I never thought I had another side of me. It is a part of me only God knows about. The part of me only God has control of. I never knew about it until I gave my life to Christ. No one likes this side of me because it’s not the worldly me, but the spiritual me. My eyes have been open to many new things. For too long I’ve been living with this other me that people had no problem accepting.
This other me have many things the old me never had. Like Jesus, joy, peace, love, hope, faith, grace, and many more. I never knew about any of this until Jesus found me and invited me to a better place. And now that I’m here I never want to go back to that old side of me. This other side of me can stand no matter what the world does to keep me down. This special love I feel I know can only come from God. Sometimes it seems too good to be true, but I know it is because He lives in me.
The old me felt like she had no one. But this other me know that I have Jesus on my side when the world seems to come against me. The old me wanted to do things her way and never seemed to ever get it right or thought she had it right since it was her way. But this other me have God to guide me, so I know I’m going down the right path. The old me couldn’t see anything because she lived in darkness and couldn’t see the answers to her problems. But this other me has a shining star in the darkest night. Jesus takes my hand and keeps me steady. In the face of a storm I’m always ready. This other me is strong and bold and has a love for Jesus that will never die.
With Jesus in my life I’m higher than high. And He will someday take me above where I can live in heavenly love. I can accept this other me even if no one else can. I’m more than what I thought I was. Jesus understands me better than I do or anyone else understands me. Someone who loves me.
Many times, Satan has tried to get me but through it all I’m still standing. God has given me the power to overcome anything. And whatever Satan takes from me God said He’d bless me with it a hundred times more.
So many things seemed impossible to me and God always had a way. He’s always willing to take care of me and take care of my problems. And it doesn’t cost me anything. He paid the price for my sins when He died on the cross. With Jesus there’s always a way. And if anything is too difficult for me all I must do is give it to Jesus and I know it’s already taken care of. It would be great to share Jesus because then more people will be saved and can go to heaven and live with Jesus. They will no longer have to live their life trying to get people in the world to accept them. It’s nothing like this place. It is so much better. And when you are in Christ no one can do you any harm, not even Satan.
Since I’ve lived in this other me, I never feel I must please anyone, just tell him or her about Christ. And live according to His word. I never feel I am less that who God has made me to be. And with Jesus in my everyday life, I feel so free. God never said it would be easy, but if you have the mind of Christ it will be was easy as it was for you when you were living in your old self. And whatever your heart wants, just trust in Jesus and He will bless you with that and many more.
I enjoy talking to God because I know He is always there listening and understanding me. He never criticizes me or lets me down. I love no one more than I love Jesus, because no one can treat me better than Jesus can. I can cry on His shoulder, I can tell Him my secrets, I can laugh with Him, I can get Him to understand me and no matter what I do God never thinks less of me. As long as I have Jesus in my life I know I have everything. And as long as I’m on this earth Jesus is the only one I will ever count on.
When I gave my life to Christ it was the best thing I have ever done in my life. And it is something I will never ever regret doing. And I will let Him know how much I love Him because He loved me so much that He died on the cross for me.
