1st Day

Hey Guys,

So this is my first blog ever! I wanted to blog about the chapters I am currently reading in the Bible. I am a christian and I go to Compass Bible Church. Today I read a chapter from Jonah 2. It really was so inspiring! I loved this verse:

7 When my life was fainting away,I remembered the Lord,and my prayer came to you,into your holy temple.

Jonah was in a really hard time so he went to the Lord for help. Of course HE is always with us and he saved Jonah. If it weren't for the Lord Jonah would have been dead. I have gone through a similar situation. The Lord saved me when I was going through a hard time. After my grandfather died, I was devastated. When he died, I wanted to die. I went through one of the steps of dealing with loss; Bargaining. I asked & told God that I would do anything to get my grandfather back. I told God that I would be a better student, a better sister, a better daughter, a better friend. . . . etc. When I realized what I was doing, I realized nothing would work. That is when the Lord found me. I was in his word and I finally realized that my grandfather was in a better place. So as Jonah said "When my life was fainting away" I remember when I thought I lost it. Then I remembered the Lord and prayed everyday for him to help me. Of course, he answered my prayers and that is just one story that I have to share with those who are non-believers. HE saved me. HE is the reason I am here today! PRAISE THE LORD!
