Welcome to Unintentionally Mislead

God is the way, the truth and the life. As a child I heard this phase many times but never understood it's true meaning. Who is God I would often ask my grandmother.and as best as she could, she explained to me that God is love and that he loved us so much that he gave his son Jesus Christ to die for our sins. 'What a wonderful God she would often say,' preaching the gospel to anyone who would listen.

In my grandmother's presence I felt as though nothing could harm our family 'her faith in God was unshakable, she trusted in God for all of her daily needs. oftentimes telling us to just trust in God and don't worry about tomorrow. I wanted to know and love God the way that my grandmother knew and loved him, but found it very hard to love someone that I couldn't see or hear. As a child I would see people shouting at church gatherings, claiming that the Holy Spirit was upon them. Honestly, I thought of it as an act, something that older folks did to prove to others that they were holy.

 I didn't find it neccessary to woship God the way that my grandmother and other spiriual people did back then, I  believed that as long as I be a good person and treat others with kindness this would be enough to get me into heaven. I knew that I didn't want to go to hell from the many stories that I heard as a child about that place, but I didn't live for God, I lived as I chose, God was to complicated, I wanted to live free, I didn"t have time for all that holy stuff, the bible was boring to read,  I would fall asleep everytime, { I know now that it was the enermy}, however, at that time I felt that I had heard everything there was to know about God when I was a child so I would only call upon God"s name when I was afraid or in some form of trouble, I used God as a quick fix to my problems, never really believing that change would come, so as I grew into adulthood these beliefs followed.
