Well, without going overboard and writing way to much, here it is short and sweet.

I was selfish, feeling the world pretty much was there for my entertainment.

I was greedy, believing I deserved whatever came my way.

I was arrogant, thinking I knew better than most others about many things, and especially what was best for me.

I was envious, knowing life had more to offer me because everyone else seemed to be enjoying it.

I was bored, because everything seemed so mundane.

Then I found Jesus, and accepted his love and grace. I was eventually able to accept myself, and my place here on earth. This made me more willingly accept others, and want them to experience these amazing feelings of redemption, forgiveness, and empowerment each of us are called to receive through God.

That's it in a nutshell.

I found that when I finally surrendered unto the Lord for all of my daily living, that I was overcome by a surreal peace, which I have never experience before. I don't know how to explain it. You get such a feeling of calm, peace and love, you know that nothing matters because He is in charge. It is a beautiful feeling.

it all works out. when I try to do things all on my own, with my own strength and reasoning and understanding, things usually get all screwed up. when I trust in the Lord to lead me, things work out fine. it's often not what I planned, but it's what I need. the Lord knows us, individually, He knows what we need and what we want. He will look after us and take care of us if we just trust Him, and keep putting one foot in front of the other.

I know that is true because it has been shown to me that all my life Jesus has been there, keeping me safe, even when I think I am alone, when I thought nobody cared, when I was in awful situations that I brought on myself Jesus was there. He brought me out, cleaned me off, and always had His hand on me. I see it now, I didn't before, and it humbles me and breaks my heart that i was so ignorant so long.

It means do not trust the word of MAN, nor us your own understanding of the world.

Trust God and use his wisdom and understanding

I was a sinner, I took God's advice not to sin anymore, I got pulled out of hell, my mind is now at peace, I dream sweet dreams.


"And I have the keys of hell and death, signifies that He alone can save. By "keys" is signified the power of opening and shutting; here the power of opening hell, that man may be brought forth, and of shutting, lest, when he is brought forth, he should enter again. For man is born in evils of all kinds, thus in hell, for evils are hell; he is brought out of it by the Lord, to whom belongs the power of opening it. That by "having the keys of hell and death," is not meant the power of casting into hell, but the power of saving, is because it immediately follows after these words:

Behold, I am alive for ages of ages;

by which is signified that He alone is eternal life (n. 60); and the Lord never casts anyone into hell, but man casts himself. By "keys" is signified the power of opening and shutting, in Revelation also (3:7; 9:1; 20:1; also in Isa. 22:21, 22; in Matt. 16:19; and in Luke 11:52). The power of the Lord is not only over heaven, but also over hell; for hell is kept in order and connection by oppositions against heaven; for which reason, He who rules the one must necessarily rule the other; otherwise man could not be saved; to be saved is to be brought out of hell" (Apocalypse Revealed n. 62).
