That’s me! Sinner, Saved. Conceived in Sin yet formed by the hands of God Most High in the secret place. Child of God, Lamb, Gone Astray, Prodigal Son come Home! A grain of wheat that fell to the ground and died in order to produce abundant life.
Blessed from the beginning with righteous parents, servants of God, taught the Word of God from infancy on… didn’t understand! Raised in the Church, read the Word of God, baptized young but I did not know or understand who was, and is God.
In retrospect, my entire young adult life was laced with selfishness, sin, and immorality. In retrospect, I was blind, deaf, dumb, poor, and naked even though back then I thought I was righteous and without sin!
I took my Spiritual Inheritence and left my Father’s home to go dwell in the city living a life of liscentiousness, sin, prostitution, and gross immorality…
I left the loving embrace of the Father for the love of myself and the world. I went from peace, comfort, and security and traded it for restlessness, pain, trouble, and distress of heart, soul, and mind…
Starving, dying, walking down the broad path of destruction, I remembered my Father Above and began the walk of repentance back to His Dwelling Place.
Instead of receiving me back as a slave, He embraced me as a Son and clothed me with His robe, put a signet ring on my finger, put sandals of peace on my feet, and slaughted His fattened calf for the Salvation of my soul.
I was dead but by His Word, I am now alive and will live Forever! God is good all the time; all the time God is good.
