walkthesame: He is a Pursuing God (#wtsdevo God) A few days ago, I was talking to a girl who used to be in the business of prostitution. She told me something that was really touching. She mentioned how she constantly felt alone, used and helpless while being a prostitute, and how she felt loved in a surreal way when myself and some of our team of girls came across her and spoke to her, helping change her life for the better. “I didn’t want to trust you guys because it felt too good to be true. But when I saw you and some of the other ladies come over and talk to me day after day, sharing all about Jesus and love with me I felt wanted and loved for the first time. It was the first time someone genuinely had pursued me.” She is following her dream now - studying to be a chef and we constantly keep in touch. When she told me this, it just reminded me so strongly that I wouldn’t be here helping others if God hadn’t pursued me first and continues to do so. There was a time in my life where I was just shattered and broken. I felt useless and nothingness constantly, and I felt like I had no place in society. When I was feeling the most down, God pursued me in ways I could never have imagined. In His pursuit of me, He captured my heart and I captured His and I fell madly in love. I finally woke up to the amazing purpose and plans that He had for, me and all I wanted to do was go after them and live it through. His pursuit of me inspired me to stay in the Church and help others. This same pursuit just fuelled me and strengthened me to never give up no matter how hard it gets. His pursuit of me is passionate and true. This alone shapes me to be the Christian and follower of Christ I am today. Christ pursues all of us, and it is the kind of love story that you truly want to find yourself in. ____________________________________________ Devotional Series: God (#wtsdevo God) By: Elle \ Personal // Walk the Same // Color Movement -- source link
