she knew of Jesus
the first girl was deep in her religion. she wore skirts down to her ankle. she “never” sinned. she was perfect and thought she deserved everything that God gave her and more. she talked bad about people and judged others. she was in deep cyclical and abusive patterns. she was lost.
the second girl found Christ. she found Him as she was crying on her bed finally realizing just how imperfect she was. finally realizing that she needed saving. not grasping how anyone, especially God, could ever love or forgive her. Yet, He did and I believe that He would do it 1,000x again. #savedbyhisgrace #savedbygrace #testimony #sheknows #Jesus #salvation #strugglingchristian #lost and found by faith
In a world where religious practices sometimes become superficial, this narrative contrasts two experiences of spirituality. The first girl embodies a rigid adherence to rules, believing in her righteousness while secretly grappling with judgment and lostness. Conversely, the second girl's emotional awakening on her bed reveals a deep yearning for grace and understanding of Jesus's mercy. This powerful realization highlights how personal struggles can lead to profound transformations in faith. Readers can relate to themes of judgment, vulnerability, and the need for forgiveness. The journey toward salvation is depicted as a deeply personal experience, showcasing the overarching message of acceptance and love. Understanding Jesus’s goodness means embracing His long-suffering nature, reflecting on how it relates to one's life. Engaging with these themes encourages discussion about faith, struggles, and the grace of God in our lives. This article aims to resonate with those who feel lost or who are searching for meaning in their faith, offering hope and community in shared experiences.
This is beautiful. I love to think true Christianity is never a religion. It’s a relationship with Jesus❤️
