to list what he has done for me the list would be far to long lol but something he did that I truly am grateful for is how he always believes in me even when I never do, when I am broken and feeling defeated and the enemy convinces me I am not strong enough not good enough to sinful and to I feel doubt fear and sadness from it He says the exact opposite to me he gives me a warm feeling in my soul when I think of him and I am so comfortable around him I can speak to him be with him and even suffer with him with a sense of absolute comfort and knowing I can pour my heart out to him.
He taught me what it means to be a Christian he taught me what real love I mean I can just go and on and on about him

My life with God in short form:
[h=1]Psalm 116:3-8King James Version (KJV)[/h][FONT="]3 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.[/FONT]
[FONT="]4 Then called I upon the name of the Lord; O Lord, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.[/FONT]
[FONT="]5 Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.[/FONT]
[FONT="]6 The Lord preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.[/FONT]
[FONT="]7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee.[/FONT]
[FONT="]8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

I will give you my testimony of what the Lord has done when He revealed to me my complete dependence on the gospel of the grace of Christ.
He has changed my mind ( As, only God can give true repentance ) on how I view a lot of things concerning Him and my life in Christ and of course that means all kinds of different sin - for "whatsoever is not of faith is in fact sin ".
I am not ashamed of the gospel - for in it is the power of God for real salvation.
I have a great passion for Christ!..here is what knowing Him because of the revelation of the gospel of the grace of Christ has done for me.
I was praying one morning and thinking about how the grace of Christ has affected me. I had the scripture come up in my spirit where the Pharisees were arguing about whether a man was born blind or not after Jesus healed him. Of course the Pharisees were trying to discredit the message of Jesus. The man said.." All I know is that I was born blind but now I see."
This is what the gospel of the grace of Christ has done in my life:
I realize that these beliefs in the grace of God....especially the acceptance grace, repentance from dead works and the total forgiveness that Jesus bought and paid for with His blood....that these can be offensive to our religious beliefs and what we have been taught in church. (they were initially to me as well )
This gospel of the wondrous grace of Christ has had a beautiful affect on me. I am more in love with Jesus and the Father more then ever....in love with studying His word....praying in the spirit constantly with a heart full of joy!
This gospel has given me a compassion for other people and to reach out in love to them. To give more than I ever have with a heart full of love.
To live a holier life in Him...which is not only living separate from the "biggie sins" but everything that He reveals about anything that is contrary to life and His nature that is in me....this has led me to be a witness of the life and love of our Lord in me.
If these are the horrible fruit of the grace of Christ in me....I want more!.....give me more grace please my Lord and God!
I am living a much fuller life now, more deeply in love with Jesus and the Father then ever before or ever dreamed was possible and I am just starting.
I am free from the horrible religion of self-effort, having the love of God pour out in me to help others now that I understand the grace that is in Christ then I did when I was doing the self-performance based gospel ( which is not the gospel )
I was blind but now I see. I see Jesus and His finished work for me!
It will always be in eternity "Worthy is the Lamb"..
It will never be.."Worthy is the Lamb......and me..because I did my own D.I.Y self-righteousness/holiness to help Jesus out"
It has always been about Jesus and Him alone and it will always remain that way for all eternity.

I had an auto-immune disease (hidradenitis suppurativa) that was physically repulsive and it tore at my heart(made me self conscious) to one day meet the one (significant other) and the Lord healed me of it. Its gone, praise God. They were boils that bled but God completely healed me of that disease, and removed it from my very DNA. This was back in 2013, no boil since and praise God because He has healed me completely.
For as long as i can remember God has given me a heart for Him. Just recently i was in a very bad depression. A bunch of things happened in my life all at once that drew me away from God. Thru my good friend here on CC God helped me realize that because of these things happening i was starting to live my life according to things of this world not because of things ftom God. These things were leading me away from Gods promises into the vanity of this world. I was looking at things from a view point "under the sun" not from a view point "above the sun" (from Ecclesiastes). Nothing has changed with these things but my view is different because God is the one in control not things of this earth. God has put me back on track in the faith i know to be true not in the fleeting things of this world. Praise God for His healing touch on my heart! I let my guard down and i got hit by every flaming arrow. I know i still need to keep my guard up but i am back to wearing the armor of God not the vain coverings of this world.
"And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD: Remembering mine affliction and my misery, My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me. This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD." (Lamentations 3:18-26)
