"None ever sought Me in vain. I wait with a hungry longing to be called upon; and I, who have seen you heart's needs before you cried upon Me, am already preparing the answer.
The anticipatory love of God is a thing mortals seldom realize. Dismiss the thought of a grudging God who had to be petitioned with tears and much speaking before reluctantly He loosed the desired treasures."
Ittook me many years to lose the thought of a grudging God, and even today that catholic thinking sneaks up on me and makes me feel like I paved the road to hell I fee like I'm sometimes on. The reality is that I have a loving, forgiving, and understanding God in my life today, but make no mistake, I had to seperate the God in church from the God in the rooms to make it. I am so grateful you posted this gladlee, it brings back some very fond memories of my sponsor. When I first made it to the rooms I had a beef with God because I thought he left me high and dry when I needed him the most and I held a grudge for quite a while. Later in my recovery my sponsor helped me to see that God carried my sad pittiful ass to the one place where I could be helped. Thank you God!
