    Getting back to the relationship

    Monday, December 17, 2007, 09:51 PM [General]

    Well I have been doing a lot of thinking lately and just really felt that my relationship with God has taking a backseat to daily life.  For a while it puzzled me.  I have been spending a lot of time at church and with my Christian friends but still felt so distant from God.  Then it hit me like a ton of bricks.  Where was my Bible?  I didn’t even know where to look.  I finally found it pushed up under my bed.  When was the last time I opened it?  When was the last time I really took time and talked to God?

    " It's not a religion.  It's a relationship."

    That has always been my motto.  Well if I didn’t call or spend time with a friend that relationship would be in jeopardy of nonexistence.  It is the same way with my walk with God.  The less time and I spend in God’s word or in prayer the more the relationship decreases.  Even though I know my relationship will never go away, I want it to be intimate relationship. God is my rock and should be apart of my life every day.

    So I began to wonder why and when did my relationship become so distant.  And I think it was when I self-consciously began to put God on the back burner.  Not intentionally but somewhere along the way I got catch up in the daily issues of life and forgot about my relationship with God.  

    So I am going to intentionally make sure my relationship gets back to where it should be.  I know it won’t happen over night but I know God will show me the way.  I am reaching out and I know He will meet me the rest of the way.  He has always been there for me even when I don’t deserve it (which I never do).

    So I just ask that everyone on here keeps me in their prayers as I work on my relationship with God!  Thanks!!

    Don't worry, GOD is right there, HE's probably closer now to you than before, when you were in love & worship.Most likely HE's carrying you as we speak.PTL!
    HE's helping you with youevery thought, & burden. HE loves us more than we could ever love HIM, & HE's more faithful to us than we could ever be to HIM. Your convictions are just HIS Spirit knocking on your heart, letting you know that HE's there. Has beeb, is, & will be.Don't ever doubt your faith, that's satan trying you, just know that you are loved & cared for by the KING of KINGS.
    If you would like, you can be a moderator for a Bible study page next year, maybe just one or two days a week? Let me know, so I can tell Frank. The Bible Study page will start on the 8th of JAN.2008 In the mean time Merry Christmas, & know that your in the POTTERS hands.
    Your Brother in CHRIST,

    The joy of the Lord is our strength. What an awesome statement that is Kimberly. When we allow His peace to reign in our lives, we have the mind of Christ and can literally do all things through Christ Jesus Who strengthens us! When we seek Him with all of our heart, mind and spirit, and submit ourselves to Him to lead us and guide us daily (by looking to Him for the answers through daily prayer and daily reading and confessing His word) we are given the peace and the strength to conquer anything that comes our way. Sometimes it is a testing of your faith, to enable you to get to the next level where He wants you to be, so remain strong in Him, and even if the answer comes at the eleventh hour, stand strong!
    Stay strong Kimberly because God Loves You.
