We Are Who We Are

*



We are who we are.

Which basically consists of who we were.

Who we make ourselves out to be and who we ultimately allow ourselves to become.

All from what life serves us up and of course lets not forget what we ourselves bring upon our own selves; what we are responsible for...i.e.the trouble we get ourselves into and bring upon ourselves.


Like my good old pops says all the time, "Amy when you get right down to it people cause 95% of their own problems themselves."

I happen to agree with my pops....Truth of the matter is, if we as human nature 'd creatures weren't so proud we would probably all admit what my pops said was true....or IS true!

Well getting along with my story here... I just turned 48 years old last week and I feel like it. haha. Three years ago I felt a world a different; like I wasn't sure whether I was coming or going - cathin' or pithin'.

WOW - things have changed in three years! I feel like I have aged so much. While at the same time, I feel so much younger. I can't explain it really. Although I do understand some of what is going on. I believe it has something to do with simply growing up. Coming to grips with reality. Taking responsibility for my life. Maturing. Getting to really know my creator....intimately.

One thing for sure....One thing that stands out the most....I have peace.

Don't get me wrong here....I have had peace before. Always had the peace of God in my life when I needed it. Not like this though.
This is a new thing for me to experience. This peace is different. I have never experienced anything like it before.
This peace is unrelenting, unwavering, unmoving and has absolutely nothing to do with me or my actions. I don't have to ask for it, believe for it, desire it, nothing.

I believe that I am truly experiencing God's peace in my life in a whole new level, like I have never before and it is refreshing and liberating.

Why?

Well I'd be lying if I said I didn't ask that question . But it really doesn't matter as to why.

I don't know exactly "why". I do know that I have come to a new place in my life, in my relationship with my creator; God Almighty. I have by faith, given everything; all my hope and dreams; all fears and disappointments all my desires and joys all my talents and goals in life. I have given every beat of my heart, every breath I take; dedicated every move I make and step I take; very thought and intention of my heart to HIM...even my free will...to the Glory of God the Father in Heaven and Jesus His Son.

I have done so with new vitality so That I can some how truly become a living sacrifice that is honorable and pleasing in the sight of God the Father in Heaven.....made in the likeness and image of His Son.

I do truly believe that my, (what some have called my obsession) new found "way" of living is truly, if not thee reason for this new found peace at the very least one of the major reasons for it.

In my quest to die to self and live wholly devoted to Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Our Messiah) I am learning to not hide but live as "who" I am in "whole" not in part.

I urge all of you...(the few that will come upon this and read it) :) to do the same.

Live your Life as a whole person.

Wholly pleasing to God.

Clean before HIM.
Knowing that HE created YOU in HIS image and that HE loves YOU sooooo much that while YOU were yet a sinner HE sent HIS ONLY begotten Son to come and die upon a cross to be living sacrifice so that YOU would not have to die!!!

Be Made WHOLE IN JESUS!! Come be re united to your heavenly Father...He loves you! ALL of you!

If you do not already know God....or Jesus as personally. Which you can by the way. I would be very happy to introduce you! Please feel free to e-mail me @ AmyColleen@gmail.com or send me a message here.....or simply ask the Lord Himself to introduce Himself to you. He will. It's not complicated....just a simple prayer prayed in faith is all that is necessary.
Something along the lines of ..."Heavenly Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen."

If you do ...please let me know! :)
