God my Daddy!!

WOW, What an amazing God we serve.  This week we have been doing LTS (which is Life training school) and it is wonderful.  My Perspective of who God is has really changed. He is first a Father. The reason He created everything was for me to enjoy.  He wants whats best for me and He is the best for me. If He is the best for me then He wouldn't do anything to harm or hurt me, He wouldn't drop me or let me fall.
We did a lesson called  the Fathers Hug and WOW that is all I can say.  I have never been so overwhelmed with His presence before.  I never thought in a million years I would need that hug.  I have an amazing earthly father to put it lightly.  He is so fantastic and has done such an amazing job fathering me. So I thought my image of God the Father was just fine. But they opened the altars and at first I just stayed in my seat and kept praying for others who needed to feel His touch. I was sitting and praying and I felt this slight tug at my heart to go forward. I didn' t understand why but I went forward.  I stood at the front and was praying when all of a sudden I received this hug that completely overtook me.  I could feel His presence, His love, I could smell His sweet fragrance.  I was kneeling on the floor and a lady came over to pray with me. She gently ran her fingers through my hair and I started to cry. I realized that is what God the Father, My Daddy, wants to do with me. He wants to sit and talk with me, Brush my hair, help me pick out my outfits, and decide which jewelry to wear. I know this might sounds silly to some of you but it was so eye opening to me.  I love MY DADDY!!! I am overwhelmed with the amount of love He has for me. It is so amazing. I encourage you to really seek after Him.  To let Him show you how much He loves you. Let Him overwhelm you this week.

I am now getting ready for morning devotions and then class. I am so excited to learn more. I love how I am learning new stuff and seeing old stuff revealed in new ways.
I will try my best to keep you posted and updated to the best of my ability!!
Thanks so much for following this and keeping me in your prayers.
Love you guys!!
