About Me

My photo
My names is Sophia, and I love God with all of my heart and he loves me just the same. I love,love and I want to share Gods love with everyone I encounter,wheter its through my actions, words,or simply a smile. I love talking because words are powerful. I believe everyone has a story, something to bring to the table, and that we are all unique in our own ways. I love to talk to everyone, from the clerk at the grocery store, my neighbor, family, friends and coworkers. When people talk they are sharing their feelings, this is not something to be overlooked rather something to rejoice over, to listen to and to value. I choose to live with an attitude of gratitude despite my surroundings, and even when my surroundings make it hard to smile, the good lord always creates in me a renewed and rejoiced heart.

Jesus Died for you too, don't eliminate yourself

 ghandi stated, “Be the Change you wish to see in the world”….or my favorite…By Mr. Bob Marley, “Don’t worry be happy”. How will you be happy? How will you make change? Will you Google up your horoscope and hope on the stars and their illusive authoresses to map out your life while you continuously go at it hard on the road to hell. Will you continue to have sex? Will you smoke all the pain away? Will you party all your sorrows down the drain? Will you listen to an Idolize Weezy and Nicki Minaj and follow them instead of Jesus?

Self condemnation. None of us want to believe it. We all want to point the finger.’ Well you know, I only do this because of the way I was raised.’ Okay. Go ahead now, fill yourself up. Go find a job, find a husband, find a degree, make some money. Be the star in your life, and then go medicate yourself on anti- depressants and deny Gods existence only because you don’t want to admit that maybe your wrong. You don’t want to admit that maybe, it’s not about you. You sell out into this realm of “Secular Humanism”. ‘We are all here by chance, and we all create our own purpose . We all create our own truth.’ Blah blah blahhh blahhhh blahhhhh.

 I tried that. I tried to read the self help books, I tried everything. You know what I found. I found myself on my knees. I found myself broken. I found myself crying out to the God I had once denied, or belittled. I found that my search was finished at the cross. I found love. I found my Heavenly Father. I found purpose and direction. I found family in the body of Christ. I found happiness. I found truth. I found myself repenting. I confessed my sins, and then I turned away from them.For years I was living a life all about me, finding my truth. I was broken, I was empty and weary. I was on the verge of suicide. I hated who I had become. I realized how self destructive, living for me can be. I know that the words I am writing seem a little harsh, but there’s no way going around it. Make the choice. Choose happiness, chose peace, chose Jesus. We all need love, we all need Jesus.

            Friends Jesus Died on the cross for us. Jesus died on the cross for YOU. He sees the pain, and the torment you have. He can’t stand to watch you go down that road anymore. He longs for you. He delights in you. He died so that maybe you would believe in Him. He died so that maybe you would live for him. He died so that you would turn to him. Do you long to be fought for? Open your eyes, Jesus fought for you. He is jealous for you.Do you long for someone to remove that weight you hold so heavily on your shoulders? Open up a Bible. That book was written for you. Love letters, from your one true love. Jesus loves you, he wants to take care of you, and hold your hand throughout your life. Let him in. Once you let go of yourself, you will find Him. Once you find him, once you fall in love with him you won’t ever go back. Seek God and he will come near. Seek God, by meditating on his word. Read the Bible. Reach out to fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Attend Church. Embark on the journey, the greatest journey of your life. You will find yourself coming alive. You will find that before you knew Jesus you were dead. You were quickly perishing away and you were a slave to sin and unhappiness. When you pray to God, when you thank him for the greatest sacrifice of all, when you take up your cross momentarily and live for Him that is when you truly are alive. God will grant you with Holy Spirit which will dwell inside your heart and guide you through. Listen. I urge you to. Invite God to write your story. Fall in love with your creator. Live for Him. <3
