I'm Not Who I Was

I'm Not Who I Was ~ Brandon Heath

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" ~ 2 Corinthians 5:17 NIV

I became a born-again believer in Jesus Christ at age 29. I am so thankful that I'm not who I was.

Thank you Jesus for your MERCY!

Thank You for loving me THEN.
Thank You for loving me NOW.
Thank You for loving me FOREVER!

AMAZING GRACE!!!

Persevere in Christ!

God's love is everlasting

Let no man still the joy of your spirit

Always remember

If God takes us to it (Praise God)

He will see you through it (Thank you Lord)

Sometimes you have to go through

In order to get to

Where God is trying to bless you

Glory to His name

God is in Control

GOD’S HAND

Sometimes…

We must hurt in order to grow;

We must fail in order to know,

We must lose in order to gain.

Some lessons are learned best

Only through pain.

Sometimes….

Our vision clears

Only after our eyes are

Washed with tears.

Sometimes……

We have to be broken,

So we can be tender,

Sick so we can think and rest better,

On things more important

Than work or fun;

Trip near death,

So we can assess how we’ve run.

Sometimes…..

We have to suffer lack,

So we can know God’s provision,

Feel another’s pain,

So we can have a sense of mission.

So take my heart, my friend,

If you don’t understand today,

Instead of grumbling,

Ask God what He means to say,

In order to learn you must endure,

And learn to see the bigger picture.

In order to grow, you must stand;

Look beyond the hurt

To God’s loving hand

That takes what is good,

And gives what is best,

And on this blessed thought, rest;

As your anxious heart,

With questions, waits,

God’s hand only gives

What His loving heart dictates.

Sometimes the Lord calms the storm;

Sometimes He lets the storm rage….

And calms His child.

Better the storm with Christ…

Than the smooth waters without Him

Come Lord Jesus Come

Are you thirsty?

Longing for more of God?

Longing for freedom?

Come lay your burdens down; allow God to heal your heart.

Call out for Jesus! He will deliver you!

"You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance."
~ Psalm 32:7 NIV

Come be refreshed!!

"For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; he will lead them to springs of living water."
~ Revelation 7:17 NIV

HAVE FAITH. BELIEVE.

"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."
~ Hebrews 11:6 NIV

Your life will never be the same.
