God Uses Us
Galatians 6:7:Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
God uses us in many ways, often so people will see He is alive today. This is true of my own life. I would have never thought I would write a book and have a Christian blog. I have been through many hard times. When I went through them I didn’t understand, asking Him, “Why, Lord?” As a baby Christian, I thought once you were saved you had no more trouble. That was wrong, sometimes you have even more troubles.
I owned my own Christian beauty shop, and one of my neighbors did not want me there, so he backed his truck through my front windows in the middle of winter. Police called me and said I had to board the windows up. I had to take my boys out of a warm bed and into a very cold store with no heat to take care of the situation. They were young and being a single mom, I had to take them with me. I tried to make the best of the situation, they took their sleeping bags and slept on the floor in the shop while the men came to board the windows up. At the time, I was hurt and felt lost and lonely. It took much prayer on my part to understand the situations I was constantly going through. But by always trusting in Him, He always took me through.
I blog about my life and experiences, hoping that I can encourage those who are hurting to hold on, that Jesus will see them through just as He has always done with me. I have read many Christian testimonial books that helped me to not feel alone and to hold on. I had times I wanted to give up, but Jesus came and ministered to me. An ever encouraging Word He provided! As I look back in hindsight, I can see clearly that He was always with me. He is not dead, but alive and caring for His people. I want to live so I can glorify Him through my life. God is good! Praise Jesus!
