Your Childhood Playmate

Who was your childhood playmate? Did you have one? Was it something real or imaginary? Was it your family pet? Did you tell it whatever was on your mind?
I think it's safe to say we all had something or someone. Before knowing what Jesus did for me I pretty much struggled my whole childhood to feel loved by family or friends. No matter how bad I had it though, I know now that I didn't have it as bad as other people did. My son just told me something that made me want to write about this. My son told me that "God sent something to me that I could latch onto for comfort in the form of a doll I still like today." I really appreciated that sentiment. I really think my son was right. I know that there are people that as children take out their fear, sadness, or bitterness onto other people, and sometimes themselves in suicide or harming themselves. No matter what I experienced I'm glad I didn't resort to hurting other people, or physically hurting myself. I hear about children/teenagers that go to school and shoot their classmates to get their anger out and that makes me so sad that nobody or nothing was there for them. I know of a guy that posts videos on YouTube that was previously very violent and took his anger out on his Dad. This guy has spent time in prison for his crime and has received Therapy as well, but the most important thing that happened to this man is that he found Jesus while in prison. You might think I'm weird for saying this but I actually suggest you check him out and think about if Jesus can still perform miracles for us today or not. I think definitely "YES!"

I think it's safe to say knowing the love of Jesus (and God) makes a huge difference in somebody's life. I know I believed in God as a child but that was where it stopped. I now know the difference between knowing God exists and knowing Jesus and what He did for us. WHAT A DIFFERENCE IT HAS MADE IN MY LIFE!
The only thing I regret is that I didn't know it sooner. I didn't get to bring my children up with stories from the Holy Bible, or have the Bible to show me how to parent better than I did. All my years as a parent I wished I had a handbook on how to raise children without doing any harm. I know I did my best but I could have done better I know now. I also think that God is using my childhood, as it was, to give me the inspiration to do this website. Plus, now I know about people like "Got Questions?" that devote themselves to helping answer any questions we have now that we believe in Jesus. I highly recommend you check them out on their website or YouTube channel.
