I Had Nowhere To Go But God

I Had Nowhere to Go… But God! Lost and lonely, I was often bewildered. There were life’s problems I shouldered. I was empty inside and at my “wits end.” There was no one around when I needed a friend. I thought about “ending it all.” I had nowhere to go. Life was rather unpleasant, boring and DULL! I was living for each moment and what pleased me. The people nearby made fun of and teased me. Then one night, I cried to God in my desperation. I decided to call out to him and give an invitation! I give an invitation for him to please help me. Would he come? No one could tell me! As I prayed, a gentle peace entered my mind. I knew this was God and this was my time! A time to be forgiven of a life “messed up.” A time for God’s love to completely fill me up! As I felt his love and hope all around me… This God I didn’t know, came and found me! I’m so thankful for him and his loving care. I don’t know what I’d do if he wasn’t there! I invite you to accept this God that I received. Won’t you put your faith in him, and believe? This wonderful God changed me from within! He’s me precious Lord, savior and friend! By Jim Pemberton 01/30/15
