I rely on God for everything that I can think of. I believe that god “hires” People in life on earth to deliver, Help, and guide the ones that may not be able to hear his voice as he would like them to. I believe that these people are guardian angels. Some people, I believe, often mistake the voice of God with their conscience telling them right from wrong or they think that they are going crazy, and beginning to hear voices. But in my life it has taken me a concentrated dosage of Faith to be able to recognize and acknowledge the voice of God. My journey in knowing and trusting the lord has been a bumpy ride and its all been on my part not being obedient and listening when I should have. Sometimes in life I should have stopped and thought about things before I did them. And failing to realize that God was talking to me back then I could have avoided a lot of unpleasant situations then. A lot of living I have done, a lot of learning I have done, I lot of growing I have done and a lot of knowing have I done still does not equate to the amount that I will have to do. But on my way to being the person of sound mind and heart that I know I am, I will benefit tremendously if I shut my eyes , close my mouth and open my ears to humble and comforting voice of God that my life with take a sharp right turn. I know that trouble still lies ahead with any Christian trouble will always lie ahead but on my way to reward I know that the lord will send guardian angels to light the way to a healthier life for me.
