Who is God/Jesus?

Who Is God/Jesus?-It was getting close to the day that I start writing my
blog. However, I had no idea what to write about. One afternoon, while I was
thinking about it, the thought came to me, "Write about Me" Me, of course,
being God. But then I had to ask the Lord what to write about. Here is what
we (Him and I) came up with.

The first thing that God is to me is my Father. Yes, He is mighty, awesome,
holy, etc. All those superlatives And I praise and worship Him for it. Right
now, though, what means most to me is  that, in addition to being my Father,
He is also my Daddy. To me, the word "daddy" has the connotation of somebody
a small child can run to when he or she needs to be comforted. I admit that
I often feel like like a lost, lonely, hurting little girl. At times like
that, I really want some comforting. I am so tempted to e-mail somebody and
whine to that person. I never do, though. I know that no human can give me
comfort that I want and need. How can they when they can't really understand
what I am going through? But the Lord can. And will. Sometimes, I get
comfort from the Bible. Other times, I feel the presence of God so strongly.

And Jesus is my brother. My only brother passed away before I was born so I
have no idea what it is to grow up with a brother. However, after watching
my son with his younger sister, I have some idea of what being a brother
means. Donovan and Heidi bickered a lot, like siblings do but, if somebody
else even looked at Heidi the wrong way, Donovan  was ready to fight. I think that
Jesus is like that. When anyone becomes a born-again Christian, he or she
becomes a sibling of Jesus. Our Big Brother is going to fight for us, no
matter who or what tries to come against us.

Jesus is also my best friend. My definition of a good friend is one who
sticks with you no matter what. Through good and not so good times. I have a
few wonderful friends that fit in that category and I appreciate them very
much. However, wonderful as they are, they simply can't be with me all the
time. Like the middle of the night. But my best friend, Jesus can. In the
Bible, He promised to never or forsake us. I constantly avail myself of that
promise. There are plenty of times when there is nobody else in around to talk
to but Jesus is always there. And I know He loves to hear from me!

Jesus is my future. Of course, my ultimate future is Heaven. And, oh how
glorious that will be! But , thanks to Jesus, I also have a future during
this life here on earth. I know that future means restoration to total health.
Although I have no idea when or how it will come about. Beyond that, I have
no idea what my life will be like. Only that it will be good. I know that, for
now, my part is to wait patiently (easier said than done) for God to work
things out in His way and time.

But Jesus is also my present. Looking at it from a purely human point of
view, my present stinks. Bigtime! However, I do try to see things from God's
point of view. I have to or I would lose my mind. I often think that God
must have planted something in me that I don't see and that is enabling me
to cope day-to-day. I also know that He has given me an enormous amount of
grace just to get through each day. Having said that though, I still have
meltdowns and spells of depression. But, thanks to the grace of God, they
don't last long and, as time goes by,are, I think, less frequent and/or
intense.

I don't think this blog turned out the way I thought it might. However, even though I have a topic for that particular blog, when I start to write, I just write. Whatever comes out, comes out. So this must be what the Holy Spirit wanted me to write about.
