I Know Where To Lead Me Today Essay

AGAPE I actually don’t know where to begin, so I am asking God to lead me in this assignment today. “To whom much is given much is required”- Luke 12-48. In short I have overcome and I have gone through and I’m still going through and today that means I have love and truth and justice and character. A few years ago, I lost a high paying job; I worked very hard to get to that leveling/ position “behavior interventionist”. In short I had problems paying my rent I ran home, with my son; not because I wasn’t working or didn’t have money,. I had lost my courage; I thought something was wrong with me as a woman of God and as a person. I started to make wrong decisions (vision) after wrong. Although I was much younger and still fairly young; I didn’t …show more content…
So today I don’t plan on taking any breaks, in life or starting over but pushing and reaching a point where I thrive. I always have written things down, I have aspirations to serve the community especially those who have lost children, homes, and jobs shelter and transportation soc-economic systems and other artistic avenues have given me a clear vision, while being homeless; and still serving and helping others who aren’t with their parents. I know I’m not with my son, at this time- he’s with his father we don’t speak at all; if ever, he isn’t very nice to me and I’m not even sure what I did to him; but God is love; we have a 50/ 50 custody order that we don’t abide by; well (he) but God will make it all good in the end he always, has -and that is partly my testimony in itself; he always will. I just pray for him and balance; I wish it wasn’t this ways I just don’t have the finances to better us at this time; my mind and spirit have not been the same, since I have not seen my son. Everyday life has been hard; but I chose to keep the faith be smart educated and learn and be the person, I dreamed of becoming, for him my lord my son , my family and community and myself...and many generations to …show more content…
I use to see and become that. I believe in success and love, and I know completing my education is very imperative to ones future and family dynamic and community, that is why I’m here to complete my education. I am going to start my own nonprofits; I understand my self and family dynamic, in turn, I 'm here to help others and, enrich the lives of others, who need help or who have special needs or disabilities, I’ve never been this honest in short, and told much about this situation but its where I am at and been these last few years and now I’m ready to jump back in , thank you, Bless you.

    My downfall was a turning point in life but it was the battle that God put in my path in order to change my ambitions. From the day that the University asked me to consider taking a break, and to five years from now I always recall the day I prayed inside the chapel of st basil and asking our lord Jesus that “if there ever would be a time in which you think I would be strong and ready to come back and ask that you do it with the best intentions of my heart”. Today is that day and I can only hope to alter the story of my life once more.…

    “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way” these are the words of Viktor Frankl that have fueled me within the last few years. After traumatically losing my leg in an accident I did not lose my positive attitude toward life or my desire to help others, I choose my own way to continue the path I was following before this tragedy struck. From the age of 18 as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) to age 25 working as a Mental Health Associate (MHA) at a hospital, I chose to lead a life of service. My drive to assist others as a CNA would be the catalyst for me discovering that I wanted to be a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. It was through my work that I discovered the common ground of suffering, but also the resilience of the human spirit.…

    Today I went to church and was inspired to write… The sermon was about a book called chasing the lion and hence the sermon series is called chasing the lion. My preacher talked about how the book tells others to chase the impossible, like other series he talked about what is our passion or what breaks your heart, so I’ve have thought about it and talk about with my sister and its people… Not just everyday people, but ones that find themselves lost and because of life chooses whether it be theirs or others in their lives, they feel hopeless and unwanted or even undeserving. Why would this be my passion? What breaks my heart?…

    This paper is the reflection of my learning and practice in the past few weeks in the area of resistance, sin and forgiveness. I also reflect my CRFs here. Resistance of the spiritual director and directee is an important area that I need to learn and I have to equip myself with possible ways to deal with it. Ruffling defines resistance as "an unconscious response that is part of all normal growth in which the person avoids some issue, some experience, or some insight by some form of avoiding behaviour." People have resistance because they are afraid of undesirable changes.…

    Over the course of the last four years, my life has experienced some pretty drastic changes. I know that everyone is bound to make little changes here and there over the course of four years. However, with the exception of a very few things, my life is the polar opposite of the way that it used to be, thanks to my son, Bourbon. I knew things would be different, but I had no idea just how different, and although he was not planned, I truly believe that God’s timing was perfect. Life before Bourbon was filled with selfishness to say the least.…

    Meaning Of God's Glory

    In the 2002 movie, Left Behind 2: Tribulation Force, an angel of the Lord appeared to the two main characters at the Wailing Wall, prior to launching a plan against the antichrist and said, “May the glory of the Lord be upon you” (Van Heerden & Lalonde, 2002, scene 12). While the characters in the movie comprehended what the angel of the Lord was communicating, the average viewer, more than likely, did not. As the movie unfolded to the climactic end, fairly obvious was how the magnificence of God’s glory manifested through the words, actions, and personalities of the main characters; hence, it was the Glory of the Lord that allowed each character to fulfill a role within the calling (Barkalow, 2008) to lead others to Christ during the tribulation.…

    On August 26, 2005, I gave my life to Christ, and it was the start of a whole new chapter of my journey. I still remember that night vividly in my head. The feelings of excitement, joy, and love were very tangible in my heart. My mom and dad were both sitting beside me on my bed while I was told the importance of this decision and how my life would never be the same. Even at 5 years old, I was aware of my decision to follow Jesus and accept him into my heart.…

    What God Means To Me Essay

    The one verse I will forever live by is Psalm 143:8, “Let the morning bring the word of Your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in You. Show me the way I should go, for to You I entrust my life”. This verse tells me that I do not need to fear about singing in front people, or fear befriending people, or fear leading others, or fear anything in this world because the moment I gave my heart to God, He continually held onto it with such a delicacy. He knows that I trust and have faith in Him, and likewise, I know He trusts and has faith in me. Many people do not think about God having faith and trust in them, but He does.…
