“ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:1-2, 14) (Read by Max McLean. Provided by The Listener's Audio Bible.)
Congradulations! I am verry happy to here that you turned back around to face God! You are right that he is forgiving and pactient. Remember not to beet your self up with remorse and regret. He takes are sins away from us as far as the East is from the West. We have to remember that if he can do that for us, we should not hold onto it, it might hinder our growth with God! I am verry happy for you and my heart sings out with joy! You just turned my day that I thought was bad upside down and made it a wonderfull day for me, THANK YOU!
