JESUS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT

Well, I gotta admit something just a wee bit embarrassing and I don't come off looking very bright, lol.  I fell head over heels in love with Jesus Christ at around the age of 6 and while many may say I couldn't have really been saved that young, I might have to fight ya on that, lol.  I haven't ever had any serious doubts and when the teachers tried to tell me I came from a monkey or some cosmic space dust, I laughed it off.  I couldn't take it s real as it was so foreign.  I'd actually had personal encounters with Him so how could they tell me God isn't real and expect me to believe that nonsense.  I had no special training and the Bible to me was a book I could just trust.  I didn't have to understand it all but I just knew it was the truth.

Now I had a big problem...I wanted 2 things.  One was to honestly say I'd read the entire Bible BUT, how could I do that without reading the Old Testament too?  Hmmm, I had a problem.  I could not lie about this.  I could like about other stuff but not that.  I even prayed for a solution.  Sometimes the answer is NO, lol.  I finally read it as fast as I could, especially all the "begots."  I got so frustrated and said "I cannot do this, Jesus.  I cannot and I'm sorry BUT I miss you way too much.  You're not in the Old Testament."  GO AHEAD AND LAUGH WITH ME.  i also thought "Benghazi" was a man, not a city.  Yep, told you I'm a little bit out of the loop.  Now, to be fair to me, I was only 13 at the time.  But, that doesn't explain the same problem I had 4 years ago.  I finally surrendered my life to Him so I was a baby.  Imagine my delight to discover that not only is the love of my life IN the OT, it's actually ALL ABOUT HIM.  

I want to offer some advice for those like me, new to the Word of God or strong but still have problems understanding His Word, on Judgment Day, I highly doubt God will ask us what does, say, Daniel 4:8 mean.  We are to seek, we will be given.  It's  lifelong journey that is so awesome it almost feels carnal.  Please let God tell you what He is saying, not man.  You will grow and soar on eagle's wings.  Be a voice, not a whisper!  Please laugh as it's a wonderful gift of God.  

GOD BLESS AND SHARE THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION IN FIRST CORINTHIANS 15:1-11
