Why I Started This Blog

Hi, My name is John Clark, I am a grateful follower of Jesus Christ.

I have been a believer in Jesus Christ for most of my life. I had a faithful grandmother, Fleta Clark, who made sure that I had knowledge of Jesus Christ.

I remember when she gave me that Bible. It was one of my most cherished days. I remember laying in the living room, reading it for hours. Even at eight years old, I knew there was power in the words of that book.

As life would have, I would spend time in the Bible, and then I would spend time when I wasn’t in the Bible.

I knew about Jesus Christ but I wasn’t following Jesus Christ.

This went on for the better part of about 4o years, and one day I decided that I was going to read the Bible every day and never put that book down again.

Thinking this would be the answer to my immediate problems, my life gradually got worse to the point where I wanted to kill myself.

By God’s grace, that did not happen, and I started to follow Jesus Christ and I am thrilled to say that I have read the Bible every day from that decision till now and continue to do so every day.

Fast forward to this year, 2020, I was continuing to read as normal, and as I was reading, the Spirit started to prompt me to write. Ideas started to form in my mind; verses started to make sense.

My mind started to make connection between verses and I started to write.

This is the result of that.

I am going back through my writings and posting them on this blog. These are the thoughts that have been working themselves out in my mind while reading.

#1 I hope that the thoughts that I have glorify God in every way.

#2 I hope they encourage others to walk closer with Jesus Christ.

#3 I hope that if I am in error in my thinking regarding specific ideas about the scripture, someone reads them and leaves comments to clarify my understanding.

Thank you for stopping by and checking it out.

May God Bless You,

John Clark
