Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Amen! When I think of my life before Christ.....

.... I can hardly imagine where I'd be now! I imagine many people would think that we're off-base for saying that we couldn't make it without Him, or arrogant for asking "How do people make it through the trials without Christ?" But we know that we know that we know... and it's like reliving a miracle to remember what even my thought processes were like before receiving Christ - compared to what I know now. Just the wonderful security that I don't have to depend on my own human strength or wisdom (both of which are in short supply for me!) is enough to make me weep.

One of my biggest challenges is to continue praying faithfully, without giving in to despair, for the people in my life who are so strong that they don't recognize any need for a Savior! Sometimes I just hear the enemy whisper, "Give up - they'll never believe! You're wasting your time." I just keep asking the Lord to make sure and not let me stop praying! I remember how my uncle prayed for me for so many years - (and I guess I won't know until Heaven how many people have prayed for me) - and now, he's been blessed to see the fruit of his prayers!

Praying God will meet all your needs out of the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus!

Blessings in Him,
