Truth Garage

Thank you, Jesus! Thank you, Father, for your Grace and Truth. I am forever humbled by the Truth of your Grace and Love and how You always Work for Good to those who Love You, especially when we are not even aware. I am sorry that I get lost in myself at times and think somehow that my actions stop you from working. I am sorry that I never realized it is a Blessing to follow you and be able to witness and celebrate these miracles as they occur. I will be mindful; I will act when led in Jesus Name! Amen.

I have three daughters, the youngest wasn’t two yet when it was just me and them (stories for another day). I hadn’t had intimate relations since a month or two after she was conceived. When she turned five, I had desire for intimacy with a woman and started the process. I was not following Christ, at all, as far as I was concerned. Fast forward a year or so, well into a lust filled relationship, that I will confess had me doing things I otherwise would not have. There is a phrase when a woman does things, and a man is so starved for affection, he becomes “*%&*! whipped”. David did it to the extreme just from seeing chick take a bath. Me and my woman were walking through Walmart one day and my eye caught a piece of paper on the ground. It looked familiar, several people had walked over it, so I almost dismissed it. I picked it up and sure enough it was a “money order” for 600. No Name, I.D., or receipt was attached, just a blank “money order” for 600. I immediately started laughing and saying, “I bet someone is panicking on this, we need to go to customer service and drop it off”. To which my woman assured me that will accomplish nothing. “They don’t know who bought it either, no receipt, someone is just going to pocket that”. I had a gut check. I am now aware that was the Holy Spirit and his guidance. I had been convinced to override my gut check (the Holy Spirit) because I needed to keep her happy so she will keep making me happy, so I accepted it was karma giving us a “party”. Writing this is as hard as it is to read. As we were leaving the store I saw a Lady on a mobile scooter several times and what I assumed were her grandkids, looked like High School seniors, two of them. They were not making a fuss but my attraction to them has always left me feeling that the Holy Spirit was leading me to them. While standing in the garage and whipping myself again over this, He spoke to me. “Yes, it was the Holy Spirit leading you to her. Had you been following me this is how it would have gone; As you handed her the money order saying, “Jesus got us ALL”, them two boys would have witnessed Me! They would have walked away with a spiritual marker that would grow their Faith. One of many daily miracles so many overlook, unless they are BIG. And you would not be “whipping” yourself again. I know that woman and her boys, she Trusts in Me, and she was taken care of just as you were/are/will be, stop thinking you control when and how I operate”. Naturally, this is too simple. I need to study some scripture and repent 50 more times, I don’t know, hold my breathe or something right? Nope. He showed me that Church in Cumberland, Kentucky that I hid in from those two bullies. The Pastor, a friend of His, let me hang out in that Church for several weeks. I asked him about Baptism. You’d have to be from Mars to have not heard of Jesus in them parts. The pastor spent some time with me, and I remember being so embarrassed about my clothes, but they gave me a long white rob to wear (I am tearing up writing this). My name was written in the Book of Life that day! DO YOU HEAR ME? Because of Yeshua the Christ sent by God I was Saved for all Eternity that day! I received my Lord and Savior, DIED and RESURRECTED with Him that day! He is sealed in me with the Spirit of Promise, a Pledge of my inheritance in Him, The Holy Spirit! The “gut check” so to speak, and attraction to the Lady was Him, always there, always guiding if I’ll listen. It has been a long time since then. In that time so many Blessings have occurred and been revealed in truth, not the least of which being the woman I was with, who would tell you today “NEVER, would she think it” has come to know him too! While I was not following him and satan was working overtime for evil, God used me for Good, because it was never about me and my works. It’s about Him and the Fathers work. I pray that you will start listening more as I will do the same and let’s be Fruitful and Multiply the Kingdom in Jesus Name! Amen.
