God is so good to me.
Two or three months ago embarked on a journey to deepen my relationship with my maker. I had no idea what i signed up for or what i would experience or anything about it. One of the homies let me borrow a book, and i just thought it was gonna be some book that i would read and put down, but it wasnt like that at all. This book "Secrets of the secret place" by Bob Sorge is a book to more deeply make your relationship with God more personal.
Immediately after the first chapter, i was hooked. Consistently i read this book every night before i went to bed and during this time the Lord and I had this relationship not only from creator to creation but a friendship that developed into a best-friendship. He gave me just a little taste of His mind which was more than i could handle and as i poured my thoughts to Him ( even if He already knew everything i was thinking) a bond that i never experienced was created. This book was so good that i actually delayed myself from reading it because when i finished i wouldnt know what to do. but i finished it and thank the Lord for bringing this book into my life. I hope that if anyone reads this book that it will do as much for you as it has for me and also i hope that i didn't over hype this book but if the Lord wants you to read it and experience something great He will let it happen.
After reading this book my personal one on one relationship with the Lord was built and established, and i continue to go to Him daily and not only at night but throughout the day now too.
After i read this book, i started reading another book called "Pursuit of the Holy" by Corey Russel. This book also led me to many thoughts and increased my actions to become more like Jesus.
After all this, mixed with VBS 2011 and summer retreat 2011, I have learned so much and have seen the Lord do many things. Also I myself have learned to be tested and not get angry because this is how the Lord tested me. I learned to put my all into the Lord, with anything and everything. I had some struggles that I knew without the Lord i wouldnt be able to get through. and it really is the truth that if you seek and ask and knock you will receive the goodness of God.
What i write is merely words and one testimony. But the experience i am continuing to experience is unexplainable.
My life goal which i want to accomplish is to be a missionary for the Lord for the rest of my life so people can experience this friendship between pathetic humans and the Alpha and Omega. His love is uncontainable but the world is containing it and holding us down from what the Lord can do in our lives.
I wish i could write all that I have felt but a simpler solution would be to make Jesus your best friend and experience it yourself. :)
