The past couple of days, I have found myself at the beach. I normally go after 3:00 (the time the sun is not going to kill me), because not many people are there. The sun begins to set, and all is peaceful. I sit on the beach, listening to the waves, and I find I can clear my mind of all earthly worries and relax. This is where God speaks loudest to me. I focus on Him, and he tells me He Loves me! He sends the wind to breathe on me, and I feel His warm embrace in the water! Fear of sharks and water creatures leave me, and I float... held up by God's hands. The waves rock me back and forth, but God does not let me sink. I look up... and I see the Heavens! It isn't until I start loosing vision with the sky that I start sinking! The waves over take me, and I am underwater! I try and put my feet down, but the earth is no where to be found! I call out, "GOD!!! SAVE ME!!!" Fear sets in... the unknown in the water... I get scared, I start swimming, but am getting no where. "GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?" The wind picks up... there are now white caps! They over take me with every beating force! I reach up to the skies... GOD!!! I feel Him grab my hand, and all of a sudden, the waves stop... the wind is silent, and I am floating again! I open my eyes, and there stands God... he smiles, and says... "how quickly the Devil will take over if you loose contact with me! You, my child, live in the world of sin... You are my own hope for the future!"
My friend Jesse does not believe in God, he thinks Heaven to be some kind of "candy land"... He will never understand what I feel. I have tried so many times, but he is too much on "the dark side"... Only now, can the FATHER save Him!
I have recently started to understand what God wants me to do... but because of "SCHEDULING CONFLICTS", I FEAR it may never happen!
"OF THE DARK SIDE FEAR IS"
I must fight this fear with the FORCE! I shall pray for this FEAR to be removed, and then I shall continue on my path towards my DESTINY!
I was playing with magnets the other day after a new friend of mine told me that there is this "magnitism" between myself and someone! "STRONG IN THIS ONE THE FORCE IS" I am lead to believe that this person is strong enough to hold me accountable... and, "FAITH I must have if the correct person for me this person is!" In God's time, all will be revealed!
"God, I just prayer for everyone around me, that they may see You in me! Make me a clean and right spirit in you Lord! God, I ask of you today to shine your Light on the path inwhich you want me to follow! Light a fire in my friends' hearts to be supportive of the path you want me to follow! Remove all doubt, fear, anger, or lust from my heart so that I may focus only on you! Empower the people around me to help guide me on the path! God, use me as a guide for your people that are lost! Use me to show them the way to you! Last God, I pray for my community! To see your people suffer as they are is making hate grow inside of me! I want to save them all, but, I am just one man! God, give me the tools to make this hate and furstration grow to love and understanding! Help me lead your people not against you, but for and with you to REBUILD NORTH WEST FLORID!!!"
"In the Jesus's Holy Name, AMAN!"
