When it comes to the Lord and Truth I will never lie to you! Never ever. I do not intend to lie to you about anything else ever either- when I say I love you, I mean it- I mean it with everything within me... nothing can change that. I love you not with what I have and with what I, Jennifer Joy Tsosie, knows... I love you with the overflow of my love for my God- I love you because He first loved me.
He pulled me out of darkness- He restored my strength- He continues to do so every day of my life. I have so many faults, and catch myself in the midst of sin- selfishness, anger, comparison... when my heart catches it, I'm ashamed- when I allow these things to capture my thoughts, I remove thankfulness... I block myself from seeing the blessings and the character the Lord is building in me. I'm not perfect- and my life certainly is not perfect. The hope and joy I offer you, I got from God. I still struggle- a lot. I'm constantly reminding myself, I AM significant, I AM secure...
I love my life and the course God has brought me on- I have not always been able to say that- and wasn't until recently that I actually say it and believe it. There is no limit to the time a person will come to this understanding. Me, it took 24 years (almost 25). But it may take someone else 1 year, or 2 days- God is in control.
Rest in confidence that one day this will all make sense to you- God is not to be completely understood but to be experienced- Live with Him, Live in Him, Live because of Him.
One of these days you will be able to shout undoubtedly and whole heartedly- I LOVE MY GOD WITH ALL MY HEART- HE RESTORES MY STRENGTH- OH MY GOODNESS I AM IN LOVE WITH HIM!
love,
jenjoy
