I don't blame you for being excitedI got the same message quite a few years ago. Don't be discouraged if you think everyting is going wrong. God does test us to see if we can hold up . I am discouraged now because I want to post "Commissioned to write on the web. I just turned 80 years old. I forget how to do things once in awhile. Many are surprised I can even use a computer. They say most people over 50 can't.
The only thing I can think of to do is just type it as I go. Takes longer but I did it before. So here goes. I'm not a fast typist.
Commissioned to write on the web.
I tried to do a lot of things to take up my time but it was boring. God tool advantage of the situation.
I never sat still long enough to listen for His voice. I went into a depression filled with guilt and remorse for the stupid, dangerous and wordly things I had done. I pushed God out of y life. I realized it was God chastising me before He could get me to admit where I had gone wrong. He could then restore me to when I first got saved.
Gradually I began to go to the front room where people gathered. One day there was only one woman in the room. I told her about the "Mini-Sermons" I used to write in 1987 & "88. Even though I was not following His path at all times, He let me write the sermons and passed out 100 copies a week at the counter where I had worked as a waitress. I can see now they were meant for me if no one else. I knew God was in it for no one tried to stop me. It was a very happy time for I knew God I was in God's perfect will.
I believe I will stop right now. It is a 3 page story. I will give you a break to absorb this and how God works with each one of us. He might do with you differently than He did with me. I know there is a scripure "I know the plans I have for you" (will find it later) We can try but I don't believe we can escape HIm.
God bless you and keep believing no matter how hard it may get.
