In November 2015, my job was taken from me because I chose not to participate in their EAP (Employee Assistance Program). They were compelling me to this program because I was refusing to participate in certain "team building" exercises that I thought were intrusive and deceptive in their motives. Since I chose to not participate, they chose to terminate my employment. I have not worked for pay since then except small jobs for some family members. I did not draw unemployment benefits, on purpose.
InsteadI started searching for truth. I read books seeking to find out what is true. I searched the internet. I found Q stuff while researching about Seth Rich.
I started reading Q posts and researching on my own. I wrote down stuff to develop my core beliefs and this became my list of 21 things. I read a book, "Evidence That Demands A Verdict" to try to understand if the Bible is true. I started reading the Bible again daily to see if it was true. I started talking to God, just asking Him questions. Then I started praying, as I learned more about what I was reading.
Then God started revealing Himself to me. I wrote down what He shared about His attributes, about what I learned from His Word, about what I saw of His work in the world today. I wrote it all down. I have even shared some here on GAW.
Then I started to see God answering my prayers. I noticed He answered my prayer from 2015 in an expansive way. My prayer was regarding harassment. His answer came in my separation from my employer--and expanded from that into elimination of human trafficking, or at least, the work toward that. My prayer was limited, but God's response is not.
When I realized this, I wrote it down and Praised God. I find myself thanking God with every revelation and there are tons of them now.
There is much I wish to share. Over time I may. For now, I had better leave it with this...
From my list of 21 Things:
- God Wins.
And
- First Go To God.
Thank you for this stellar testimony. Daniel 12:3 (NASB95) Those who have insight will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever.
Phil. 2:14 - 15 Do all things without grumbling or disputing;
so that you will prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights (or luminaries, stars) in the world,
Evidence That Demands A Verdict is a long book, kudos to you for having the diligence to read the warehouse load of historical information that is there. BTW, Like your username, and your first and twenty-first on the list. (21 is not always easy to do, is it? However, there are great rewards for doing it)
I learned how to pronounce "historicity" while reading Evidence.
First Go to God isn't limited to just the morning. Finding that out daily+.
