From Crimson To Snow - Beginnings

Beginnings – From Crimson to Snow

Remove my sin, and I will be clean;
wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Psalm 51:7

I remember having to write a story in elementary school for English class and I wrote a mystery and entitled it “The Key”.  Mrs. Showalter, the pretty teacher with the frosted lipstick, said it was very good. I remember feeling very happy and wanting to write more.

I’ve kept journals of thoughts and prayers during different periods in my life and reading through them today can make me laugh one minute and cry the next. Reading what I wrote and remembering what was so important to me then and how God really has been working in my life touches my heart. There are times I look back and wish I could change what I did or didn’t do. Even in the Crimson Times when I was so depressed and feeling unworthy of love and when family and friends abandoned me, Jesus Christ never abandoned me. Not once.

You might think that God doesn’t really care about you . You might think that you need to “clean up your act” first- before God would even think of revealing himself to you or even care about you enough to answer your prayers. You might think you are too far gone. I’m here to tell you that it’s not too late, even if you have wandered away. As long as you are still breathing it is not too late. God wants to have a relationship with you. Don’t listen to any voice that says otherwise. He brought you to this place and this time for a reason.

I think we all kind of sense that the time is at hand.  Reading through my thoughts over thirty years ago causes me to see now how close God really was- and still is. Let me assure you that God is not hiding, like my school age mystery story, but He is seeking. His Word reveals that when you weren’t looking (or even caring about) Him, He was (and still is) seeking YOU out. (Romans 5:8)

 I started this blog because I strongly felt the need to let you know that the God of the Universe is reaching out to YOU today.  God seeks a relationship with you through the His Son, Jesus Christ. A lifelong “show you His purpose” kind of relationship.  Will you open your heart to the Lord who gave Everything so that you and I could be with him in Eternity? If not, what’s stopping you?

“Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the Lord.
“Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.” (Isaiah 1:18)

      Thanks again. I truly appreciate it.
      From Crimson To Snow

  83. I am almost speechless over what I read! It’s very inspiring!
    When I lost my Janey, almost 8yrs
    ago, actually I was the last one to see her when she was placed in Hospice Care and I tried to tell her that”We” could prove that the doctors were wrong and beat this!
    She had to convince me that there would be no going back! That there was nothing that could be done! I started getting a little mad at her (do you believe it?) I told that she was like the others, I treated them so good and respectful and in the end my kindness was viewed as weakness and they had to “find a real man!! And here I was accusing my Janey of the same thing! Common sense took over!!
    But, I had a very hard time letting her go! After my ex–wife cheated on me I didn’t date until I met my Janey, a whole decade later! My heart was crushed and my Janey restored it and now she was being stolen from me and there wasn’t a
    Damn thing that I could do about it. Before I had to leave her for the last time I made a serious attempt to sing our fav song to her! Couldn’t do it I got thru the first three lines and could not go any further, I couldn’t stop crying!
    If you ever get a chance check it out. It’s called “In Love With You”
    by Engelbert. My fav singer of all time. She loved my romantic music. I appreciate you listening to me. I apologize for getting off the main subject! I couldn’t help it!
    Ty.

    1. Thank you for the kind words. They are very much appreciated! I pray you may see the wonderful things God has in your future. He is Faithful Lamont!
