I'm Jenny from MN. I love Jesus with every fiber of my being and I along with
some other Jesus Freaks have stepped it up and have started a ministry
called "Girls Gone Jesus." You can find us on Shout life or my space.
We love prayer requests and standing in the gap for people who are in heavy
combat and are under spiritual attack. If you have a prayer request feel
free to drop it to me here or email us at girlsgonejesus@yahoo.com
I was raised in the church, and after breaking my arm in gymnastics at
the age of 14 I experienced the healing power of Jesus and made him not
only my savior, but my Lord! He's the best thing that's ever happened
to me and I can't wait to meet Him in eternity. He's been closer than
a brother and more faithful to me that you can imagine.
In 1997, that started a 10 year storm in my life. My mother suffered
a massive stroke on Dec 23rd of 1997. The doctors were certain she
wouldn't make it through the night, but they didn't know God had another
plan and was going to show up! We prayed her out of coma, but there
was a long road of healing, therapy, feeding tubes, kidney dialysis,
and other critical care needed to sustain her life. Her body was frail
and had lost much of its capacity to live and the Lord took her home to
heaven on April 3rd of 2000.
That rocked my faith and the devil used this to rip the rug from under me.
I was left discouraged, depressed, grief struck. My mom was my best friend
and I wasn't sure how I was ever going to find "LIFE" again. My dad and
I never really got along; I lived with him during this whole series of
events and prayed for grace and patience. It truly is a virtue!
My mom was my best friend and a part of me died and went in the coffin
with her. Just like Lazarus, I too went to be buried in a tomb and there
was no escaping this fate unless Jesus showed up and called me out!
Just like Lazarus, I had been wrapped in graves clothes. These close
were my loss, my depression, my low self esteem, my disconnection to life,
and in essence this was comparable to what I now call a spiritual death.
From 2001-2006, I went into a very destructive rebellion. I abandoned
my faith for temporary and empty ways to deal with my problems the best
"I" knew how. I started relying on myself and my capabilities and stopped
relying on God. But we can't do anything right outside of God's presence
and His Holy Spirit dwelling in our lives, we will get it wrong every
time we walk away from His grace. I turned to drinking every night of
the week which would turn into binges, drug addictions, broken relationships
and a DUI.
All these things were only a counterfeit to supplement what I really
wanted, I wanted God, but these things separated me because I was
a sinner. Plus I was an addict; God didn't want me, a fallen, wounded
hypocrite? So I thought I would just stay messed up as much as I
could so it didn't hurt so bad. So I didn't feel the pain I was
running from. You can't out run God though! I tried it, and I ran
right into grace. I have been completely delivered and God is better
than anything this world has to offer. This world has nothing for me;
I am going to follow him. He took me out of my demise and he washed
me in His precious blood that he shed for me a sinner! He washed me
from the inside out and I praise Him everyday that I don't have to be
that lost and hurting girl anymore! Nothing in this world can satisfy
us like God being the center of our lives! If you have never asked to
receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior I hope you don't wait another
second to bow your head and ask Him in, to make Himself real to you.
You might not see the wind but you see the effects of the wind, and
God is the same way! You might now see God, but you can see HIM at
work in the hearts of Man and He's there whether you know it or not!
My heart is to tell everyone I meet that God is so good! He's given
me this new life in Him and it's the most incredible gift I could
have ever thought I could receive. I won't take it for granted and
I will use what I went through to help others through their own storm
in life and I know that what I went through wasn't a waste. Nothing
we ever have to endure is a waste, it's what makes us who we are and
makes us strong!!! God can make anything beautiful and turn anything
around! If you are going though a hard time just ask Jesus to calm
your storms, to bring you into peace and for wisdom to make it through
your trial. He's with you always, and He will never leave you nor forsake you!!!
Blessings!!!
You are most like:
You are Blue
You are cool and soothing, with a hidden spontanious side. You are deeper than most people percieve, and you care a lot for those whom you surround yourself
So I am sure you all have been watching the news and hearing about the financial crisis of our lifetime. I am sure you know people or are people being affected in some way by this and I just wanted to take a moment to put some things into perspective...

I got sick of feeling sorry for myself
