Follow Jesus? Really? Why?

 It was time for me to make a decision and I finally, abruptly realize I hadn't involved God in this and even further, it wasn't even God's idea.  I realize I'm never watching and looking for God's ideas, I'm only interested in whether He approves my ideas.


We're not supposed to be walking with God. I think we're supposed to be following God, and it has a whole completely different basis, a completely different point of view.  As an autist, I think in pictures, and I believe I'm going to start picturing myself literally following God, watching for directions and instructions and encouragement and knowledge and foresight and help and support  And we'll see what else. 4.17.26  If you are saved, Pray for me, please. Join me?


Again. If you're not yet sure of your eternal future (which starts at the moment of your acceptance) I will post my salvation statement, dictated by God and approved by two Baptist ministers.

Salvation Statement

  Truly Believe 10.2024           “Why are we here?”   God made us for a relationship with Himself, a relationship meant to carry us into eternity.

God's Intended Life for Me

Slowly, consistently, gently, work toward producing a setting which can sustain the life that God intended for me.  Allow His true meaning (physical and emotional) for my life to thrive. Let Prayer and Gratitude survive.  Make them a centerpiece. Stop constantly and consciously surrounding myself with negative memories of my past.  Let God’s intended life for me take hold and grow. Positive , loving , God-Centered Peacefulness and Gentleness .  Let go of all the negative situations I surround myself with. Shun human standards. Meditate and pray, making choices about my actions beforehand to lessen the harshness of my autism. Look to other Christian women as examples. Always be aware of being under His gentle, loving wing. He is our Father and He truly loves us. Never forget, He made us for the purpose of having a relationship with Him.
