Truedog, Boy have you been around! And I sure have too. I guess that's why I'm very content to stay put. I've traveled over most of the 50 states, and seen just about everything I've wanted to. It's funny that so many of us have moved around so much for various reasons, that it's hard to find anyone over, say 30, who lives in the town they were born in.

Sometimes I think I could write a book about my life, but no one would believe it. But It's all of these things that have lead me to the place I'm at now geographically and Spiritually.

To say I have no regrets would not be true. And I have learned some hard lessons from my mistakes. But if I have learned nothing else, I've learned to trust in the Lord, and he will get me through the situation, even at times when I could not comprehend that a solution was even possible, or see a light at the end of the tunnel.

I've prayed for The Lords help. And for some reason I'm truly amazed and humbled when I realize that He really did answer my prayers. Even though He said He would. I feel so unworthy. Then I remember that it is only by the grace of God and the Blood of Jesus, that any of us are worthy. And I feel more Love and more Peace than I could ever explain.

There were also years of guilt and regret about what I should have done, but didn't. And things I shouldn't have done, but did. This kept me under a cloud of depression that I couldn't shake. I was at a meeting and as I listened to the speaker it was as though she had lived the same life as me. I went up for prayer, and as they prayed for deliverance for me, it was as if chains were being broken from my ankles, wrists and neck. I was completely free. I realized that the devil was keeping me in this bondage of guilt and remorse, and I needed to be delivered from this. The devil creeps up on us in such subtle ways that sometimes we don't even realize it. Sometimes I feel myself falling back into that, (The devil knows my weak spot) and I remind myself that I am FREE by the grace of God and the Precious Blood of Jesus. It's truly humbling. The Lord has always been there for me and He always will. Nothing compares to the promise I have in Him. Praise God!

He will be there with us and get us through whatever trials we go through in this world.

God Bless You, My Friend,
Colleen
