God always has a purpose
God is a purposeful God.
Before I received eternal life I was full of anxiety, grief, and disappointments. Now I have inner peace, comfort and joy, and I fully trust in God's plan.
Even before I could breathe my first breath there was a battle over my life. I was to be aborted, discarded as a mistake, rejected because of someone else's actions. But God's purpose over my life prevailed and I was birthed. As an adult I made some incorrect choices that led to rejection and emotional abuse. When I no longer had any strength in my spirit or physical body to continue living, I cried out to the Lord (I waved my white surrender flag so to speak). It was then that God reminded me that I had purpose and if I allowed Him to be my Lord and Savior He would lead me. He removed me from the personal situation I was in and He has renewed my life. He reminds me that I had a purpose by being born and that, until my last breath, I still have His purpose. He has taken care of my financial needs and my kingdom prosperity. I know for sure that just as He has taken care of me here on earth I will also be sharing much joy with Him in the eternal life.
When I discovered how to have eternal life and I began to live differently. I began to see myself differently (with the love that I felt from Him) and I began to be able to view others with compassion. I also began to submit my will to His.
Now that I have eternal life I am no longer controlled by anxieties nor fears and I fully trust God with His plans over my life.
A few years back I lost my house. After living in the place I called home for over 10 years it was now gone. My memories, my belongings, my future plans were taken from me. At first I was lost, confused and hurt but it did not take long for me to begin thanking and praising the Lord for the new things He was working on in my life. Although I still have not been able to purchase another home, I do not live in fear nor am I anxious about tomorrow. The Lord has provided me with shelter, food, a great job and even an education. The world took something away, but God will give me something new. Hallelujah! There is no fear in my heart, there is no worry. I know, without a doubt in my mind, that the Lord is working on my future home.
If I were to die right now, I know for certain that I would go to heaven. I have accepted Jesus in my life and repented for my sins. In addition, I have yielded my character to His and submitted my will to Him.
Your testimony matters too
