MY NEW FRIEND!!

You know they say you may know of a person but do you really know that person. Well lately I've gotten a new friend. Never really knew who he was and honestly I never tried to get to know him, all I knew was that he existed and I left it there. Well this new friend, who Ill name in a second is one busy body. He has me smiling all of the time sometimes he keeps me at bay. Things I use to say right away, I can't say anymore. People I use to hang around, I can't hang around them anymore like that. All this cursing and ratchet behavior puts me in a bad space. I crave God and I can't stop. Sometimes I will read for hours, fast and pray. Pray for longer than I've ever prayed but no longer just for me and my loved ones, for everyone the world, every church. My discernment is on point, my love for people has grown and everyone who knows me knows that well I'm a little different. I crave to be around other Christians just so I can get the goosebumps I receive when talking about God. This new friend is something else and I don't give him all of the glory because Christ told me he would send him to me but I didn't know I would feel him the way I do. Yes y'all it's the Holy Spirit. I never thought he would manifest in me the way he has and I can't resist him. I've tried because people have invited me to parties and such things and I find myself in a battle because yes I want to support them because they are my friends and family, but that isn't who I am anymore. My man's mom was explaining to me not to fight it when the spirit tells you no because that means it's something you're not suppose to do or not suppose to go to. I know most won't understand what I'm talking about and that's okay the closer you draw to Christ you shall see but for those that know, you know exactly what I'm talking about. God wants us to be Holy, he wants us to walk like Christ and though we can never be perfect it is our job to strive to be more like Christ. We are in a spiritual warfare and the enemy is running around wilding for respect trying to gather followers. It's simple you either choose God or you choose Satan, there is no in between, there is no riding the fence. The Bible says no one knows the day nor the hour that he is coming back, why even chance it. It's so much more to following Christ, it's not easy at first but it's okay to crawl before you walk, but your ultimate goal should be to receive Christ, receive the Holy Spirit, love like Christ loves, pray for others, forgive others, be on fire for Christ and spread his word. This journey that I am on, I honestly don't know where it's going, who I will meet or leave behind or what is going to happen but I know that my Lord and Savior is with me and so is the comforter, whom shall I fear, for I have on the full armor of God and I pray you grow in Christ and allow him to mold you and allow the Holy Spirit to teach you and guide you. I love the new friend I've made. God has opened doors I never expected to be walking through, trust God, turn to God and he will lead you exactly where you need to be. BE BLESSED my sisters and brothers. May Christ dwell with you until next time.
