HAVE YOU FOUND YOUR AMERICAN DREAM? OR HAVE YOU FOUND OUT IT DOES NOT EXSIST.



When we were small children and full of ideals of what we wanted to become when we grew up, our job description might have included flying with our capes to help those in trouble, scaling a building with just our Spiderman abilities, being a princess with nothing to do all day but drink fake tea with our dolls, now this was cute to those adults around us, at first, as we got older our parents wanted to teach us about this world and the way it operates, they wanted to steer us into a more realistic and obtainable career. They wanted us to know if you follow all the rules set in place you can expect things to go well for you. They wanted to teach us how to be in a class of certain people, upper class, middle class, and of course the dreaded lower class.

As we grow up, start school, our capes, Spiderman abilities, being a princess changed into figuring out a career path that would allow us to live and have what is called the good life, or the American dream, we wanted to be in control of our future and provide for ourselves so we never had to struggle with provision. Now when you are a teen, then young adult, its easy to live in the here and now, you are enjoying life and thinking my life is right on course, I will work a job I love, get married , buy the beautiful home, obtain the other toys and trinkets that come along with working, have the perfect children with the excellent grades and live happily ever after.

THEN IT HAPPENS YOU FINALLY FIND OUT THAT, God in His Grace and Mercy has planted a void in us, that requires to be filled, after years of trying everything we were told would satisfy us, money, education, status, grown up toys, drugs, drinks, criticizing people, putting them down, attacking other races of people, people in lower income brackets, people from different countries, we do this to remind ourselves we have worked hard to belong to the good class of people, as long as we feel we are better that someone else we are happy.
                                                                                                                                          
The Love God has for us is shown in so many ways but the void He puts in us that only He can fill, is another example of His love, God will not allow ANYTHING to finally satisfy us but Himself, so no matter what you have obtained in life and after the thrill of that new thing is over, the longing is still there. so we will search and search until we find something or God sends someone who can tell us what to do to fill the empty places in us.

Well today I get to be the woman God is using to tell you whats missing, We must be born again, We must ask God to forgive us and save us through Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, God said in Romans 10:9 If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him (Jesus) from the dead, you will be saved.

So in your own words talk to God let Him know you confess that Jesus is Lord and that God raised Jesus from the dead, and you want to give Jesus your life, then and only then will you find what you have been looking for your whole life, and God longs to reveal Himself to us and fill the void, after praying which is just talking to God, ask Him to send people into your life to help you become all He would have you to be. Welcome into the Kingdom of God.       I love you Daddy.
