I'm His Anyway!

Check this out...
     Ps. 130:3  If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?


     Eph. 2:8-9  For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.  Not of works, lest any man should boast.


     Thirty nine years ago, as a young teen-ager, I gave my heart to the Lord.  You'd think the last four decades as a Christian would see me as a mature Christian today.  With some wisdom.  Discernment.  Faith.
      I think I'm more stubborn than most.  I can look back and see that I went through phases in my Christian walk.  In my early teens I was pious and full of righteous indignation on behalf of God, at times.  As a young mother, I took God for granted most of the time.  And other times in my life, I was too ashamed to speak to him or I came to him only when I needed rescue. 



Thank you Father that you love me because ….well, because you love me. Thank you that when you look at me you see your perfect son and that through him I can be saved. Even though I know I must try your patience at times. Father, guide me to know you better. To be more like you and to show your love. I ask, Lord, that when others look at me, they see you.



Readers,
God loves you and wants you to be with him forever, through out eternity. This blog is an inside peek into the journey through life, it's trials and victories that I'm taking but I want you to know how to find God.
In the New Century Version, Romans 3:23 says “All have sinned and are not good enough for
God's glory.”
Chapter 5:12 says, “Sin came into the world because of what one man did, and with sin came death. This is why everyone must die—because everyone sinned.”
Chapter 6:23 “When people sin, they earn what sin pays—death.”
Back to 5, verse 8 “But God shows his great love for us in this way: Christ died for us while we were still sinners.”
10:13 “as the scripture says, anyone who calls on the Lord will be saved.”
Then chapter 10:9-11 says, “If you use your mouth to say, Jesus is Lord and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved. We believe with our hearts and so we are made right with God. And we use our mouths to say that we believe, and so we are saved. As the scripture says, anyone who trusts in him will never be disappointed.”



It is my prayer that you walk down this Romans' Road to Salvation and ask Jesus into your heart. You will never be disappointed. There's a link at the top of this blog where you can email me. Please do so and let me know you've decided to follow his lead or if you have any questions. I obviously don't have a lot of answers but I know the answer man. The one who created it all.
