Taken for the Letter “I Always Knew God and Jesus”
I always knew God and Jesus
When I was 4 years old, I knew I would go to Heaven to be with God, my Heavenly Father and my Big Brother Jesus, Who is my Lord and Savior!
When I was in Henrietta Egleston Children’s Hospital to have open heart surgery at the age of 4, I told my mother;
If I die, please don’t cry for me
For, I will be living with God and Jesus.
I did not know God would call me home many times and bring me back to live here until my time.
My Heavenly Father knew that I, a Prodigal Child; would backslide, but a lot of his children have.
He always knew I would come back to him.
That day would be June 23, 2010
I was lying in a hospital bed in the ICU, being told I only had two hours to live. In those two hours, I got right with my Heavenly Father and Jesus.
I confessed I was a sinner.
I asked Jesus to be my Lord and Savior of my heart and life
I surrendered my life to God and Jesus
I remember asking my Heavenly Father;
If you take me tonight, I know I will be with you
If you choose for me to be here for a while I will do what you want.
As you can see
I am here doing what my God wants me to do
It has been a long road that has not been easy
There have been times I have denied God and Jesus verbally, just as Apostle Peter did
Or just by my actions
I have let doubt cloud my mind and heart as Apostle Thomas did.
I know as I look back on my life, my Heavenly Father has been there with me
He has allowed things to happen to strengthen me
To bring me back to him
To mature me in my Faith in him
God has smoothed the path for me
God has straightened the road for me
God has called me to serve his church
That would start with serving as a Sunday school Kindergarten teacher
Then move on to whatever he asks me to do in Faith
Faith in God and Jesus
I do not take any glory
The Glory goes to God and Jesus
I trust My Heavenly Father to help me
He is stilling helping me
Sometimes I feel he is so far away
But I know he dwells inside of me……….
AMEN!!
