I’m 19 Today!!! May 27, 2009

19 years ago TODAY Jesus power-washed my soul and gave me a brand new start!

He took all of my wrong, gave me all of His right…thus making me right with God.  (II Corinthians 5:21)

He had plans for me (Jeremiah 29:11) and continues to reveal them to me as I try daily to seek Him with all of my heart!  (Jeremiah 29:13)

I am learning…SLOWLY…that nothing is too difficult for Him.  (Ezekiel 32:27)

When He called me…He did so wanting me to please Him…not man!  (Galatians 1:10)

And after 19 years there are several things that still amaze me…like…

• He knew everything about me, past, present and future and still saved me when I confess Him as Lord!
• The way He blesses me…seriously…EVERYTHING good in my life is a result of knowing Christ!  I would never have met and married Lucretia had I not met Jesus…and with no ‘Cretia there would be no Charisse–THAT would be sad!!!
• He allows me to be a part of the ministry of NewSpring Church.
• He has given me INCREDIBLE friends!
• He didn’t ask me to do ministry alone…He’s always with me!

Seriously…I’ve never forgotten what it was like to be lost.  I’ve never gotten over the fact that JESUS SAVED ME…and I want SO MANY more people to have the same experience I had…19 years ago today!!!
