Five Minute Fridays – Belong

It’s Friday night – the worst of the storm has passed I think; baby is in bed (we are babysitting); time to take 5 minutes to write on the word “belong”.
I know the minute I knew I belonged to Jesus – I can tell you the spot too. After wrestling with Jesus for about a year – I had read books, prayed, attended Bible studies, read the Bible and journalled – a friend suggested I just ask Jesus to reveal Himself. So I did. And in that moment I knew I belonged to Him. He came in a mighty way – with a power I can’t explain and He captivated me for all time.
I know I belong to Jesus. (tweet this)
There will never be any doubt in my mind after that moment in time.
That doesn’t mean I don’t have lots to learn. I do. The Holy Spirit is teaching me each day as I read, study and pray. But it does mean that I have let go of control of my life. My worries are gone because I know that God cares for me.
Do you belong? Can you tell me your story?
Linking in with Lisa-Jo Baker and Five Minute Fridays.
1. Write for 5 minutes flat for pure unedited love of the written word.
2. Link back here (to Lisa Jo) and invite others to join in {you can grab the button code in my blog footer}
3. Go leave some comment props for the five minute artist who linked up before you {and if you love us, consider turning off word verification for the day to make it easier for folks to say howdy}
It’s a great way to catch your breath at the end of a long week.
