September 14-“I choose you the way you are”

September 14

After several days I was concerned because I didn’t make my commitment to Jesus’ requests.

 I knelt down to pray and give thanks for the beautiful day.  When I closed my eyes,  I saw Jesus sitting in front of me.  He showed me an olive branch and  Archangel Michael was also there holding one in his hand too.

I prayed,   “Forgive me my Lord  I didn’t get baptized yet my happiness had faded because getting baptized in a church/religion might imply to change of who I am.    It would mean having to wear skirts and never wearing the rings that my husband gave me with love.  I feel that I may have to do those changes just to follow the church’s rules. You know dear lord,  that those items haven’t prevented me from respecting you and loving you.  You are the only one I want to obey.  You know my heart and my faith.  I don’t want to please other people’s rules.  I’m sorry that I‘m sad about it.  I will get baptized, I just need time.”

Then Jesus got up from the chair and said, “Calm down,  I choose you of way you already are.
