Why I believe and follow Christ.

I do not follow Christ out of doctrine, I follow because of who He’s shown Himself to be in my life. I did not grow up with Christ spoken in my home and I look back and I see the countless times and ways He has been trying to get my attention. 

I now realize who He spoke through and the seeds He strategically planted for me to grow in  peace, gentleness,  humility, kindness, gentleness, and in love; The water that grew these was forgiveness. I realized how deep forgiveness truly goes, it literally is for yourself and not what we often buy into feeling and thinking forgiveness makes the wrong ok or minimizes the wrong done onto us. As humans we tend to be naturally selfish and if i could freely say, this is a time we can be selfish by understanding that Forgiveness is for ourselves first and foremost.

The feelings of murder in our hearts that we harbor are actual sins against God because it’s hate and He is not a God of hate but a God of Love, pure love and compassion. Hate can easily lead to resentment and pollution in your mind and we end up walking around life with a chip on our shoulder or a frown on our face we often call the resting ugly face. 

Forgiveness is not easy to get started, so you can simply borrow God’s forgiveness if you don't know how else to begin the process. Through time and endurance, He will teach you how to water the seed of forgiveness because He is a kind, gentle and patient teacher.

Remember the Lord is close to those in deep dark heartbreak, weary in spirit, those in mourning and simply when life seems to be falling apart. I often asked why is He so close then and now when all is going right? Well, it is us. Our hearts (thoughts and emotions) are so deceiving and in constant flux. When we are hurting we seek Him because quite frankly we don't know where else to turn when things are not under our control. So we seek the divine to miraculously help us. We get down on our knees and pray for miracles or for the pain to go away. Diving deep and leaning into the pain, going right through the pain is the way out. Remember to feel it is to heal it. All emotions need to be felt to their intensity and not allow the feelings to control us but to become familiar with and learn their ways so we can put them in their place when the time comes. We must become masters of ourselves and not masters of pointing out everyone else's flaws and mistakes. We truly are the experts of ourselves, we just need to learn the emotions that live inside of us and orchestrate them to serve us through creativity and not let them sabotage our lives.
