A Gift Of Hope

Having been diagnosed with Large B Lymphoma I had a challenge ahead of me. Being a born again Christian, I knew exactly what I had to do. Though I had back slidden somewhat I knew my gift of salvation was near through my repentance. I now came to realize that my gift of life was a short and fragile gift in which we all take for granted. So through repentance I got right with my creator and gave him charge over my life for a recovery from Cancer.

Its not always easy to submit to a higher power but whatever you call it make no mistake there is a power so much higher and bigger than you could even possibly imagine. And for those who are so closed minded to reject the possibility of a spiritual source so great is absolutely sad and ridiculous. My prayers go out to those people.

What I have come to find out in my experience is that the ‘God Force’ is not only real but so transparent that unless you are connected to this mind blowing source you have no idea what you are missing out on.

The Bible, often referred to as a resource for the preparation for afterlife. I not only believe this to be true but go further in my belief that it is an introduction and a testimony to who God really is.

Having a three part identity in Father, Son, Holy Spirit we are not only introduced we are covered by the blood of our creators.

It blows me away when on a daily basis how tragedy can take place and even the non believers point to God, as the culprit. Not only do they not understand the God creator and his persona, they do not understand the unification of humanity.

The principle of being one with Christ would mean that as a unit meaning all humanity we all take part in the daily choices and activities we have daily making us responsible for the outcome of our choices. So being a connected society we all feel the blunt outcomes of the things we do and contribute to.

My point is this if we are connected as one in Christ we all are connected to Christ therefore our actions speak volumes to whether we are his sheep or the Goats of the evil Father in Satan.

The problem is that people do not take the spiritual aspect of the world seriously. The afterlife is real very real in fact and unless you give the respect to the concept then you can never fully understand how life and death work.

My testimony is a simple one I was like everyone else in the world I woke up every day went to work had a family, a social life, and took life for granted that is until I woke up facing death. Until you are dealt this card you can not possibly imagine what goes through a persons mind! I just recall going back to what I was taught in my faith. I prayed, I repented, and I gave my battle to the Lord and against the odds I can out wiser, grateful and above it all I was cured under the grace, and mercy of the Lord. And in this journey the presence of the Lord was upon me. I know this because of the dream I had that made the song ‘We Are Hope” possible to be penned by me and sung and recorded by the daughter of the Icon Ray Charles, Sheila Raye Charles. The song went on to receive Song Of The Year, as my dream had indicated. It went on to be used for foundations that would inspire music education for Grassroots Music Foundation, and Muzart world Foundation and it has reached listeners across the globe with a message of hope through the author and finisher of my faith Christ Jesus.

The Bible teaches that through Christ we can be saved. It further teaches how to become more like Christ, how to walk in the spirit and use the fruits of the spirit in our daily activities. The word goes on to explain the promises of Christ, and how his word can never comeback void. Understanding the basics of the Bible its message and purpose is yet only another indication God is real alive and well. His love reigns forever more.

My challenge for you today is a simple one and that is just pick up the Bible and experience the spirit within it and allow the whispers of truth prevail in your life. See what the spirit of God has to say to you.

In Genesis the Bible says, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Meaning God is spirit. When we die we become spirit So doesn’t it only make since that God would prepare us for the spirit world that we will spend eternity in?

My quest is to only share wisdom and truth and to do so by the proof that lies in my near death experience.

The rest is up to you. God is a loving God, who allows you to choose your destiny. He is a gentleman, one who has mercy and grace. And so my prayer is for you to consider and know he will meet you just where you are. And he will keep his promises if only you choose to believe!
