Last week I was doing some cleaning and rearranging. I had to move all my DVD's to move my TV and I found some very special DVD's that are in those little paper packets. I decided to pop in my Baptism video and listen to the great worship and testimonies. It was emotional to hear and watch - one year (almost to the day) that I stood before a family of believers and took a HUGE step in my life!
Tonight while browsing around online for some good songs, I looked up the song I heard on the radio today as I drove to the lake. The words to the song brought back quite a flood of emotions because I had so many people question in the toughest times I faced in Arizona, why did I still choose to follow Christ?! Thinking of this in relation to what my Baptism meant last year - full surrender to truly follow Christ NO MATTER WHAT - this song brought a smile to my heart. No matter how deep the valley has been - He has been with me. He has NEVER left me!
Hear this...
I hear these people asking me
How do I know what I believe?
Well I'm not the same me
And I saw the proof I need
I felt Love I felt Your grace
You stole my heart that day
Seriously, people have asked and there are no words but to look back over the past 8 years and say - it's ALL God! I'm NOT the same person I was in 2004. He has stolen my heart and it is FULLY His! I have my days of struggle but still press on; one foot in front of the other.
One day closer to loving Him more, following His plans for my life... He truly is all that really matters in this life. I pray I never forget that!
