My heart's concern is to hold fast to God's promise so that I will not fall short of His rest

About Me

.. ..I edited my profile at Free Christian Layouts , check out these Christian Myspace Layouts!
"I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, no one comes to the Father except through me". (John 14:6)
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall never perish but have eternal life (John 3:16)
I will not forget that I was once overwhelmed by the waves of death and terrified by the torrents of destruction. I remember when hell had me in its grasp. I was trapped--without hope and without God in the world. But, in my distress, I callled out to God for mercy. I laid my soul bare before Him and cried out for forgivness. My cry for help came before Him and He heard me.
He stood to His feet and shouted in defiance of the enemy. He made His proclamation that the enemy cannot have me. My Lord shouted from heaven in a voice like thunder. He sent His arrows and scattered the enemy. He sent His brightness and confounded them. He broke my bonds and set me free! He stood up and fought for me. He took my troubles as His own and made intercession for me. He defeated all of my enemies and gave me His victory and His strength.
He delivered me because He loves me. He delights in me as the apple of His eye.
I will walk in the ways of my Father. I now live according to God's way of living and thinking. I imitate His actions like a true disciple. I am firmly resolved to never turn aside from His statutes and His ordinances. I set my face like flint to live my life like a child of the Most High God.

I'd like to meet:


"I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not behold Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you, and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you." (John 14:16-18)

"All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." (Matt. 28:18-20)

"The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you." (John 14:26)

"When He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come." (John 16:13)
