Hello all, Decided to try, note I said try, to update. So here goes. God, has been working on me hard lately. And possibly still is. It hurts, but yet I'm so drawn to it. Because the end result is life eternal! One of the things I feel he has been trying to get across to me lately, is that I've just got to be me. You see, sometimes, due to certain things that yes, are beyond my control, I am very passive toward people. And I don't want to become agressive in an ungodly way, but I do want to be more open. These things that are beyond my control, can be worked around. But one of the hardest things to do in this situation, is to be honest. Ok so? Chad? What's up? And I Chad respond, "I've let the enemy lie to me." Then God says," Chad, I've told you to just be yourself, to be that open person toward people." If I don't see you takeing the steps to do that, I'm gonna have to break out the hammer! Hahahahaha! Yes, I have taken some major steps with that this year, and I didn't even go all out with it. And I am so much better off right now this year, than I was this time last year. But now, I feel like God is asking more from me. Its like, ok, you've walked, now let's run. Eventually, your going to fly. But we'll get to that later. And he hit me right over the head with it. He had to. So I'm gonna try this again, now that I've got some foundation under me, and I'm more stable in my walk with God. So here we go! |
