daily bases when I feel like the world is against me he shows me God’s grace, when I feel like my day is such a failure he shows me my victories. Thank God for friends!

God is so faithful to me even when I am not, He loves me when I feel unlovable, He brings me new friends when all else have left me. God I do not deserve the things you have done for me but I love you for loving me. Please never let me forget where you have brought me from or where I could have been. Thank you God for this deliverance you are granting me daily, please keep working on me even when I have stopped.

  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/

TRUSTING GOD, right now!

The last few weeks my Pastor has been preaching on the life of David, I never realized how screwed up (and like me) David was. Yet he was a man after Gods own heart only seeking through his own restoration to find a closeness with God. Pastor brought out how David knew if he was to find restoration he would only need to do one thing and that would be to trust God. I went to the alter today and told God I want true restoration and to fully trust him through all these things I have no power or control over and know that He will provide for me and take care of me. Well, after the service was done I went out to my truck to go home and it would not start, another man in the church tried to help me jump-start my truck but nothing. After a short period of checking out the engine and looking like I knew what I was doing (which I didn't) I thought I would try one more time to restart it and next thing I knew my truck catches on FIRE! Now I could really be discouraged and let this defeat me ...

He will also provide a way out

I am growing with each new day even through the midst of heartache and despair. I am learning to surrende r one day at a time to God so that I may glorify him; this is a new way of life for me that will take some time to fully learn but Iam surrendered to doing. Tonight I went to my SA meeting and shared with the guys about the sermon on Sunday and as I told them the story you could see the new guy across from me tearing up. On his face you could see him longing for what I had just experienced. Wow, it was not to long ago that I was sitting in his chair; my heart goes out to him! There were many triggers though for me as I went through out my day but the great thing about this is that I was able to see at the end of the day that God was there for me and I did not face these things alone. I am now beginning to understand the passage in 1 Corinthians 10:13 in the NIV tells us, “ No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted...
