Is Your Life A HOT MESS?

Hey guys!! I am SO excited to be a part of what GOD is doing in this AMAZING BLOGGING WORLD!! Hopefully you will be encouraged by what I have to say.Let me start by telling you a little about me.
God is my life, without Him I'm nothing.
I do not drink.
I do not do drugs.
I have chosen to not have sex again
until God blesses me with the husband I pray for everyday.
Its my life, my decisions.
I know what true love is, because I've felt it everyday since I gave birth to my son, Jayden. I know that it can only come from God.
I'm really easy to get along with...I love everybody...
I have been hurt before but I get up, dust myself off and keep on going...but I have forgiven those who have hurt me=).
I will never let go of someone I love.
My life sometimes gets hard.....but God still shines through all the CRAP...(if Pastor David can say crap I can too...lol)
Problems are a way of growing up because we learn from them.
I am really in love with Jesus , NOT BECAUSE I AM LIKE HIM... I sin like everyone else, I just have him to forgive me.
I'm honest, I speak my mind most of the time.
I don't care what other people think because its such a waste of time to do so.
Everything I do and SAY is for the glory of GOD.
I don't hold grudges
I don't judge people
Every day is a new beginning. God never stops amazing me!!!!
BE BLESSED!! Now let's get started
Hello to all my friends..and warriors. I have to tell you,GOD has been giving me some AMAZING insight on some things lately..its kinda long ..but i HAVE to share it with you. Here goes...... I don't know all that is going on in your life, but GOD knows. In this time your trust and dependency have to be on HIM, because He is the only one who can see you THROUGH this time. I'm SURE people have already FAILED you, but GOD WILL NEVER FAIL YOU and he is ALWAYS there. The sad thing is that many times we look to HIM LAST because we can't SEE HIM. We SEE people and look to people for help, but God does what he does through the people of HIS choice. The people that YOU think can help may NOT be who God is sending your way. So we have to be sensitive to WHO, WHAT and WHERE God is leading us to.

Some of you may not know my testimony, but at one time my life was a mess . A HOT MESS!!! But God straightened it out. It was not a quick process. It was not an easy process. It was not always comfortable. But HE had to get me out of what I had gotten myself into. That's not always pleasant.

When I was in it,I didn't think that my life would EVER be good,let alone GREAT. I thought I had totally screwed up and I just had to play the cards I had been dealt. But that was only because I was in the MIDDLE of it. As I surrendered and allowed GOD to begin to straighten things out I began to slowly see His plan for my life emerge.

It's like cleaning out a closet or dresser. It gets REAL BAD before it looks good. There are piles on the floor and on the bed. It's a MESS!!! But as you separate the piles and reorganize the items in the closet and in the drawers and get rid of items that don't need to be held on to, in the end you sit down and look at your hard work and have a sense of pride and accomplishment because things are finally in order. It's not an easy job and I often want to stop in the middle of it, but that would really be a mess. So, I keep going until the piles are gone and the clothes and shoes are neatly arranged.

We have to do the same thing with our lives. If we want to be able to see our destiny, we can't stop the process when God is re-organizing and shifting things in our lives. It is a chaotic time, but God IS working. TRUST what he is doing and work with him. It won't be easy or pleasant, but if you keep letting him do what needs to be done you will soon be able to look back and see how far he has brought you.

If your life is a mess right now..... put God first and surrender EVERYTHING you are going through to him. God will lead you and guide you and you will be able to see more clearly.ANYBODY GETTING THIS???? Guys i pray that your week is a great one.Stay strong and remember ...GOD is able to do anything .....we just have to ask.......Shelly (Romans1:16)
