Entry: 4/21/02
This Sunday morning, I came to church with a bad attitude. A million things were going through my mind. I don't know what exactly started the whole thing. I begin feeling useless and tired. I started comprimising with my thoughts. I gave into bitterness and anger. I wanted to worship, but my mind was so bogged down. I felt stuck in the mud. One of our Pastors went up to the microphone during worship. She said, "I sense a need that a lot of you have come here distressed and held back by so many things. You need to get to that point where you are desperate for God. Throw off whatever is hindering you and seek God."
It sure got my attention. I prayed. Tears came to my eyes as I wanted to just clear my head. But before I even asked God to do so, a peace and hungerness came over me. I felt a renewal. Like I had been baptized all over again. I praise God that he cares so much for me. He has given me so much.
Romans 8:6 says:
"The mind of a sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace."
I really felt the annointing of God. The Spirit moves in people if your hungry enough. I was so hungry for his words this morning. I thank him that he's changing me into a man he can use.
Lord,
Thank you for what you've done for me. I have so many things to be thankful for. Help me grow Lord. Let me eat of your word today. Father, fill me with your spirit. I love you and thank you Jesus. You did the unspeakable. You gave me more than I deserve. In your name I pray. Amen
