I gave god my whole life yeah

[Heather-Anne]

Ok so I was thinking last night about giving god my life and I spoke to sunshine307 and she said put it in the post. So I will.

“As I was praying, I saw a vision of the Lord, manifested in the person of someone I love very much. In the vision, I saw this person lying in bed, exhausted after a hard day's work. The Lord said to me "What do you think she would like right now? How could you bless her?" I could instantly see that a cup of hot tea and a home-cooked meal would be just as much, if not more of a blessing to her than whatever big, distant work I could conjure up to show her my love. Immediately, I could see what God was trying to show me. We are created like Him. If we appreciate a "small" gift given in love more than the fanfare of a "big" gift given in insincerity, how much more does God?

As the vision continued, I could see Jesus sitting alone by a road with people running up and down it. They were all very busy. Some were stopping and chatting with Him for a moment here and there, but as I overheard their conversations, they were mostly to inform Jesus of what they wanted from Him, or what they were going to do for Him. One man in particular ran up to him. "Oh, Jesus, I'm so excited," he cried. "I'm off to tell the world all about you!" Quickly he ran off before Jesus could say anything at all. My heart broke, as I saw Him there, sitting by Himself. Yes, He wanted to bless those people with things beyond their wildest imagination. Yes, He wanted them to find fulfilment in serving Him. But what He really wanted most of all was for those people to come and sit with Him and talk awhile...to hold His hand and look deep into His eyes...to share their dreams and sorrows, and to hear His joys and sorrows...to let Him simply give His love to them. In all their mad rush to give and get, they missed the greatest treasure of all, sitting right in front of them.”

I read this in Chads post about Christmas and it got me thinking because I don’t think I can do much for god at all but then I read this and realised that I can do small stuff. And also I knew that I could not run around like everyone and go to other countries and do amazing stuff for god but I could talk to him I think and tell him about my day and all. That I can do. So it made me look and think hmmm this is almost possible.

So then I was in live chat right? And I was feelin a bit down because I knew I needed to choose an all and scrappy was asking me some questions about stuff like my life and all and I realised that I was so tired and that I wanted to be stronger than god even because I was scared of him (a lot) and OH yeah so I went to leave at about 2:20am and I met mmd on the way out so she was asking some questions too bout why this and that and I just said ya know what? I am so tired an I cant fight god any more. So we went into the prayer room and mmd and scrappy said some prayer words for me to repeat and I did! HA! That was at 2:49 am which is now my second birthday! Ha!

Please pray tho that I don’t ever sin because I don’t want to now

So kool!

So It is weird to think that I have a family now that I am in.

Ha!

hanni,

welcome sister, welcome to life eternal in the love of our Lord

happy birthday :cake:

it is the small stuff that matters as well my friend, we are all called into love and service. we are all called to be Christ in this world today, and i for one ( though i know there are many ) am very very glad to have you with ourselves as a loving and working member of the body of Christ.

we are called to work as the Lord leads us, we are called to do His willing when and where he wants and needs us, in His time. for a few this means travelling the globe, reaching out to people in far lands, for some it means reaching the homeless the impoverished in out own neighbourhood, for some it is preaching on street corners, etc etc we are all called to live differently yet the same. we are all called to live in love as humble servants, doing His will and His will only

Luke 12:8
I tell you, if anyone openly declare himself for Me in the presence of human beings, the Son of man ill declare Himself for Him in the presence of God's angels

Luke 15:10
in the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing among the angels of God over one repemtant sinner

hanni, it was a honour and a privelidge to be with you when you openly confessed you desire to be with Christ, something i will carry forever.

dear Lord i thank You for gracing this child and for giving her the strength and courage to come before You and to acknowledge You, to accept You and Your love. thank You Lord for loving hanni. thank You for making her a child of Yours. thank you for welcoming all who seek Your face.

may the Lord bless you hanni and may His love pour forth into your life

God bless sister

Congratulations! God bless you and welcome to Christ' family!

2 Corinthians 4:13
It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken." With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak,

1 Timothy 4:12
Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

Hebrews 11:6
And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

1 John 5:1
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well.

May God bless you and your household. Spread your faith to the lost and reach out to them daily. Pray often, read often and believe always!

Hi Hanni, I've already told you how excited I am that you have become my sister. Welcome to the family of God. It has been a joy getting to know you a little bit and I look forward to having fellowship with you and getting to know you better from now on. You are an inspiration in the amount of reading you do and the questions you ask. God bless you hanni.

Father I thank you that hanni made this decision to follow you, and I rejoice with the angels over one sinner who has come to repentance. I ask for your protection for her and that you will show her if this college course is for her. Praise you Father. Father I ask that hanni may know your presence with her in the days ahead. In Jesus name. Amen

:shade: praise God and blessings upon you sister in christ. When scrappy told me this morning I thanked God for bringing you home to walk and grow in the compassion and strength of Christ. To find joy within your life that will help you to ease the pain you have endured, that Christs healing spirit will annoit and renew you. Welcome to Christs family and how the heavens were filled with rejoicing as Christ welcomed you into his arms and he said to all within the heavens, "Look there is my blessed child, my daughter, she is home."
God bless you and protect you Hanni...

Lord Jesus thank you for Hanni, thank you for her courage her honesty her openess. Bless her and annoit her with your healing grace and the power of your love. Help her as she steps forward on this exciting walk of fellowship, bring her into your awesone presence and guide her every step of the way. Amen.

Praise God Hannah Ann that you are in a large extended family, the Lord is so gracious to us and he wants so much to spend time with him. We all can make a difference wither small or large. I am not a preacher or an evanglist, but I know that God has given me gifts that change lives. He will do the same for you. All we have to do is ask. Enjoy your journey with the Lord, let him be your first love.
