I have had something so heavy on my heart and shoulders that i have lost all my Joy. I know that although I have not been going to church as I should, I have been in the prayers of family and friends, i went back to church today, the devil keeps trying to tell me that I am not ready yet to return to church, this has caused heartaches in my family and for that I am truly sorry. My nine year old niece (Beth) never gave up on me coming back, she just kept praying and asking her friends to pray for me, and she would call on sunday morning and ask if I was going to church, but still I kept putting it off. Then a couple of weeks ago I had a drastic change in my life that made me know that I need to be back in church with my family and friends that care about me and my soul. God never turned his back on me , I simply forgot to praise him in the storm. My four year old nephew (Dalton) was talking about something that happened at "our church" and then he stopped telling the story and he looked very serious and he said "do you even go to our church anymore?" He then informed me that he could not "sleep at my house any more on saturday nights because he has to go to church, I told him I understood , and then with his head down and a very serious big boy look he said "I just dont understand why you dont just go to church" well with that said, you ofcourse realize that I had no choice I had to get back to work for the Lord. Pastor Tommy felt the need to call my husband and I up to the altar and pray for us... and it felt like that heavy burden on my heart and heavy load on my shoulders were just lifted away and as it was lifted I heard my brothers voice praying with me and he was crying and I could feel his burden being lifted too. I do know that without God I am nothing and he is my saviour and I will praise him like never before. thank you to all that have prayed for me through my storm and I would like you to keep me in your prayers, I will keep all of you in my prayers, my church family and friends mean alot to me.
