My relationship with Jesus was more real as I realized for the first time that I was a sinner and needed Jesus. He became my Saviour and not just someone I could talk to before falling asleep each night. When I was 15, I started to get more serious in my walk. I began reading my Bible daily and started getting a lot more involved in church and serving in ministry.
I've found it challenging to take the time I need in my personal relationship with God since having a baby, but am slowly learning to take advantage of the 'quiet moments', whenever they happen.
A verse that seems to be recurring over and over in my life is Psalm 37:4. “Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.”
God first used this verse to speak to me about my future husband in 2001, (long before I met JP) and it has come up many times in the last 10 years. It was the verse of focus in my devotional book the day Mason was born as well. Through this verse I've learned that when I put God first, His desires become my desires.
