God saved me! Did I deserve it? Definitely not, but HE still came for me. He came for me about 5 years ago when nothing was going right in my life…He came for me when everything ahead of me felt uncertain. Even after turning down invitation after invitation from my mother -n-law to attend a church service and declining to speak to a pastor, God still deemed me worthy and came for me. On a rainy gloomy day, he sent a pastor I didn’t really know to call me and tell me about a God that has been with me through the storm I was walking in at the moment. He told me about a God that was collecting every single tear that slid from my eyes, down my cheek and forming a wet spot on my jeans. Psalm 56:8 – You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. I listened and cried but realized although maybe I did feel scared or unsure if this could really be true, there was also a part of me that said nothing else you’ve been doing has worked out for you. Not even realizing that God spoke to me even then that I heard a whisper saying, “GIVE ME A CHANCE!” Back then I didn’t know that God would speak to you, so I shrugged it off as the rain drops falling on the roof of my truck. COME ON EVERYONE, LET`S BE REAL..rain drops falling on car rooftops don’t sound like a whisper. I also do remember thinking the pastor was right, if I said yes it had to be for me not the storm I was in at the moment. I DO REMEMBER!! I DO REMEMBER feeling lost and defeated! I DO REMEMBER feeling sick! I DO REMEMBER having a deep heavy anger that was hard to control! I DO REMEMBER feeling broken! I still remember saying YES to allowing God into my heart. I said yes to letting HIM save me on that rainy day and all the sudden the day didn’t seem so gloomy. I said yes for me and still cried but I felt loved! I felt worthy! I felt excited! I felt the beginning of a new me coming up. I want to encourage you as your reading this that you weren’t given the link to this blog post by accident. This very blog post was meant for YOU! If you haven’t surrendered your life to God, maybe your starting to feel a little tug on your heart, maybe you have tears rolling down your face, maybe you too are feeling scared and unsure if this is a real thing, and maybe you are having an overwhelming feeling to know the same God that came to save me that rainy day. God placed this in my heart for YOU reading this blog post right now. For the one that feels they have done too much to be forgiven, for the one that feels they are a lost cause, and for the one that feels there’s no hope. I want you to know HE is the very missing piece in your heart and life. That void can be filled the moment you take that leap of faith and say YES! This can be your very own DO YOU REMEMBER testimony. You’re right! Nothing will ever be the same… you are a new creation when you say YES! 2 Corinthians 5:17 – This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! I want you to know that just as Christ save me …He can also save you!
