What God Has Done In My Life



God kept me up last night with a lot of things on my mind. I tossed and turned, but I couldn’t get to sleep. Then, as all these things were rolling around in my head, it was replaced with a question: "What has God done in your life?" I didn't think that myself, something else spoke to me. I think it was the Holy Spirit. So I wrote ten things that He has done and what he is to me…

1. He has blessed me with a wonderful mom, dad, and siblings. 

2. He has given me a heart of song, “Music in my soul”, as I say.

3. I wouldn't know what I know right now if it wasn't for Him. I can't imagine life without Christ.

4. He has given me a gift of drawing and, now, playing the guitar.

5. He is the God who woke me up early in the morning to get me to watch the Fresh Life podcast. I learned how the Devil wants to get at God's heart by using us. The Devil doesn’t care about us.

6. He is the God that reminds me to PRAY, love, don't complain, just do, and don't question, and to listen to what is right and to reject the thoughts of this world.

7. He is the God who told me, "Don't go to the people of this world for things, come to Me."

8. He is the God who saved my daddy from a tragic accident. If he wasn’t here on earth I wouldn’t be here in TN and AL being used by Him to change lives.

9. He gave me knowledge and spoke words through me that I was amazed with. I spoke words that I didn’t know because my heart told me to and the Holy Spirit is in me now more than ever.

10. He gave me a beautiful voice. As I sang in the playground in Oak Mountain State Park in AL, it changed a life. “It takes one, what if I’m the one.” [The One by Brandon Heath]

My God,
Loves
Guides
Speaks
And works in ways we can’t even see sometimes… to an extent we can't imagine.
My hope is in Jesus Christ who loved me and blessed me with all I know, say, write, and do.
Thank you Jesus!

“For he orders his Angels to protect you wherever you go.”

"What if you’re the ONE!"
"You could be one more chance for hope" in this world. [The One ]
Go for God's calling, not man’s calling,

"The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps."
