I have become “filled with the Holy Spirt” (Ephesians 5:18)
Tuesday, March 6th, 2007I have recently recommitted myself to Christ (within the last 6 months). I am so filled with the Holy Spirit that I am having a hard time concentrating on much else. It is such a wonderful feeling.
I had been walking in darkness for most all of my adult life. I was so empty, but always looking to fill that void. This is something Heather could see, but I could not. I owe her a great deal for leading me to light. It really took a massive failure in my life to open my eyes. I can only imaging the anguish she must have endured as years of ministering to me dragged on. I would hear her, but I would not listen.
I was/am an ambitious person. I have always know that I was put here to do great things. My problem was that I thought I was in charge of deciding what those Great things would be. I have tried many things and failed, but I always got right back up and tried something else. However, last year the Lord made me hit hard. A fall I thank Him for every day…now. During that fall, I cursed Him. However (I believe by no coincidence of the number) 3 people/things/events were placed in my path to show me the way. 3 burning tapers summond by the will of my wonderful wife.
As I now walk with God every day, I am dumbstruck by how lost I was. I was so lost, I couldn’t recognize I was lost. In the coming days, week, months, years… I look so forward to discovering what God has in store for me.
