A Salvation Post - Being even more bold than the alcohol post. What’s gotten into me?!
(Written Wednesday, September 17, 2025)
I went to Bible study today because I really needed some Jesus and connection.
It was wonderful. And I met some of the nicest women. Ive actually been attending this study for a while. But started mid summer and of course sometimes life, illness and activities keep me from going but when i do get to attend - I am ever thankful, especially when I get to sit with my friend, Connie. She totally lifts me.
This study is the Chronological Bible Study.
But I think what resonated with me the most was the connection it served.
And the story of Ezra.
Don’t ask me to repeat it. I don’t know how to capture stories that well. Especially, when they are told in minutes. But if you want to know now - ask Chris or read the book!
I have to go back and read it over and over and over.
But sometimes … it’s not entirely what we are hearing. It’s what we are feeling. And what I felt in that circle of women at the table was love.
They listened as I carefully answered questions that I put careful thought into.
Listen, this isn’t a ‘hey look at me!! I’m in a Bible study and I participated’ post.
Like - go me for being ‘obedient.’
You all know I am far from that.
But that’s what makes me who I am. I don’t want to make mistakes but these days when I do, I embrace them because it’s a chance for God to help me shed layers. For me to molt. lol. We referred to that in our questions.
One was: in what ways is waiting on the Lord active. As in not physically waiting on His return but perhaps when we pray to him. And we wait.
I said, we don’t realize that in the wait, we are shedding the things we don’t need anymore. Or the we are molting like shedding skin. Leaving the old to make way for the New.
I like it.
What I don’t like is waiting.
However, I’ve become better at it. Probably because I have many things to do in the wait.
So, I can continue life in the process while I wait for God to tell me the next move.
Listen, this does not mean we just sit.
No way! Me sit? No action? Funny.
I still act. I still try.
But, I realize how much God is part of what happens next in my life.
I love it because it removes the control from me.
So, it was a great study. I needed this.
However, there is a caveat to this.
I want others to know what I have in my life with Christ.
He just paves the way for me.
I don’t have to stress anymore!! Lies!!!
Me?! Not stress? Nah. I still do a little.
I know how he has been able to calm my heart and soul now.
I want to bring others with me into His Kingdom.
I am here for you.
Do you want to be saved? And feel the bliss that comes with a life with Christ?
It’s so much better! I promise!
Am I a model Christian? Heck no! Done told you all about my depression and drinking issues.
So no! You do not have to be perfect let alone change every particle of you!
However… you just may want to turn some ways around and replace some habits with the hand of Christ. It’s not so bad.
I know Christians get a bad rap, and more often these days. Sorry you all. You know it’s true.
💜💜💜Just say - “Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins and surrender my life. Wash me clean. I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”
💜💜💜
⚡️Bam. And wait. Molt in the wait. Shed in the wait.
But most of all. Trust.
Also and more importantly?
Just because you don’t ’Christian’ like other Christians doesn’t make you any less a believer or Christian.
I think I will own that.
I love me because all the gunk I am is who God molded me from. I can love me because Jesus loves me for me. He knew I’d be here waiting.
He loves me. And only He knows what shedding I still need.
🏃🏽♀️➡️Hey Jesus? A little off around the waist please.
If you want me to pray the Salvation prayer with you, I would LOVE IT!
Good night. My friends.
I’m sitting in my church parking lot and ready to get home to hug my girls.
Love you all
