My Road to Christ - Part 1

It all started one day in the year 2008, it was probably just the start of Spring. My husband, Victor and I were driving onto the highway and we noticed what looked like an empty bird’s nest in the middle of the road. Of course we avoided it and drove around it, but as we passed it – I felt Jesus. In that moment, the nest reminded me of Jesus’ crown if thorns. That’s when I knew I had to get back to Christ. I didn’t quite know how or even where to go, but I knew my journey to find out had to begin…

STOP & Be

Stop the craziness, if you want to remain sane

Stop judging, and leave that to God

Stop worrying, and pray

Stop controlling, your path is already paved

Be Yourself, a child of God, as He intended you to be

Be Happy, for He is in Control and will work out your obstacles

Be of God - repent, surrender, and be embraced by the power of our Lord and Savior!

Know that if you are a child of God, and try to live a Christlike life, it doesn't mean life will be easy - It may mean you will be stronger, better prepared, and know that Jesus will never leave your side no matter what you are going through. Living through Him you will be saved when He comes again!

The Way You Show Me That You Are There


Lord, you continue to show me you are there in so many ways.
While sitting in church, I imagined a friendly hand on my shoulder and next thing you know...
that's exactly what happened a few moments later and I was just overwhelmed with joy by you my Lord Jesus.
People around me are also coming to you in faith, wanting to be saved.
I can't help but feel like I want to help and be there for them as much as possible.
My God You are the Great High Priest indeed - our father, our savior.
I wasn't sure if I was on my right 'career' path, just as you reassured me and I was awarded a full scholarship.
(THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!)
Lord, I pray that others seek you first on their path through life. As we are here for a short time until we meet you in
everlasting life. If not for God's pleasure - what else are we here for? (To fulfill His purpose for us!)
I feel wonderful knowing you - as I get to learn more about you (and me) -
and I just want others to be saved and feel your Holy Spirit as I do.

Sharing "Trusting God" written by someone special to me.

Trusting God completely means having faith that he knows what is best for your life. You are not  alone as God is always standing by your side. Take a minute from your busy life, and invite Jesus into your heart, mind and soul as he is waiting for an invitation.
God died for us in the cross so our sins may be forgotten. You need to place your burdens, problems onto him and let God work things out instead of trying to manipulate, force your agenda and take control of the situation. Let go and Let God work. Surrender yourself to the Lord, and wait patiently for him. Always worship and praise the Almighty Father. Amen

Author: someone special to me.

What does it mean to give your life to Christ? (to me)

For me, this means...
 
To give yourself 100%, down to the core – YOU – the inside and outside. Don’t hold back. Let the transformation take place, for your eternal salvation. You are special and your salvation depends on you.

Letting Jesus take control of my life.

It means staying away from sinful lifestyles, a change of lifestyle.
The way you act, the way you think, the way you do things. You can’t control it all. Think of what Jesus would do or would want you to do in a given situation. Every thought / decision in life must come from putting Jesus first.

Let Him mold you into who you’re supposed to be, who he wants you to be. Circumstances happen sometimes to prepare us for something greater. We must realize if the way we are living is true to Christ in every way. Just close your eyes, open your arms and repent, confess, transform.

God Bless you.

"Hair" Resignation - Yes Form Letter Style - LOL - Dorky Me

Hello -

Hope you are well :)

I'm writing to you as I close a chapter in my life. My "hair" chapter. I will be entering a vigorous nursing program on a scholarship and will need to make sure that I am on my toes at all times. This is my life career, I'm finally on the path that God has set out for me. This means no longer doing hair at all throughout the semester so that I can continue to keep my grades up to par. It has been a wonderful experience in my life for the past four years and I thank you for being a great client and friend. Of course we will keep in touch still, I hope :). Thank you in advance for for understanding. The best to you as well with your life's endevours!
