Scripture is the blueprint of our lives. It comforts us when we are sad, calms us when we are frightened or anxious and gives us wisdom when we try to “lean on our own understanding”. Most of my life I grew up thinking the Bible was not important or I would start looking at it later. Later never came. I grew up Catholic and was never shown it’s importance. It wasn’t until several years ago, when I was going through some very difficult circumstances in my life that a chance meeting with an evangelist changed my life. She suggested that I read several versus from the book of Psalms. I read those passages over and over again. At the same time I came across the bible app and the teachings of Dr. Charles Stanley through In Touch Ministries. It was like a perfect storm only in a good way. It wasn’t long after that when I became Born Again. My life changed. I am reading scripture, devotions and prayerfully meditating everyday.
When you place all of your faith in the Lord and submit your will to God, a wonderful peace comes over you. If someone years ago would have told me that this happened to them, i would have thought they were crazy or some kind of religious zealot. Right now, even after a few years from my transformation, I feel like I am in my infancy of becoming a true christian. I still have many years of reading, learning and meditating on how I can grow my personal relationship with the Lord. What an incredible experience.
Have a Blessed day!
