My GOD is a soveriegn holy God!!!
So, for many years God has been showing me his love...and it has been a very sweet and peaceful time:)...But, I guess I always viewed Jesus as just my close friend that I could sit down and just talk to, like I do to my dear friend Dan. Jesus should and is our dear friend...but we shouldn't belittle God as a life size friend, he is SOOO much BIGGER then that! God has so many different sides, and one of the sides I was missing was how my God is sovereign, holy, BIG, POWERFUL, TOTALLY AWSTRICKING...God, has really been teaching me reverence for Him, and a fear for Him...a good and healthy fear...The kind where you just want to hide your face and "take your sandals off so to speak", for you know you are "standing on holy ground"...It is a reverence that has, made my love for my Jesus, even DEEPER!!!...I was reading the book of Job last month, and I came across a verse that just made me fall over, and go WOW!! lol..."1 The LORD said to Job: 2 "Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct him? Let him who accuses God answer him!" 3 Then Job answered the LORD: 4 "I am unworthy--how can I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth. 5 I spoke once, but I have no answer-- twice, but I will say no more." 6 Then the LORD spoke to Job out of the storm: 7 "BRACE YOURSELF LIKE A MAN; I will question you, and you shall answer me. 8 "Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself ? 9 Do you have an arm like God's, and can your voice thunder like his? (Job 40:1-14) ...WOW!!!! it just made me think, how tiny and minuscule I really am...The Universe is ENDLESS !!!!...So big that it makes the earth look like a speck, and here I am a speck living on this speck...yet the Father knows the number of hairs on my head!! Praise Jesus!...He is ALL POWERFUL AND ALL LOVING!!!...So I would encourage you, if you are the person that has the love side of God down, make sure you aren't missing the reverence of God...or maybe you just have the reverence and law down, and you are missing the Love side of God!...I challenge you to check your heart, search out who God is!!! Amen!!!

- Happy New Year everyone!!! My wonderful sister Katee created a blog not to long ago, and she made me want one, so here I am!!...I have been learning a lot through the past few years, just taking little baby steps in my walk with the Lord...HE has so graciously taken me back under his grace and mercy, after a few of my rebellious years...I am so indebted to his mercy!! :)...Praise Jesus!!... Some of my favorite Bible versus this year are: "For who in the skies above can compare with the LORD ? Who is like the LORD among the heavenly beings? In the council of the holy ones God is greatly feared; he is more awesome than all who surround him.O LORD God Almighty, who is like you? You are mighty, O LORD, and your faithfulness surrounds you" (Psalm 89:6-8)... "Delight yourself also in the Lord: and he shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your ways unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." Psalm 37:4-5... "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)....I also have bunches more, I will add them later!!! :)...
