It's been a while since I last posted. It's been a little hectic, but fun!!! I had a busy week, last week. And this week is pretty mellow. This weekend is the Woman's Retreat and I am so getting excited!!! I am totally looking forward to seeing what the Lord is going to show, reveal and teach me. I don't know if I'm ready for that, but I am totally putting my trust in Him, I know it's for the good. I so need it though!!
Well this first day of the week is FALLLLLL!!!! Yeah!!! I love fall!!! I decorated my house a tad. So, I got that done, next is to get out my winter jackets and sweaters and clean them up and wait patiently for the cold weather to come!!!!
I also started the Woman's Bible Study up again. It's been about 1 or 2 years since I last went at church. I totally miss it and am eagar to learn more about Ruth. Which by the way is the greatest love story in the Bible, besides falling in love with Jesus!!!
The one thing that really spoke to me, was the fact that the woman in Jesus' geneology. There backgrounds were not perfect, they were total sinners, total heathens. And yet, God still loved them. And it made me think of where I came from and the lifestyle I used to live. Praise the Lord that he drug me out of the muck and the myre!!! Thank you Jesus!! All glory and honor to you.
It totally confirmed it in my heart that the Lord totally and completely loves me, just as I am. I don't have to have this major degree, or go to a certain church, or wear certain clothes, or drive a certain car, or own certain purses, or live in a uppty up area, or live in a nice house. All the things of the World, the Lord does not care 'bout. But He cares about me, little ol' me. Me with my baggage and my past sins. He cares and loves ME!!! And you!!! And forgives us of all of our sins. Thank you Jesus!!
Is that awesome or what? To think that the creator of this universe, the Lord God Almighty. Loves me!! Loves you!!! I just am.....it just......it just takes my breath away. That someone could Love me sooo much that He would send His Son His only Begotton Son might I add, Jesus, to die on the cross for my sins. My sins!!
When I am worshipping at church, my mind goes back to the movie the passion and the part when he's is getting beat to death. I think Lord you did all that for me. And the movie I know doesn't do justice for what He really did. But man.....it makes me think it breaks my heart, and ask why Lord, why do we sin? With all that you went through for us and we still sin. But, I know we are not perfect and we won't be until we get to Heaven. I can't wait for that glorified body and to walk on the streets of Gold. Lord can I have the french cottage room, please??
Well, anyway, that's what I am getting from the study. I just love it!!! It's like eating a cake with tons of frosting on it. I can totally sit there and eat it and eat it. That's how I feel when I am learning about the Lord. He is awesome, he is way cool and he just totally Rocks!!!!
God Bless you and may you have a unbelievably blessed week. You know when you are facing trials this week, know that the Lord is facing them right there with you. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Amen!!!
In His Love,
Adrienne

What is the Truth?
What is the truth?
Truth is not a feeling. Truth is not an idea. The truth is found in the Bible.Sincerity and good works do not bridge the gap of sin between God and man. Only the blood of Jesus can cleanse a person (Heb. 9:22; John 14:6). Sincerity and good works are merely the reliance upon what is in the individual to merit favor with God. Sincerity is a form of pride when it is appealed to as a justification for being accepted by God: "But God, look at my heart. See how sincere I was? I deserve to be in heaven."No. If sincerity and good works were good enough to satisfy God, then He wouldn't have given us the Bible to correct our sincerely wrong ideas, and He wouldn't have sent His Son to do what our good works cannot.Truth is what God says is true.The truth is important not because it is simply true. It is important because truth is what defines who and what we believe in.Eternity is a long time to be wrong. Especially about Jesus.

How To Know God
How to Know God
Realize that you are a sinner. No matter how good a life we try to live, we still fall miserably short of being a good person. That is because we are all sinners. We all fall short of God’s desire for us to be holy. The Bible says, “No one is good—not even one” (Romans 3:10 NLT). This is because we cannot become who we are supposed to be without Jesus Christ.Recognize that Jesus Christ died on the cross for you.The Bible tells us, “But God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while were still sinners” (Romans 5:8 NLT). This is the Good News, that God loves us so much that He sent His only Son to die in our place when we least deserved it.Repent of your sin.The Bible tells us to “repent and be converted” (Acts 3:19 NKJV). The word repent means to change our direction in life. Instead of running from God, we can run toward Him.Receive Jesus Christ into your life.Becoming a Christian is not merely believing some creed or going to church on Sunday. It is having Christ Himself take residence in your life and heart. Jesus said, “Behold, I stand at the door (of your life) and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in...” (Revelation 3:20 NKJV).
If you would like to have a relationship with Christ, simply pray this prayer and mean it in your heart.
Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died for my sins. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and life. I confess you as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you for saving me. Amen.If you just prayed that prayer and meant it, Jesus Christ has now taken residence in your heart! Your decision to follow Christ means God has forgiven you and that you will spend eternity in heaven.
The Bible tells us, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9 NKJV).
Praise the Lord, if you just asked Jesus in your heart I want you to know that the Angels in Heaven are rejoicing for you and so am I. Go to http://www.calvarychapel.com/?show=Churches and click on churches to find the closest church to you and go. Go and tell them that you've just accepted the Lord Jesus Christ into your heart. They will be able to lead you to the next step.
God Bless you Brethren.
In the Mighty Name of Jesus!!! Amen!!!
Your sister in Christ Jesus!!!
