Turn to Something Greater
ComfortI slowly started turning to God. At the same time a Godly woman that I worked with was working on her relationship with God too. She was listening to a Christian song one day and I really liked it. I asked her about it and she gave me her cd. I started listening to it and enjoyed it. The music I listened to was one of the first things God changed.
I continued to keep praying and reading my Bible and listening to Christian music. I started wearing Christian t-shirts and I started to see a change in myself. I didn’t just say I was a Christian and that I believed in Jesus Christ, but my life became a reflection of my belief as well.
I used to question why the relationship didn’t work out. I thought, God, what was the purpose of me meeting him if it wasn’t going to last and if it was just going to hurt me? I see now a couple reasons why it didn’t last. The most important reason is that it brought me to God. I am the woman that I am today because of it. I also realize now that I want a Godly husband. Nothing else will do.
The following year after the incident, 2007, I was baptized along with my mother, sister, aunt, and brother.
Something that I want to mention is that everything we do, see, or hear has an impact. We act on those thoughts, sights, and words. Be careful what you listen to and who you listen to. Get to know God’s truth. Read His living word, the Bible. Stay away from anything that will lead you astray. If your heart is ever in pain or if you feel afraid, nervous, sad or even happy don’t turn to worldly things. Instead, turn to something Greater. Turn directly to Jesus Christ. He is only a prayer away. Always remember that God loves you. He is just a prayer away…
