God is My Best Friend
W ho is always there when I am depressed? Who is always there when I am angry, worried, embarrased, overwhelmed, and feeling guilty? When I feel like no one cares about me, who is there? When I feeling like ending my life, who picks me up and says "I love you, and it is not time for you to stop living?"
Who is always there when I am happy, excited, proud, and elated? Who is always there when I accomplish something great and there to help others?
Wow! When I think of those questions, I am in awe! I realize that I am never alone, even when I feel alone, because God lives in my heart. He has, since I accepted Jesus Christ at 22 years old. Even though I have failed him time and time again and turn my back on him a many, as well, He never leaves me. He continues to listen to me, he continues to answer my prayers (a lot of times I don't see His answers or He answers in a way I can't understand yet), He loves me unconditionally!!!!
As I age, I lo
ok back and see how much I have changed, for the good and the bad. I have matured and don't make some of the mistakes I use to. However, I still make some of the same mistakes and new ones. LOL But, I can look back and see how much my relationship with God has grown, by seeking Him more in my life. Sometimes, I feel far from God and that scare
s me. It is like I am in the middle of an ocean swimming to seek land and all I see is water. But, as I swim and swim and swim, I discover what I had been swimming for. God knows the struggle I went
thru. He knew it long before I was in the middle of the ocean. He did not let me drown and he never will!! Thank you, Father, for your mercy. Thank you for loving me and saving me from my sins. I ask you to please be with everyone in the EP community by comforting those who are feeling lost and defeated. Cover them with your unconditional Fatherly love. Also, I ask, if there is anyone out there that does not know you, Father, please reveal your Holy Spirit to them. In Jesus name, Amen.
