Seven years ago I started reading a book by Tony Evans Called Totally Saved. For what ever reason I did not finish this book only God knows. I was asking myself while I was getting ready for vacation hmm, what book to take? I pull the tote filled with books from under the bed out falls Totally Saved, Okay? really God? Now after seven long years of holding on to this book? Really? You want me to read it now? Was I ready to read this book? Hmm only time would tell. Once again, I started to read thinking am I truly Saved? My answer is Yes. I knew that I accepted his gift with open arms, after all nobody else in my life that I have a relationship with would send their only son to Die for me on the cross. It just might give me a better understanding of my life. Being Totally Saved is a True gift. While I love to be creative, I don't see myself as a Teacher NO WAY NOT ME GOD!! Why are you sending these people to me? Why are they asking me to start teaching them things during Central Crafters? Okay Run, Hurry up run away, Ha ha now you are really showing me your Humor God. Really you have have to send the Pastor's Wife also the Head honcho for Children's Ministry after me to Make your point clear? me help? with Crafts For Kids Camp! Am I ready for this? Ready or Not Can I tell you that Kids Camp Pandamania Changed my life once again. I was filled with fear doubt also oh no what if I'm a failure? Am I ready to get in front of these Kids of God's, to share with them what a gift his salvation really is. That it's the only gift I know of that no one can physically see it or take it away! I was to busy trying to change myself instead of letting God Change me into the person he has desined me to be. I failed to see that it did not matter if I was ready or not God was ready. He was the one that gave me strength, also when I messed up one night's bible point he gave me the Humor to start over, the kids thaought that was great!!
1 John 4:4
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
Only Jesus can save us so why do we waste so much time trying to change ourselves? Ready or not? Today I can say I'm ready.
