Intro to me... Why i'm doing this...
Hi everyone, You can call me CG for Christian Girl. I am in my late 30's. I am a working wife and mom to 5. I have been baptized when i was a baby having grown up in Catholic faith. But since going to a non-denominational bible church I have been able to truly learn more about Jesus and what it means to be "A Christian".
Lately, I have been feeling like i need to share some of my life experiences/testimonies with the world. I am not a pastor or minister or evangelist or anything else. I'm just another person that has run into Jesus while going through a hard time of my life. And slowly started to see how He had been in my life for so long. And I was too ignorant, or to stuck in my "I Got This" ways to see Him. Or maybe i just didn't want to believe that someone other than "good ol capable ME" had control of my life.
So you will see the entries that I post will usually come from nuggets of insight that God has given me while i'm in my studies. And the thoughts and opinions are just me and my thoughts. I'm not in any way insinuating that because I am reborn, that i know and understand bible verses, and that i am now perfect. Lets get this straight now. I am in this walk 100% now. But it does not mean that I am perfect. I cannot be and will never be perfect. There has only been one person in the world that is perfect and that was Jesus Christ. I long to be like him, but because sin lives in me, I have to die daily to so much, just so I can make it through the day. Some days i make it through and i feel like a success in my attempt. But other days, I do have to ask for repentance for something I may have done. And that's just the life of being a Christian. It doesn't mean we have it all together and that life is great and perfect for us. It's not. We still have challenges. I KNOW I DO! But it's the constant examination of the heart and mind. And when you know you have done something that is contrary to what The Word says, you know you repent for it. And you don't have to wait to Wednesday night bible study, or Sunday morning service. You can do it immediately. It can even be something as simple as "Father Forgive Me, I don't know where that came from. Please help me work that thing out so I can be free from doing it again." Because you do know that YOUR CAPABLE SELF is only capable of helping you do that thing again right? It's the Holy Spirit that HELPS you be able to NOT do that thing again.
