Living for the Lord

About two years ago, I came to a point in my life where I just did not know what I was living for. I was unhappy, stressed out and full of worry. My brother began to spiral out of control and getting into trouble. He had people wanting to kill him and he was fighting all the time. Everyday was a waiting game; I always expected something to happen. I would be so scared and literally sick to my stomach with worry. I had no one I could turn to or tell my problems to. One day, I was watching a preacher on television and this preacher looked directly into the camera and asked, " How are you living?" It was within that moment that I looked at my life and cried. I cried out to God and asked for His help. I did not want to be depressed, live in fear or be worried anymore. From that moment on, I decided I would give my life back to Christ. I always believed in God but not like I do now. I believe and trust in Him for everything in my life. I no longer live in fear or worry because I have Christ and He fights my battles for me. Each day, I plea the blood over my brother’s life and leave him in God's hands. It is now that I know God has my back and He will never leave or forsake me. I love God. I want to obey and live for Him each and everyday. He holds my today and my tomorrow. When people see me, I want them to see His light shining. I want to live and serve Him in everything that I do and give Him all the glory and the praise.
