In my walk with God – I grow closer to Him everyday. I was thinking how very different my life is than
just several years ago. I remember a sermon where my pastor was telling me about his early view of God. Basically he explained that when he
was young he thought the whole idea of God was to make children behave and to
comfort old people when they were dying. Now keep in mind that he grew
up going in church - so it’s not like he didn't know God. He was just a bit cynical (like perhaps a lot of us are at times). He went on to say that once he saw a total life transformation of someone in his family, he easily could see God everywhere. The fact that life change IS possible and there IS any good in this world is proof God exists.
Now I would say that once you experience the Holy Spirit –
you don’t need any more convincing. That’s where I am today. It’s been a long
journey for me and I’ve surrendered my life to Christ. But
let’s just say that you haven’t experienced the Holy Spirit and you are seeking after answers in your life.
What would you think if you witnessed a total life transformation in someone in
your life? What about a change in you? Would you wonder how it happened? Maybe.
But ponder this. God changes lives every day. If you pray
for His purpose in your life – He will come forth. Don’t be afraid
to try it. Surrender to God's will and tell Him that you want to surrender. Watch. God transforms lives! Old habits seem to disappear, struggles become less so, and there is a peace that surpasses all understanding. The creator of the universe knows you and He wants you to know Him. He loves you RIGHT where you are - but He doesn't want to leave you there. God wants you to live in the purpose that He created you for. Step out in faith today and ask Him into your life!
Look at the scripture Mark 10:27 and see what Jesus had to say about this.
