John 6:29 (NKJV) 29 Jesus answered and said to them, \u201cThis is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent<\/span>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As I sat in the pew, listening to a Pastor explaining\u00a0to me and others what God had done for us, it became very personal.\u00a0Nothing could keep me in that seat, no matter how scared I was, when he called us to the front to accept\u00a0Jesus as our Savior.<\/p>\n

It was like a spring shot me up out of my seat. And it wasn’t until I was actually up front that I realized I was standing in front of a bunch of people.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Was I scared? Yes. I remember my legs shaking and I was hoping that no one else could see it.\u00a0I was\u00a0a child, but I had found my answer!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I believed what God was speaking to my heart that day, through that minister, and everything in me wanted to live the rest of my life with\u00a0Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Matthew 11:29 (NKJV) 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I took on His yoke that day. Did I do everything right from that moment on? No. Before I even left that building that day I probably did something wrong. No one\u00a0will get it perfect, except for His Son, Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n

I make my share of mistakes. But, what I did find, and what stays with me, is His rest in my soul. I know I have Someone with me, to help me through the good times and the bad times.<\/p>\n

I learned to never give up. As long as He is with me, I keep trying, learning from all I\u00a0go through. And never do I\u00a0think\u00a0for\u00a0one moment that He will push me\u00a0off because of\u00a0my messes. He will stick with me, no matter what.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Hebrews 13:5 (NKJV) 5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, \u201cI will never leave you nor forsake you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Just as Christ does not forsake us, we should not forsake others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We are all learning. And we have to understand that we need each other. We shouldn’t look down at or frown upon others if they make a mistake. Instead, we need to give them our arms, wrapped tightly around them.<\/p>\n

If it’s good enough for God to do for us, then it’s good enough for us to do for others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
