I Was In a Place That I Didn'T Belong

I Was In A Place Where I Didn’t Belong! I was in a place where I knew I didn’t belong! God’s spirit was there… But the flesh was strong! I felt alluring voices almost “overwhelm me.” There were so many temptations that surrounded me! I could feel the pull! The tugging of my heart! I knew this was going to happen! From the start! As I began to feel many voices, pulling my spirit. I wanted to run, but could not seem to do it! In one moment of hopelessness, to Jesus I cried! I couldn’t run from this! No matter how hard I tried! Just when I thought that there was not a way out! I remember what some of the Bible was about! I knew that if I cried to Jesus, he’d be there to help me! No matter the temptation! And how it tries to “trip” me! Before I was going to do something, I shouldn’t do… I heard God’s voice say; “My son, I’m here to help you!” I felt the hand of God, reach down and touch my soul! I knew that God was there, and it was time for me to go! I jumped up and out of there, as fast as I could run! Any “excitement” was gone. I was not having “fun!” Whatever temptation I gave up, was worth avoiding! A life with Jesus and family is what I’m enjoying! Thank you my Lord! For your patience and kindness! You’ve filled my life with your love and brightness!09/04/13
