Newfound Commitment

lilmama · 08-25-2005, 11:29 AM

Hi everyone. I decided today is the day that I return to the Lord. I was adopted at age 5 and my dad is a pastor as well as two of my sisters. I have not had the life that would be typical that of a pastor's child let alone a christian. I had a lot of hurt in my childhood and that led to anger and resentment. I was able to turn that part of my life around with the grace of God. When I was in the army, I turned away from that love that I had for God and fell out of His glory. I was drinking constantly and have sex outside of marriage. Now that I am married and have two beautiful children, I know I need to get my heart right with God. I know that He can mold me into the person that I desire myself to be.
I have yet to find a church to go to but I think this weekend that will change. We just moved to WA state and I haven't explored churches here yet. I know that there is one out there for me though. I have to do this for me and for my spiritual health. I need to teach my girls about the Lord and how to live like Him. So today is the day that I give my heart back to the Lord and become whole again.
Also, if there is anyone out there who would like to start some type of Bible study with me to help me grow in the Lord I would love that.
Thanks for listening to me.
