Thank you, Suzanna, for a beautiful testimony of your faith walk with Jesus. It is wonderful to hear how you are not only experiencing our Lord in your personal walk every moment, but also how you are powerfully sharing His love with others you meet. I pray the Lord Jesus continues to shine brightly through you as He has so obviously been doing, and that you continue to be filled with powerful manifestations of His Love and Power to sustain you and to share as a testimony of God’s glory with all people, and especially those who are still in darkness. I ask these things in Christ’s holy name. Amen.

Hi there,
I surrendered my life to Jesus 2011 Jan and my life was transformed just like Nicki when I praise and worship the lord i fell intense heaviness and electricity in my arm yes the Lord manifests himself to his children he is real the bible is real what does it take to get close to him when you spend time reading praying and thinking how you can further his kingdom I don’t watch secular TV waist of time and most of the the time inappropriate visuals for a christian you must love God with all your mind and soul and when you put his desires before yours he is there it is a wonderful feeling as Nicki said he is there with you and feel him in your body just to give you an encouraging example one night i was coming home late in a train station and I heard these groans i looked to my side and saw a homeless beggar on his knees with his head down and arms up holding a hat to collect money I walked to him gave him money and talked about Jesus and how he loves him and wants to heal him and take him out of this situation but he needs to take that first step he said thank you for reminding me yes I am a sinner and i need to repent when I walked away i felt this intense tightness and heaviness go down my arm the same feeling when I pray worship and praise him to be intimate with Jesus he expects commitment I walk with such peace and hope and I hope this helps people to draw close to Jesus.

Every year when people are making ther resolutions I pray that I will get closer everyday with my Lord.I get closer to Him by prayer, reading and serving inwhat he wants me to do. Some place do not have His Word, but I do and can enjoy my time with Him.. i also do a soaking in prayer either myself or with another friend and let the Holy spirit fill me to over flowing of His goodness.

Thats wonderful to do all those things but What if those are steps to know about jesus rather than know jesus. Jesus said come to me and you will never be hungry or thirst. So I belive what your step program says is religon. its still good but not satisfying to my soul

My life has been moving in circles eversince i got married.Things seem to have been better before i tied the knot than they are now.My husband and i have become merely housemates and i have been very worried also because i am jobless and jobss eems to be stuck on the air.I made a decision today that i am not going to worry about what is happening but i am going to rededicate my life to Christ and seek His Kingdom once again and develop a very close relationship with God.I want too to love God tooo much like Niki says.I am hoping that things will change and life will become worth living for me once again.I qoute for myself,
? “from today onwards i declare that my life will never be the same again,i have decide to rededicate my life to Christ, to start again seeking THe KIngdom of God and see what is in store for me.It is about God not about me.’

I Love God deeply. Truly do. What I have realized is that because He knows I love him deeply he has manifested himself in awesome ways. For example I know when he is around me when my hands begin to feel electric-like feelings. I will feel this cool breeze in the dead center,middle of my hands and feet. Sometimes my mouth will get heavy or numb when I praise his name aloud or worship him. Sometimes I feel his love soo much that I become filled with tears of love for him. I also will get so weak during prayer that i have to lay down while I worship him. One time I felt so great electric like feelings in my body and hands that I felt my hands move without my effort. I was so shocked and amazed that this Jesus Christ is soo real. So So So real that it makes me afraid sometimes and comforted to know I have such great power that loves me. The secret to having this closeness with God is actually replacing the occasional stupid every day thoughts and worldly attention with silent worship in your head. Thats what I did. Anyone can do this. Probably if we all tried we would see some pretty neat stuff that blows our minds always like how he did it to me!. Yes I am a Christian and I have never been happier in my life! Nothing no longer troubles or worries me because I tell God to handle it and I keep repeating Jesus will handle it over and over until the worry thought goes away.Boy No man, husband, father, wife, girlfriend or any human being can love like Jesus, trust me about that! That man is sooooo awesome no words can describe him!!!! I So Love HIM!!!! Tooo Much!!!

Marylou,
Its all about choosing to follow him and his ways, I have been much the same as you for many years. You can probably ask yourself if you believe there has been a time when you truly think he’s left you. The answer will probably be no. If you have asked him into your life he NEVER leaves and you will always be aware of him in some capacity. Don’t forget HE draws US and not the other way round, we respond to his calling. So you can be assured if you are thinking about him, its because HE is putting it in your heart to do so. He is seeking a relationship with all of us. I totally understand the vicious circle that one can get stuck in. It seems like a cycle where you have a blitz on seeking Him (usually at a time of need!) and then the enthusiasm somehow fades. No opportunity is wasted by God, but the choice is to respond to Him and KEEP responding through prayer/reading the bible. This naturally goes hand in hand with repentance and the knowledge that you are out of synch with God. Even conviction of sin comes from Him. Essentially we are useless until he begins his work in us. I’ve just gone back to the church I used to go to 20+yrs ago, and because I showed a choice and move towards his calling, even though it was an internal battle to do so, I have noticed changes already in me, but i have to keep pushing on seeking a deeper relationship with him.

hope this gives you a little encouragement
