Flying Free

I had a long talk with my mother last night and she really opened my eyes to alot of thing. Today I woke up feeling great. I am ready for what the future has in store for me. I am wrapping up this semster, and I feel good about the grades I plan on receiving. I am getting my priorities back in order. I am my main focus right now, and until further notice that is how it is going to be. I am excited about life and all that it has to offer. I am ready to work hard and reap great rewards. I feel more free than I’ve ever felt, and I love it.dove

Realize

I am finally realizing that I am not going to get everything that I want in life. And sometimes I will have to work extremely hard and go above and beyond to attain the things that I really want. And sometimes  things are not going to happen exactly how and when I want them to. I undersatnd that now. It took some time and some tears but I get it. There are many things that are out of my control, so I can’t focus on trying to change or fix them. I’m still trying to figure out my purpose in life, but if I continue praying I’m sure God will reveal it to me when he is ready.

I’ve Learned

I’ve learned that I can not live my life for anybody but myself. I have learned that before I can make someone else happy, I must first be happy myself.

From now I will be living for myself. I will not depend on the people who are supposed to be there for me. My so called friends and loved ones. I am going to do for me now.

I’ve learned that the only person that will not lie to me, is me. I’ve learned that it doesn’t matter how much a person tells you one thing, they will go and do the complete opposite.

I’ve learned that there will be many people in my life. I’ve learned that I can not fault others for what someonelse has done. I’ve learned to forgive, but I can’t quite forget.

I’ve learned that I will get hurt and fall down sometimes. But I have also learned that I will heal and get up again. 

I’ve learned that I have a promising life ahead of me. And, I refuse to be held back by the shackles of my past.

Court Case

My mother emailed me this and I really liked it.
‘Stop telling God how big your storm is. Instead, tell the storm how big your God is!’

After living what I felt was a decent’ life, my time on earth came to the end. The first thing I remember is sitting on a bench in the waiting room of what I thought to be a court house. The doors opened and I was instructed to come in and have a seat by the defense table.

As I looked around I saw the ‘prosecutor.’ He was a villainous looking gent who snarled as he stared at me. He definitely was the most evil person I have ever seen.

I sat down and looked to my left and there sat. My Attorney, a kind and gentle looking man whose appearance seemed so familiar to me, I felt I knew Him..

The corner door flew open and there appeared the Judge in full flowing robes.

He commanded an awesome presence as He moved across the room I couldn’t
take my eyes off of Him. As He took His seat behind the bench, He said,
‘Let us begin.’

The prosecutor rose and said, ‘My name is Satan and I am here to show you why this woman
belongs in hell.’
He proceeded to tell of lies that I told, things that I stole, and In the past when I cheated others. Satan told of other horrible Perversions that were once in my life and the more he spoke, the
further down in my seat I sank.

I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t look at anyone, even my own

Attorney, as the Devil told of sins that even I had completely forgotten about. As upset as I was at Satan for telling all these things about me, I was equally upset at My Attorney who sat there silently no Offering any form of defense at all.

I know I had been guilty of those things, but I had done some good in my life – couldn’t that at least equal out part of the harm I’d done?

Satan finished with a fury and said, ‘This woman belongs in hell, she is guilty of all that I have charged and there is not a person who can prove otherwise.’

When it was His turn, My Attorney first asked if He might approach the bench. The Judge allowed this over the strong objection of Satan, and beckoned Him to come forward.

As He got up and started walking, I was able to see Him in is full splendor and majesty. I realized why He seemed so familiar; this was Jesus representing me, my Lord and my Savior. He stopped at the bench and softly said to the Judge, ‘Hi, Dad,’ and then He turned to address the court.

‘Satan was correct in saying that this woman had sinned, I won’t deny any of these allegations. And, yes, the wages of sin is death, and this woman deserves to be punished.’

Jesus took a deep breath and turned to His Father with outstretched arms and proclaimed, ‘However, I died on the cross so that this person might have eternal life! and she has accepted Me as her Savior, so she is Mine.’

My Lord continued with, ‘Her name is written in the Book of Life, and no one can snatch her from Me. Satan still does not understand yet. This woman is not to be given justice, but rather mercy.’

As Jesus sat down, He quietly paused, looked at His Father and said,
‘There is nothing else that needs to be done.’ ‘I’ve done it
all.’ The Judge lifted His mighty hand and slammed the gavel down. The followingwords bellowed from His lips. ‘This woman is free.’ The penalty for her has already been paid in full.

‘Case dismissed.’

As my Lord led me a way, I could hear Satan ranting and raving, ‘I won’t give up, I will win the next one.’ I asked Jesus as He gave me my instructions where to go next, ‘Have you ever lost a case?’

Christ lovingly smiled and said, ‘Everyone that has come to Me and asked Me to represent them has received the same verdict as you, ~Paid In Full~
