Hi Everyone!
I'm a born-again, saved mom and wife from pennsylvania. I grew up in a family that went to church most Sundays, but until about 12 or so years ago, I was a thru and thru atheist.
Then Jesus touched my heart and the scales fell away from my eyes and I saw The Truth!
Somewhere along the way though, I've lost some of that truth inside of me. I will never, ever stop knowing that Jesus died for me, but the fire in my heart that I once felt for him has become but a flicker.
Surely God can do anything (can I hear an "amen"? AMEN!), so I am praying that he will draw me back to that place I once was. I know I can't do it myself, I just don't have it in me!
I have a huge stumbling block in my life right now (anger and unforgiveness), and I believe it's separating me from God in my heart and in my mind. I've prayed about it, but I have a stubborness in my heart that doesn't want to let it go.....probably because the anger I have is from something occuring that is ongoing, not something that is in the past and is done with. Prayers from others are appreciated!!
I look forward to perusing this site and getting to know everyone. :smile_anim:
