What is a "Jesus Freak Life"?

I have been compelled for some time to share some of the aspects of my daily life online. This will specifically pertain to my daily walk with The Lord Jesus, my trials, His victories, and the love of God in my life.

A "Jesus Freak Life" is one where Jesus is the center of life. Jesus is the reason that you exist. Jesus is your Provider. Jesus is your Healer. Jesus is your Peace, your Banner, and your Strong Tower! You live to glorify Christ, and NOT yourself. You place others before you; you are selfless, and not selfish. You share The Gospel of Jesus Christ with anyone who will listen. You pray for your family, friends, and co-workers.

A "Jesus Freak Life" is also one where you stumble. You forget to pray, you lose your temper, words come out from your lips that you regret later. You forget to read your Bible, you get sucked into the things of this world, and you take 2 steps back instead of forward. It's about also being HUMAN, and having the grace to admit that we can only strive to be like Jesus. Until you get to heaven, you won't reach that point. It's also about forgiveness, which flows BOTH WAYS! That forgiveness never runs out, because it's backed by the forgiveness that Jesus extended to us when He died on the cross for our sins!

I hope that anyone who comes across this blog will be encouraged, or at the least-feel compelled to pray for me.

Jesus Loves You!
