Today was my turn to teach on the bible study prayer line. The bible reference is found in Revelation 22:14. I grew up in a spiritual household. My mom had each of her 4 daughters sit in a circle 4 prayer time. We attended Church service regularly. Mom even sent all her girls to Catholic skool. 1996 I got baptized and accepted CHRIST at the age of 18. Being so young I had a long way to go in my spiritual growth. At that age I wasn't thinking about nothing but having fun. In 2005 or 2006 (sad I can't remember) I received my calling for Church leadership. I approached my Pastor showing interest. We met several months for training classes. Months later I was ordained a Deaconess (female Deacon). In 2007 I gave my Pastor a letter of resignation. I felt I was not spiritually mature to take on such a role. I was still living a life of partying and satisfying the flesh. I left that Church & just drifted from Church 2 Church. I prayed for GOD to lead me to a Church I could grow with and make my home.

Jan. 2008 GOD led me to More Like CHRIST Christian Fellowship Church. GOD answered my prayer blessing me a Church home. GOD knew what I needed for my spiritual growth. 1 year later I'm teaching bible study, 1 year later I'm teaching Sunday Skool to the youngins, 1 year later I'm singing as a soprano in the choir. 1 year later I am More Like CHRIST. I look back over my life, where I came from. The seed my mother planted years ago is sprouting fruitfully. It took a long time for the growth but it's all coming together for the glory of GOD. Throughout the years I found myself making mistakes in my Christian walk. Good news is that GOD is in the cleaning business. It is good to know that HE will cleanse us of our unrighteousness, allowing us to come back to HIM. We can't keep making the same mistakes. When we repent we must make a 180 degree turn away from the sin. Never going back. We as Christians have 2 set good examples for the unbelievers. We're not going to win souls if our behavior is the same as others.
