Today as I was reading in Acts I read what Paul said to the Jews in Antioch. In Acts 13:22, he quotes what God himself said about David. A few weeks ago when I was reading about David in the old testament I remember reading God say that David was a man after his heart. This is meaningful to me for several reasons. 1st God said it. 2nd David was imperfect as we know. Despite all the mistakes that David made and all his imperfections, God still said he was a man after His own heart. If God said this about David, he could very well say this about us too. The fact that God said this about David gives us a glimpse into the character of God and his grace and mercy. For those people, like myself, that tend to believe you must be perfect for God to like you, love you, bless you, say good things about you, etc, this proves us wrong.

What I write AboutMy posts are all about the Christian walk in some way or another. I do my best to make what I post worth reading, thus there are many more things that I write about but do not post. Some of my posts are my reflections on scripture or a quote, other posts are simply my testimony, and others still are letters of encouragement. I hope that you will be encouraged or challenged in your walk with Christ as a result. God Bless you, my friend.
