You found God, now what's next?

You found God, now what's next?
This is your life now and the biggest part of failure is not from God, but from your upbringing and lack of knowledge of yourself. You have to now fix yourself. You have to rid yourself of all emotions and habits that you have carried all your life. You have to be aware of these and other parts of your life you don’t even think about that you do everyday as habit. Take baby steps if you must. Don’t overwork your life and fall down. Listen to God, seek, pray and thank him everyday. Each step you take and each obstacle you overcome gets you closer to God and the world in which we all live in will become our Heaven as meant to be with God being our Father.
People around you can be your blessing and your failures. Remember, seek God for all advice. He is there as your Father and will not steer you from the truth and correct path. You have to listen before you make decisions. You have to know the people you are with and gain knowledge everyday of right from wrong and ask yourself “is this of God or not”? All things created are from God, but not all things created are meant for you, God created the Garden of Eden and placed a Tree of Knowledge in this garden and strictly told Adam and Eve not to eat from that tree for they will surely die. So understand that not all things created are for your consumption. Seek knowledge and wisdom everyday in your life. Knowledge is the ability to know right from wrong and Wisdom the ability to know the truth. Rid your bad habits and emotions inside you as you become aware of the truth and the rights and wrongs of you and others around you. God is your Father, so seek, pray and thank him everyday. If you step backwards from God because the strain of life inside you is strong and those habits you cannot break than you have lost faith in God. Failure is not of God but only to your self. Sin is your fight conquering Death or having Life. You live as if Heaven is in you or Hell is your place of worship on this earth. Taking steps backwards because Hell has a stronger pull separates you from what God wants you to do. You’re taking bites from the apple and God is offering so much more if you would listen and overcome your sinful habits. These habits as I have mentioned before are not all your fault and some you’re not aware of at all. These habits however become awakened in your life with God, testing your faith. We all are tested just as Eve was tempted by the Devil. The Devil in our lives is these habits and emotions with hell as the price tag. If you keep God in your heart and remembering the reason you accepted God in your life, than these devil ways will vanish and you will see the right from wrong in your ways. Don’t continue to give in to your old ways and habits, ask God for guidance. Failure is not of God but in you without God. You’re a child of God at any age and God has chosen a path for all of us. Stay strong on that path and Heaven will be your end. Meet with good people who ask nothing of you but your friendship and wisdom. Stay away from the Hell of this world that will cause you to step back and prolong your way to Heaven. If you stumble along the way, if may be from the lack of knowledge and wisdom you just now possess from that stumble. Learn and teach others when needed along your way. Remember to teach yourself before you teach others. You’re a child taking first steps and you must break your long term habits and emotions that became your hell, before you properly lead others to the path your on. Take baby steps and let others take baby steps with you. Don’t profess to know it all when you find God, nor be any better than the person you come in contact with. Be humble and caring and others will know how different you are and wonder why? God is in your life leading you to a heaven, a place we can only dream about how wonderful it will be. Heaven has entered your heart and you will live with this heaven on earth as you travel a path to overcome Hell’s obstacles. Don’t bite from the fruit that serves no purpose not for God. Do everything for the Glory of God. Ask your self “Is this of God?” Know that God will pick you up if you do fall or have been tempted but understand that Sin is to know right from wrong and doing the wrong. Don’t tempt God in doing wrong knowing he will forgive you and make you better again. You are living not just for yourself but for the lives of others. God wants all his children to be saved. If you cause even a small child to fall off the path to heaven, you have committed an unforgivable sin the bible states. When you have God in your life, your path is directed and therefore sin no more. Break the chains holding you, crucify your sinful natures and be reborn in the name of Christ, God thy Father. Change now, you found God. Love more, listen more, and laugh more. Give more of yourself to others. Put a plan together that makes sense in your life to help you and those around you, especially your loved ones close to you. Your help mate is as precious to you as God in your heart. Show it and believe it. God has entered your heart and take the baby steps to show it. Don’t get overwhelmed to cause others to think your Looney, even though you know God has excited you so. Take it easy and let time with God show others who you have become. Maybe you don’t want to tell anyone just yet that you have found God in your life, so that they aren’t looking at you constantly judging you to see if you have changed. Don’t worry about others; Jesus was judged all his life, so nothing new. Ask God each morning for your daily bread and be humble. Teach when asked for advice. Give assistance if needed. Smile and feel great, because you found God in your life and the light shining in your heart and in your face will shine on others naturally. You don’t have to push God on anyone. Jesus didn’t force you to follow him. He spoke of truth and the way to a righteous life with God his Father. Just the words from his mouth and the nature of his character, people listened and followed. You want to be like Jesus and carry God the Father in your heart and mind with all you do.
Fix the things around you that have made your life incomplete. Use the wisdom God gives you to make a change for a better you and a better life ahead. If Money, Love, Health is the problem, let God be your guide to your next decisions. Take care of yourself and your home and seek God the Father at all times. Make God the habit in your life and rid all the habits of hell. Just know this, when you find God and you make him second to your life, you will miss the path you should be walking on and God will never leave you, but you will stray from him. These walks along the wrong path are your habits and emotions and fears you have kept all your life before finding God. By knowing Jesus had sacrificed his life for us, we must do the same. We must sacrifice our ways to God, start living pure sinless lives and God is here as our Father to guide us. Others will pull you down only because they don’t know God as you do. Others will be jealous because you found a new life, a new you has been reborn. This jealousy of others will try to break you and prove you are not different, but just the same sinful person everybody else is without God in their lives. Look to God, and fear only him that without him you will surely die a sinful death. With God in your life, you are saved for the next life he has set aside for you and it starts now in this life we are living in now. Walk, talk and live with heaven in your heart and with God you can never fail. Break those habits you were given since childhood. Rid the pain and suffering you have experienced all your life and accept it as a measure of growth that brought you closer to God. Through suffering we come closer to God. Those who have suffered most understand the love of God even more than those who seek God by curiosity. Gods love pours out to everyone, but the ones with pain and suffering, the meek and weary, the hungry and poor inherit this earthly heaven when God has touched their lives. You must be meek and not boastful. Don’t push your belief on others as a means to correct the sin you witness from them. Let God guide your path when you pray to him just as you have come to him yourself. Let your wisdom direct you through God to help others. Those wanting help will come to you and those you come in contact with will see the good in you and wonder why. Let God shine from you so that Halo above your head can be seen by others and they will know you are a good person. If you have much habits and emotions to conquer, use God and walk softly with God in your life. Let the changes come together inside you and make each day an even better day. Seek the master of this world and be like Jesus Christ walking among the earth with pureness in heart and God the master as your Father. Be humble and keep your tongue to the wisdom of God giving to others the truth of this world in baby steps. Others need to crawl before they can walk as you must do when you find God for the first time. Let God direct your path through constant prayer to him and stay on that path daily. Think of God in every way, by lights blinking off and on in the streets, by walking up to a penny on the ground, by a sudden change of sight or event that brings you a memory of goodness. Pray to God, pick up that penny from Heaven and say a prayer of thanks. God is with you at all times and you just keep thinking of him every moment you can. He will tap on your shoulders many times just to keep you going in the right direction, so you don’t stray. Many times this is your mind asking yourself if what you’re doing or about to do is right in God’s eyes. Follow your heart and pray and seek the answers in your life. Remember, baby steps when you had such a painful life and God will help you grow as a child back into the life he wants you to have now and in your future.
