I’m quite new to forums, this is my first one actually, so please be patient with me.....I’ll learn. I put a post on yesterday Light on Light off. Well, God in His infinite wisdom, knowing I am still on milk, fed me a beautiful and gentle answer on how to respond to those who Gossip about others. Guys, I’m still in awe of how He reaches us. On the very day of my conversion I was all over the place, I didn’t even own a Bible anymore....so I spent that first night, on my knees in prayer, into bed, out of bed and on my knees again, in out in out for about 3 hours because I kept remembering all the sins I’d committed and wanted to repent, because as a non believer I really didn’t think I was a sinner, I thought I was a pretty good person, ....Sinners murdered, stole, were fraudulent, adulterous, bore false witness etc.... Oh boy, did I get a wake up call that day . That first night I cried rivers, but the first words of comfort and guidance He spoke to me were “Take your instruction from me, not man” .so now I focus on how Jesus responded to sinners, even though I reach out for help from Brothers and Sisters as I can’t yet quote chapter and verse, His ways, words, wisdom and gentle approach will help me keep my light shining....I mustn’t accuse, judge, persecute, criticize ....Praise be His Holy Name
