in retrospect

I often wonder where my life would`ve gone had I not been “awoken” from the nightmarish world I once lived in.  I found myself in a dark place all too often only to discover that I had been down that road and I knew where it was going to go. 

When God spoke to me, I did not listen, nor did I want to listen because the world was at my fingertips. I felt that I didn`t need Him because [in my own mind], I had everything under control.  I had put more faith in man & machine then in the One who had died for us.

It has been 4 years since I was reborn to the light which is Jesus. I can`t say that it has not been an arduous journey, but it nice to know that God is with us every step of the way.  

“Count it all joy, my brothers, whenever you face diverse trials, knowing that the testing of your faith develops perseverence” (James 1:2-3)
