In His Presence

"You have made known to me the paths of life; you fill me with joy in your presence." Acts 2:28 I have decided to start a blog because I have been finding so many other blogs so inspiring over the last few days. Hopefully, this one will be inspiring to you!

What a Wonderful Day!

I have had such a spiritual day! I am been blessed so many times. This morning I listened to the St. John's Citadel's church service on-line. (If anybody is interested : it comes on at 9:30 Newfoundland time, at this website... www.radionewfoundland.net.) It was wonderful. The band played Grace Alone and it was so beautiful. Then the sermon was based on John 8. I actually read this story yesterday as part of my devotions. It the story where they bring the adulterous woman to Jesus and say that she should be stoned. But Jesus writes something on the ground and says that if you have no sin then you be the first the throw the stone. Nobody can throw the stone. Then Jesus tells the woman that her sins has been forgiven. It's just an amazing story and I recently watched on the movie, "The Greatest Story Ever Told". . . it just brought the whole story to life for me. But wow... Jesus loves each and everyone of us. And through his grace, although we are so undeserving at times, we are able to have a wonderful relationship with him and He is able to wash all of our sins away. It was just a blessing!

Then since Sunday School was cancelled this morning because of the weather, I went in my room and read from the book "Heaven" by Randy Alcorn. It is an amazing book saying that we should have Heaven-Centered lives. Reading the book just made me stand in awe of Jesus! All I could say was WOW!

After I finished reading the chapter I decided to listen to a cd I own and three songs played in a row. . . "Nothing but the Blood of Jesus" by Chris Rice, "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing", and "There is a Redeemer" by Keith Green. I have to say I felt so spiritually fed today. I felt so blessed and so close to Jesus. His presence definitely is amazing... imagine going to Heaven to live with Him!

This weekend I had the opportunity to look at my spiritual growth as I did the full case papers for my application to CFOT. I just was amazed by the different things that have happened in my life that have led me closer to God. It has been a wonderful day!

In Faith,
Rebecca
