Okay well first of all,I ask that if you take time to read this,please keep an open mind and heart. Don't judge or anything like that,for only God can do that!
So late last year,in November I met a wonderful guy,we ended up falling completely head over heels in love with each other. He went to his parents and my grandparents and told them ''she's the one,and I'm going to marry her'',then not too long after that he put a ring on my hand and we made our vows and promises to each other,to hold until we could get married. Before we knew it,we found ourselves doing things that should wait for marriage. Well,God convicted me strongly of it,and just before I got the chance to tell him that things had to stop happening until we got married,he left me out of the blue. No reason,to explanation,nothing. He just text me and said it was over.
Anyhow,back to what I was saying. I had left church,for personal reasons,and also due to things going on that shouldn't be happening in the church...however that didn't help my case at all. I was away from God,where I was with Him before this happened that is.I was finally starting to get back on track before he left me,and I suppose he knew that and that's what caused him to leave. Through it though,God drew me back into Him. He could have easily let me go,and do my own thing,and eventually hit a dead end road or a wall or something. However He didn't! God showed me mercy,grace,love,compassion,understanding,etc.
So He did what was best for me,by drawing me back into Him,by convicting me,and granted the engagement ended,that's okay! yes it killed me inside,and still hurts today...however,it's more than worth it,I much rather have God than anyone! I was telling all of this to someone,and how it reminded me of the prodigal son,and as this happened,the Holy Spirit showed up and here's what He gave me to say:
Consume me oh LORD,all of me for YOUR honor and glory,that I may walk int he path of righteousness,that I may dwell in the presence of the LORD,in the pouring out of the Holy Spirit! I welcome this feeling dear God,in the name of Your Son Jesus Christ,thank You...praise You...all glory be to You alone oh LORD! May the angels in heaven rejoice,sounding their trumpets, stringing their harps,shouting hallelujah's,oh yes dear sweet,precious Jesus,let it be...let it be oh dear gentle Savior!
So you see how God took me out of things I didn't need to be in,and drew me back to Him...which happened going on 3 months ago,and today this happened! Hallelujah.praise God!
