Hi y'all,
My husband and I just began our walk with Christ about a year ago. We began at a baptist church and we felt like there was so much more to learn about God. I met a friend who shopped at my store (vitamin) and realized he was a minister. At that time I had no clue about the apostolic church and he didn't even mention it. He invited us to his weekly bible study. We attended his bible study every week because we loved it! And later he invited us to his church. We have been attending the apostolic church for a while now and we are so happy in it. We we're baptized at the baptist church but not in the name of Jesus. I like to do all things in the name of Jesus so this had to be done in the name of Jesus too!! I received the Holy Ghost and even spoke in tongues which I thought was not possible even though I read it and had seen it. It was the most amazing experience ever! My husband has yet to receive it but we are still praying! Any who, our pastor and minister always advice us to be led by the spirit in all things. I was surprised because No one told me not to cut my hair or not do wear make up nor to dress in skirts. But one day I personally was led to do some of these things. I really can't explain how Jesus just moved my heart in a certain direction! My church places an emphasis on how our hearts are and what is really in them and to be lead by the spirit and not by man. Which made so much sense to me! We are so lucky to have such honest leaders in our church. There are still some women who wear pants and I've never heard him say anything to them. God will do the work! Not wearing make up was easy for me! I think I am a beautiful creation made by God! Plus I get to sleep a bit more in the mornings! Lately, though I have been struggling because I have been feeling lonely. Not in the aspect most think. I know God is with me and he has given me to a wonderful husband and has placed us in a amazing church. But I just wish I had a best friend who I could share my faith with and go shopping and hang out with. I am very close to my ministers wife but she's a lot older than me. Lol. Our church is very small and we are the youngest ones there besides the kids.
So, hello to my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus! We must all stick together no matter what!! I am so blessed to be a new creature!!! Have a blessed Sunday!!!
