If I am honest I could spend eternity just staring up at that light full of everything I thought I didn’t deserve, and I would not find it unbearable, I would love every second of it.
I was a beggar on the street once. I would sit in an alley way that had few visitors and rarely would they stop or pay me any attention. I was cold, hungry, and hopeless. I was waiting for death to come and rescue me from my afflictions.
I still remember it as if it was actually happening at this very moment. I heard the tread of water and the leaves rustling happily. I looked up and saw pure light with a hand outstretched for me. I was immediately overwhelmed with feelings of love, and hope was restored in my soul. I reached out and grabbed the hand and it pulled me up. Then I saw that it was a man. A beautiful, kind, and lovely man.
He brought me home and washed the dirt off of me all the way to my bones. Then he healed my wounds and all pain and hurt left me. I had never felt that free before. I had never felt that loved before. This was a man who shined bright like the sun and I didn’t go blind when looking at him. I will forever look towards him, for he is my hope forever.
If you’ve ever felt lost and without purpose let me tell you you are not the only one.
God has been showing me dreams like this a lot recently. Showing how much he loves me. He is the constant in my life that I can always rest assured on.
I see so many people in the world like the old me. Sitting without hope awaiting death and it saddens me.
I know where my purpose is and more importantly I know who it is. I was lost and guess what, I was found, and so can you. Don’t sit on the curb excepting whatever anyone will put in your cup. God promises to fill your cup to overflowing just trust him. God keeps his promises and I am learning that more and more. If you want to be found come to God! If you want purpose look up, it’s God. God is your purpose, he’s mine too. Isn’t that so cool we have the same purpose. We have a lot in common, let’s be friends!
