I try to live according to the spirit and not according to the desires and passions of the flesh. God bless you.
"Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. " Gal. 5:24

Since Jesus saved me I feel that he has called me into ministry. I am currently a missionary with my church and plan on becoming a chaplain in the NAVY within a year or so. None of this would happen if it weren't for the radical change that Christ made in my life. I have no reason to brag except in Him.

I was a very unhappy young woman. I was in my 20's and 30's in the 70's and 80's, before sexually transmitted diseases put a brake on freewheeling sex. I was very promiscuous, and never thought twice about it. Except I was broken and miserable and didn't know why. I'm much older now, and after becoming born again, I lead a life righteous before God. He gave me back my virtue and purity, great treasures for a woman. I am grateful to Him for this, among of course dozens of other things.

Yes, God has done so much for me and my family. I mean we were in debt so high that you could not even imagine. But as always God came through with the money. It really true when He says that He will never leave us or forsake us. I mean He didn't leave the Israelites when they started worshiping a golden calf. And He is a jealous God too. But just because we make a mistake or fall into sin doesn't mean that He will be like that's it they disobeyed me I'm no longer their Father. No God will always be there for us no matter what we do. As long as we go to Him in repentance and truly mean it is when He will forgive us. Because God is a forgiving God. It even says in the Bible that He will forgive us 70 times 7 which is 490 but that means years not days or times. It means he will keep forgiving us of our sins as long as we ask Him to.

Yes, I spent years beleiving that I could never be forgiven of sins, and that I would go to Hell for eternity no matter what I did. I lost my desire to live and thought about suicide for a good deal of time, however, I could never bring myself to do it, I was going to thrust a knife into my chest one time, but as I brought the knife close to my chest, the knife stopped, and I just couldn't put an end to life. I tried church several times, and 1 preacher point at me and started saying what types of sins that I was involved in right in front of everyone. I was under the influence of many dark spirits, and lived my life not cairing about anything. I eventually tried church again (a pentecostal church) and my hair stood on end, I definetly felt the spirit of the Lord in that place. I decided then that it would be better to live my life following God, because of the chance that I could be forgiven of my sins, because that would be better than living my life satisfying the flesh and confirm my eternal destination, Hell. I was delivered that day, no longer under the influince of those dark spirits, and living for God. I had always been told by preachers had always told me that they felt the hand of the Lord in my life, but I never beleived them, thinking, "If you only knew." 4 months after I came to know Christ, I became very ill, I thought I was going to die, I couldn't speak, I couldn't focus my eyes, I could hardly breathe, and I tried to get out of bed one day, I fell on the floor and it took about half an hour to get back into bed. I had no insurance and no money, and after about a month of being sick (I lost 30 pound in that month of being sick) like that, I prayed "God, if it is your will that I do not recover from this illness, and that you are done with me, go ahead and take the ghost, let me die, my life is in your hands, but if it is your will that I survive, then I pray that you would heal me." And immediately, I started to heat up, like I was placed in an oven. I thought God was done with me, but it turns out, minutes later I had made a full recovery and could walk and talk again. I have not been ill since, and that was several years ago. I now feel that I may be called into ministry...

The most radical change has taken place in me, the way He took the gifts He put in me, but fitted them to His Glory and Honor.That to me is the most amazing thing.

Old things have passed away and all things became new. This is how it has been for me. I am not the same. I have new wants and new attitude.
