Facebook Fast Day 5

"You will seek Me and find Me when you seek for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you,' declares the Lord." Jeremiah 29:13, 14.

Friday. Yes, Friday had finally arrived and I was so thrilled. Not only is Friday my FAVORITE day of the whole entire week, but it's the most special. It has been exactly 5 days since the disabling of my facebook. And you know what? It has been easier than I expected. I really don't miss it much at all. I thought I'd probably have facebook withdrawals, but really, it's not even that big of a deal to me. Yes, I may be cut off from the world around me, but I'm SO much more connected with my Creator that it doesn't matter anymore to me. My life can be "official" WITHOUT being "official" on facebook. I'm sure some of you understand me and can even relate.

So, what has God showed me or revealed to me today? Well, today has been really long and many events have occured. I had a huge anatomy and physiology test today that really took a lot of strength out of me. I think one of the biggest blessings I received today besides singing for Jesus tonight, was in Life and Teachings class. We talked about the signs of the times and the Second Coming. Discussing these things can either make a person scared, anxious, worried, happy, or all of the above. For me, I have hope when I think of Jesus and His soon return.

People, let me tell you. You HAVE to start now establishing a relationship with Jesus Christ. It's so so so important. I cannot stress it enough. We as humans are not even guaranteed tomorrow or the next 2 hours or the next 10 minutes. That's why we HAVE to be ready for Jesus to come. Do you see this world? It's an awful place to be! Wars and rumors of wars, nation rising up against nation, people against people! These signs are happening! Jesus is soon to return!! We HAVE to be ready!! We can't wait until its "convenient" for us to start getting to know Him. Start today, start now!! I realized a couple weeks ago, that I was not walking in the footsteps of Jesus Christ. I was walking on the path that I wanted...not what God wanted for me. Don't you see? You HAVE to make time for God. I was putting everything in front of Him and my life was miserable. My cure and my hope is found is Jesus Christ. Your hope and your cure for your heart ache can be found in Him if you so allow.

Sabbath is such a great time to rest. And by resting, you can now take even MORE time to get to know Him. But don't just take time on Sabbath. You must make a daily effort to dig into His Word and get to know Him better. Surrender to Him my friends, Surrender, as my friend E says. Give it ALL to Him. Not a part, not almost all, but ALL. 100%. Give Him your whole heart and your whole life and your everything and He will direct your paths.

When you search for God, you will find Him if you seek for Him with ALL your heart. God says that He will be found by you. If that is what you want for your life, DO NOT HESITATE. Give Him your heart. He will make it new.

Happy Sabbath and goodnight world. I must get rest for another day of Praising my Jesus!
