well, I'm back in here to schpeel a little more. I'm still waiting on Jesus to come back, and I used to want to do stuff before that happened, but now I just don't care. I'm not saying that in a "life sucks" sorda way, I'm saying anytime He chooses to come back or take me from this earth, I am ready. God wants asked me if I wanted to go "home"

I firmly beleive that God speaks directly to us, and about things that seem so insignificant. He does to me all the time. Believe me. I've learned to recognize God's voice, and I know it's his when it's confirmed in his word, but he does speak directly to me as well. Perhaps not in an audible way, but when I've had direct statements made directly to me in my thoughts, and then see the fruit, it's deffinately God. I was sitting once, listening to Mark Darling speak at the 2000 national conference, and I was maddly in love with this girl at the time. I was haveing a very hard time with the situation, and suddenly, God asked me point blank, "Are you willing to give her up for me?" Stated, just like that. I immediately said "yes," because I didn't want to think about it and try to second guess if that was God, but the next morning, everything I felt for that girl was gone! It's happened evertime like that (except this last time, ugh), and more than that, I hear that same voice reveal so many things to me! If the Holy Spirit dwells in me, the fullness of God in me, then why can't he speak directly to me?

How do I know my name's in the book of life? Simple. God told me so. God called me, and the Holy Spirit lives in me, and has sealed me in Christ Jesus. That's how I know.
