My Journey to Bible Truths
natalie:
As recently as 2 weeks ago I was having a very difficult time dealing with the options I have been presented with for my spiritual journey. I have long felt there was something 'seriously missing' from church. After being told that I wasn't good enough to ever be saved, it nearly seemed pointless to try. After attending church all of my life, and recently relocating it's nearly impossible to find somewhere that I feel like I belong. The church that I found here in Clarksville is very laid back on their beliefs (after attending numerous churches in the area). Every Sunday after service I would leave not feeling inspired or that I had moved any closer to God in my journey. I was in nearly a desperate need for an uplifting message, a message of hope!
I found bible-truths unintentionally 6 days ago. As soon as I began reading I felt the weight of the world was lifted off of my shoulders. I knew in my heart what I was reading was on the right track. What a glorious revelation that ALL MEN WILL BE SAVED! I have been lighthearted, on top of the world. I realize there is no need to worry about anything!!! God has it all taken care of and I have no control whatsoever! And it doesn't matter because I am in the care of the greatest! I have systemic lupus (terminal form). I have never blamed God for my illness or been angry at Him. I have heard many people 'blame' God for their loss or their illness. But, it's always been in my heart and mind that there is a reason for everything.
I am so very elated and blessed to have found this place. I am very thankful for Mr Smith sharing the honest scriptures that is God's Word! My life has changed, my attitude has changed. I will continue to read every day and enrich my journey as much as I possibly can growing closer to Christ.
One last note I would like to share is that since I found bible-truths I have shared these writings with my family as well as friends. No one that I have shared these with (with exception of my husband) is of like mind, nor do they believe it. It saddens me that such a wonderful gift, they refuse to receive. But, just like all things God has it taken care of and I will leave it in His hands.
Wishing you all a very blessed journey!! Thank you for allowing me to share a brief bit of mine. I have read several prayer requests and I will continue to pray for all of my newly discovered friends in Christ!
God Bless!

Welcome Natalie,
Thank you for your intro. We get to relive our own awaking each time someone new introduces themselves. It is sad that almost all in the church do not want to here this great news.
Blessings

Hello Natalie,
A hearty welcome and hug from george. It is tough to know the truth and not be able to share it with people you love yet.
I keep trying with my closest Person daily and get smacked down. It is painful in the extreme when you want your partner
to share and have the Peace that The Good News of The Gospel brings. We all must remember though that God Has
already made the way for All to come to this knowledge at the perfect time for Him.
Love and Grace,
george.

Praise God for such a great testimony! Thanks for sharing that.
God's grace is so great that even the chief of sinners (Paul) can be saved. I'm so glad to hear that you were freed by the truth of God's word. I've also unsuccessfully tried to show what I have learned to others but I learned that unless God is opening their eyes they will not see and I must be patient and humble. I will pray for you in your spiritual journey.
God Bless,
Steve

Dear Natalie.....wow, what a testimony. Thank you for taking the time and writing it down. I sense sincerity and gentleness about you, which is uplifting. We can all share our own shipwreck stories of telling family and friends about the truth......never the less, it is all in Gods hands......praise be to Him.
Love
