Re: It is amazing how God gives you what you really need

I have always been in the church in some way. I was introduced to Jesus by my Gram when I was 5 years old. Growing up Catholic, God was a very important part of my life. I got saved when I was 23 years old. It is funny that my mother thought I joined a cult, because I was so into Jesus (more so then I was before) LOL

I am sorry you have to expeirence such a loss early on, but as I have learned myself, sometimes good things come out of such a loss. You found Jesus! That is always a wonderful thing.

I can really relate with the worldy things affecting me. Especially the relationship I just got out of. You can say that the guy helped suck out all the positive and godly things in my life. I know that it wasn't his fault, but mostly mine, because I made the choice in the first place.

Yes, I haven't fellowshiped in a long while. I used to fellowship regularly online in a Christian chat room a year and a half ago, but that changed due to the choices I made. It was hard for me, because I felt at times my faith was squashed since my exboyfriend was so against "organized religion". He feels that the majority of Christians around him are "fake" so it was harder for me to just enjoy God over the months, to the point I dropped it all together.

Thank you for welcoming to the room. I was trying to figure out how I could participate and engage in fellowship, without seeming to be demanding. I was really wanting to see if anyone would like to focus on a piece of scripture and give our outlooks on it and such. Almost like mini bible studies. In the past, I used to love find the little things that God placed in front of me to help with my walk.

Thanks. I chose Sacristia long ago. I love different languages, and at the time I was currently self-studing Latin and came across it. It is Latin for Sacred vessel or vessel of God. I wanted it to reflect my love and belief in God. It is a constant reminder while I am online that I AM a Christian and should always walk the walk, and not just talk the talk, if I might put it simply.

I look foward to interacting with you and others. Thank you.
