When I finally saw Jesus face to face, I began to see life as it is and should be, up close and personal…
I began to see beauty in simple things everywhere! Every breath, every smile, every gesture..
I started striving for truth and it slowly begins to emerge like a soft breeze blowing in just when I needed it most..
I saw Him in people places and little things that graced my days..
When I finally gave it all to God, He began to unveil Himself and His plan and slowly I started to see the gifts of His Holy Spirit
that you just don’t see beforehand..
I began to have Faith and life began to unravel and I just started to trust His Word and I yearned to apply it to every area of my life.. I began to trust His timing and will and I learned to strive for hope.. for the future and for more of Him in my life..
I began to smile more and it was for new reasons, and suddenly I realized just what living was all about..
I began to strive to share what I was feeling it was the best feeling I have ever felt, and serving Him wasn’t a question but just part of living out this great new relationship I had..
This is the experience I am living..I am not who I was..I am who God is creating new.. It’s a one day at a time every minute everyday.. Living for Him first..
I wrote this a few years ago.. and I can look at it and remember the excitement of being a new Christian..
What’s exciting.. I still find Him new.. I still experience the peer joy of walking with Him.. I can see Him even more in life..
I love my relationship with Jesus..
I just didn’t know what life really was until I surrendered..
I’m not who I was.. I’m still who I am becoming..
