Jeremiah 29:11

At some point you have to try and shake of the past and look towards the future. This I know is not easy when everything seems to be against you. But maybe we have to look at what been has maybe made you stronger.
We don't need to look very far in the bible to find story's of amazing trust in God by people, And today is no different.
Ive been Talking to a guy Ive known for years who has had a ruff old time throughout life with one thing or another. I met him a few years ago in the supermarket and he told me that life was good and he had become a christian.

Now I'm hoping at some point to do an interview with him on video to share his story and to upload here. I truly believe God wants to use him  in a positive way and things he tells me should be shared with many.

OK he will be first to admit that he is far from perfect and is still struggling with things but he has such a great attitude and character I have told him his story should be shared.
It says in Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future"
What it mean? Well to me when I hear or read that statement it give me a lift as I know his plans are awesome and beyond anything I can imagine. It builds my hope and faith.
We will never know those plans he has for us unless we are willing to open up to him and ask him to be in your life. Then we have to learn to trust and follow him.
Seems many people that read this blog of mine seem to be sitting on the fence wondering of believing in God or wanting to believe in him. It not hard to ask him to come into your life as he is waiting just outside for you to let him in.
how do we open that door?...... try praying, if you find that hard read and pray the believers prayer that I mentioned on Unanswered Questions.

Remember... When you seek him wholeheartedly you will find him.
