I understand how you feel

[@donnajeffreys8252]

You overcome evil with good. When you see people that know you , walk right by you and doesn't speak on a regular basis ? Don't let their poor behavior upset you, don't take the bate. That's another way of being rude. Don't go out of your way trying to say hello. No don't act rude either you've got too much class for that . You already knew how small minded they'd act. Ignore them. Hold your head high, smile and enjoy your day. Choose your battles wisely. Give them to God because He sees what's happening. He knows that you USE TO go out of your way to say hello. He knows your heart is in the right place. Don't let the same thing upset you. Keep your peace. Now you're a lot stronger, what use to upset you makes you feel confident and strong now . In Jesus Mighty Name Amen

Thank you to everyone who said a prayer for my sister and sent condolences. Now, I am asking for prayers for my mother as she just lost her father. He was a 100+-year-old World War II Veteran and although he had been praying to GOD to take him, it is still painful. He did not suffer, but he had become weak and could no longer do anything for himself. He hated that we had to lift him and clean him, but I told him we loved taking care of him. He felt that he was too much of a burden to my mother. I kept reminding him that mom graduated from medical school, worked all of her adult life in the medical field, and retired from the medical college and the hospital. She was used to caring for people and she even hired a nurse to come to the house to care for him. However, he kept saying he was tired and was ready to go be with the LORD. He finally got his wish and he went in my mother's arms.

[@GhostMonkey772]

I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real it’s impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!

Chills through out the entire sermon. One of the reasons I love Joel is he speaks from his heart. When he chokes up because its something he feels deeply. His humility comes out of his gratefulness to God. You can see he truly loves God for what he does for us & him. He speaks the truth in a way of love & encouragement. As our God IS love. This sermon is the key to our destiny & our best selves. The path God has laid out for us. The greatness within that is God. Joel just gets better & better. I can see he is understanding more & more how to interpret the bible for everyone. God has laid out his path by those who loved, taught, guided him & Gods word in his own heart. Thank the Lord for Joels words of Gods encouragement & faith for us all!
