Soul Food…My Walk with God

Soul Food…My Walk with God

I don’t know how many of you know, but I attend noon prayer at my church. I used to go to the 5am prayer but it became too much trying to get back home and make sure the kids were up on time. When they started the noon prayer I was ALL over it.

When I first gave my life back to God, I asked for a praying spirit. He gave me just that. I NEVER thought I would be in a place where I LOVED to pray.

I would pray while sewing, driving just everywhere. My favorite place to pray was in the shower.

Over the past few months (July – October) I got WAY off track. I thought I was back on track but I wasn’t.

I actually thought I posted about it but I’m not seeing it. I think I started an entry and didn’t finish it.

Yep. I started it September 16, 2013 and never finished it.

I still didn’t post this. Look at the date of this draft:

You see I’ve had this issue and E V E R Y T I M E I think this issue has been resolved, it comes RIGHT back up again. EVERYTIME. Like clockwork.

I don’t know about you but sometimes its hard to look at yourself. You (and I’m speaking about myself) want to think you have it all together. You want to think it’s ok. You want to think it doesn’t REALLY matter when it’s the total opposite.

To me (and I’m speaking about myself) when you are in that position you are kinda in a bad place. Anytime you don’t want to hear something about yourself, especially when it’s not so good, you kinda need a slap in the face. Someone to tell you to wake up, you messing up.

I had that slap in the face (NOT LITERALLY).

You see I had to own up to some things, get some things in the open and really see things for what they were. While it hurts something serious, it was needed.

I’m thankful for the women God placed in my life to keep me straight. ESPECIALLY when they KNOW I don’t need these issues in my life.

LisaB has been a GODSEND. We can cut up, but when it comes down to it she knows my heart and that means more to me than anything.

I’m so glad to say that as of this post, God delivered me from this situation a few months ago (around July/August). See, it doesn’t take God long to work, I just needed a made up mind.
