Gate to Gate

Gate to Gate

Life for me always felt strange, like I was not supposed to be here. Felt like an alien, who landed on the wrong planet, and was always looking for my way home.

My family was from a very Christian background. Which allowed me to explore this from their prospective, between church choirs, and church camps thought me the fundamentals of Christianity, and at the time, I wanted nothing to do with it.

So, I ran the total opposite direction, straight for the gates of Hell, I not only went straight for them, but I also stood there shaking them saying let me in. My life became a picture book of what it would look like if you had a one-way ticket straight to Hell. Drugs, hard rock, and doing all sorts of behaviors that would land you in prison or worse dead. Never cared about who I hurt or had to run over to get what my greedy heart, at the time desired. There was nothing in this world I wanted more than the life the Devil was presenting me with, a life full of bliss and happiness or so that's what I thought.

Because Satan always had his grip on my life, my life was full of loss and sorrow, and this is the place he wanted to keep me, because he always knew the creator of Heaven and Earth had me long before, I arrived at Hells Gates.

This went on clear into my thirty's, and I left a path of destruction from the time, I was nine until then, the devil wanted me to feel there was no redemption for me.

Even so, Jesus had other plans for my life, and I couldn't understand how the God who created Heaven and Earth would even care that one soul was going to Hell.

No matter how many times that I went down that path failure would happen, this was the creator re-directing my life every time. and when you are no longer the devil's puppet, he gets very angry, and would cause all kinds of things that wouldn't happen under normal circumstances.

Jesus has always made his presents in my life noticeable in so many ways and at the time, I could not see his presents in my life did not mean, it was not there.

For the longest time, I could not understand why he would choose me a wretch, who wasn't worth the ground he walked on. you see in my thirty's is where I finally invited him into my heart, and that's where he began to teach me, why he needed someone like me. He began to show me the wisdom behind his glory and how he can turn any situation into his glory. Continued....

In Closing

No matter how bad you think you are, God always has a plan that leads to his glory, so do not wait until it's too late to invite him into your heart in Jesus name I pray Amen.

In the hands of the creator, he can re-create thru fire, and love and a little care.
