Life Changing Blessings....



I would like to share how God has worked in my life throughout the years. He has truly changed us and keeps doing so everyday. Praise be only to HIM!

Unfortunately, I cannot say that I was a completely changed person after getting baptised. I was called a Christian but I was spiritually weak if not dead. I did not have a huge desire to seek and grow with God. I did try but not hard enough. Looking back now, I know why...I see it in teens these days as well...I was selfish and wanted to have fun. I loved the world more than God...but He clearly says to us in the Bible:
 “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world - the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions-is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever!” 1 John 2, 15-17(ESV)

Today I am God’s child and praise be only to Him! It is His wonderful gift to me!

“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God,not a result of works, so that no one may boast.”
Ephesians 2:8–9 (ESV)


So it all started a few years back when Nick and I got invited to join a couple’s Bible study group. This is such a huge blessing in our lives!


It is so amazing that the true spiritual growth began in us through studying His word with our group. Our leader Alex, is a great God-fearing man who truly prepares good spiritual food for us! It is always very interesting and we learn a lot. Although I am nowhere near perfect but I know God continues His work in us because our thoughts and desires have changed greatly. I am so excited for the day I will be with God in Heaven! Can’t even imagine how wonderful it’s going to be there! Few years back, this topic was one that I liked to avoid. I was afraid of dying just because I loved to live! My faith was weak. Today I am looking forward to the day when my earthly body dies and I will see my Savior! The talk about the end of days and God coming to take His church used to make me feel like, “but I wanna live a little...” now I am SO excited for God to come and take us!! Can you imagine how AWESOME it’s going to be! We will feel true HAPPINESS that no one can ever feel on earth! Life after death continues and where you will spend eternity depends on who you are and what you do here on earth! I have siblings, nephews and a niece who still did not except God in their hearts and I want to say that I am praying for you guys! I love you and want you to spend eternity with God too! It scares me that anyone in my family will hear these words from GOD: “And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.” Matthew 7:23


I am saying this with love and respect, can you imagine burning in HELL all eternity?


To grow in God is ONLY through having a relationship with Him. Read the Bible! LOVE the Bible! Live by the Bible as you pray for GOD to open your eyes to His truth! It’s not easy and yes you will fall at times but is it not worth eternity in HEAVEN? God is giving you this ALL INCLUSIVE best of the best of the BEST vacation getaway for life for FREE! We have done absolutely NOTHING to deserve any of it but He loves us so much that not only did He give His ONLY Son to die for our sins but He is calling us His children too and is preparing a beautiful eternal home for us! PRAISE HIM!
"Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.” Matthew 7:13,14





I am fairly new to this blog world, so not sure who will come across reading this...but I wanna finish with a question, 

are YOU ready to stand before THE ONE and ONLY HOLY God ?
