Just A Little Clarification

It has come to my attention, that some people within the PVBC and area are being told that I am 'coming around' and that 'reconciliation is just around the corner.' with regards to my relationship with my father.

This could not be further from the truth.

I have not seen or spoken to Mike Sullivant Sr. since 1999. 

There is no reconciliation in process as of right now, January 2026, with no hint of it happening anytime soon.

I did receive a Facebook  'friend request' from an account with his name and photo on it, but I did not accept the request.

I do have a tiny bit of contact with a some people of whom I will not betray their confidence, however none of them are my father, Mike S.

I hate that I still have to make posts like this, just to clarify for people who are being lied to. But I will not and cannot allow my name to be used to try and convince others of a certain way of life or belief system. 

Sorry, not sorry.

You Are Made To Worship

 Romans 12:1-2 (ESV)

         "I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."

The above verses that came with my morning devotions stuck out to me. I am a very musical person and I worship through playing instruments and singing. One doesn't normally view their body alone as a tool of worship, but it is! 

No matter how broken you feel or how busted up your body may be, if you present yourself to the Lord with humble spirit and be willing to be used by Him in any way possible, that alone is an act of holy sacrifice and worship to God.

I get it, being physically and mentally broken can make it difficult to 'see' how God could possibly use you, but the position of your heart is where the difference is. Are you afraid of what others may say? Are you focusing on all of the things that you can't do and not the things you can (no matter how small)?

How we live our lives, how we think and act is what matters, living a life that reflects God's purpose and not our own.

I confess that right now, I'm still struggling in this area...knowing what sort of purpose God has for me in this season of life. Where I thought I had it all planned out, I felt really happy with where I was in my life prior to the accident. 

Yeah, God has other plans for me in my life...I just don't know what they are. 

As I sit and work on my heart's attitude, I will continue to walk each step in faith, even though it seems as I'm only getting guidance for those steps right before I have to take them.

I hope that as you follow along with me in my life's journey, that you find not only encouragement, but a 'kindred spirit' of sorts, knowing that you are not alone.

Love ya!

 Ephesians 4...

Yeah, I was going to start listing various verses here but you really should read the chapter for yourself in its entirety.

Over the last few weeks I have been contacted by several people who have left my father's teaching and my heart breaks for each one of them.

Anger, hurt, resentment, bitterness and total turning away from anything God related. These are only some of the messages/conversations I have had with people since starting this blog.

What truly breaks my heart though, are the stories I hear from people who have completely turned their hearts cold towards the Lord and into atheism or the occult/New Ageism. To blame God for what a human being does is heartbreaking and I hope that one day these wounded souls will be touched and healed.

I can't explain why God has spared me from a complete turning away from the faith but I am so thankful...SO thankful for His faithfulness in leading me through some of the darkest of times.

Darkness will never consume the light, the light chases away darkness...every time.

Not every post here will be the most positive one, I am going through a lot in my life both physically and emotionally, but I hope that as you read each entry that you will see through the pain and struggles that I am still relying and leaning heavily on my heavenly Father. 

I am a broken vessel who will continue to grow and learn. I learn so much in the struggle and trial, may I never stop growing in my knowledge of my Lord and Savior.

That's all for today.

Love ya!
