PE (Personal Entries - Description)

I want to state that I will be posting what I will call a PE (Personal Entry) a few times a week, maybe more. These entries will give some information on my status, struggles and walk in Christ. The whole purpose of these posts is to hopefully bless others through God's work in my life and also give credit where credit is due. Praise God - He is worthy, not I.

My first few PE's will probably focus on my status in Christ. This may include some of my relationships that have been formed, how and why they are important. They will include some details on how God is working in my heart, life and those around me. They will include some of my thoughts and desires as well. I may even start it out with my testimony (life changing). I hope it can provide encouragement and insight. My primary prayer and the burden on my heart is that everyone needs to draw close to God and experience a true, life changing relationship with a living God through Jesus Christ. Imagine what church would be if we as Christians actually drew close to God and worked according to the leading of the Holy Spirit rather than our own strength and works. I want to share personal stories, blessings and answers to prayer. Be still and know that He is God. He is alive; He is real; He is awesome! He loves all of us unconditionally, and calls us as Christians to do the same. Do you hear that church? Do you hear that Christians? What if all Christians loved unconditionally? What if all churches truly welcomed you with open arms out of unconditional love with no judgement? Wow...just wow! This is impossible unless we are walking in the spirit - personal relationship with God. We are not capable of forgiving and loving like that, thus the image the church and Christians are painted in by society today. As God reveals His love to you through a personal and active relationship, you can't help but love as He loves.

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I come before You this evening in humility but full of hope. I want to thank You for all the blessings in my life and how You answer prayers and touch my life daily. I ask You do the same for everyone I love, good or bad. Forgive those that counsel against me and bless them, touch their hearts and work in their lives. Reveal Yourself to them Lord I pray. Please allow my posts on this blog as well as communications with people you place in my life to encourage and inspire. Help me to stay humble and focused on the things that are important in my life. Help me to draw close to You daily; seeking both truth and renewal in my relationship with You. I know this is why I exist, to praise and worship You and follow Your will in my life. I am finding that this means I have to try and do less by my own strength and rely on You. The more I give up to You, it seems the more I see Your works in my life and those around me. I stand in awe of You my God. Continue Your work in my life. I have devoted myself wholly to You and Your purpose\calling. Use me I pray. In Jesus name, Amen.
