I know for me and my life when I begin to tell others my story they kind of look at me and think that some how I am not telling them the truth..they think that I am kidding around or what not..and honestly they don’t believe me when I say certain things about my past..or who I used to be before I came to the Lord..because we all have a story..and I don’t know about you but the person in whom I use to be is not the same person in whom I am this day..sure I still could be that person if I so chose to..because we all can do anything whatsoever we ourselves choose to do in our lives..because the Lord our God gives freewill we all know that..but I don’t know about you but I couldn’t imagine me doing any of them things that I once use to do..I couldn’t see myself ever really even doing them things..because you know guys when we come to the Lord it tells us that them old things are past away behold all things have become new..2 Corinthians 5:17..were not the same person in whom we were and were not suppose to be..see the Lord changes us and daily actually were changed more and more into His image..but as well daily we all have to pick up our crosses and follow the Lord..Matthew 16:24..so don’t lose your story along the way in life..and don’t forget the person in whom you once was..because a lot of times others need to hear and even you yourself need to remember just where the Lord has brought you from to where you are today..for I believe that we could say if it had not been for the Lord where would we be?..Psalm 124:1-2..but Oh, Gods grace it is sufficient..2 Corinthians 12:9..for even while we were in sin He died for me and for you that we could have a life and have this life more abundant..Romans 5:8/John 10:10..for the word of God says that whosever will call upon the name of the Lord they shall be saved..Romans 10:13..so let us be thankful for all the Lord has done..and let us have compassion towards others and the struggles that their facing and going through..because if we ourselves choose to remember we were once there just as they are there now in their lives..so be a help to others..and be sure to remember as I said your story..because it sure does help someone else whom is facing the same types of things in their life to be able to get through it and know that they will get through it..Amen..just as you and I have gotten through it by the hand of the Lord and with His strength, guidance and protection..for our Lord is no respecter of persons..Acts 10:34..if He done it for me and for you..He will do it for others and their lives..for He loves each of us with that ever lasting love..Oh, what a Savior we serve..so walk in His grace..walk in His power..and walk in our Lord’s anointing..for it is the anointing that breaks the yoke and sets the captives free..Isaiah 10:27..and yet once again guys..loving all and not merely few..In Jesus’ name, I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
