God is Awesome -Part 4

There is no place like home is one of my favorite sayings. What is home to me? It's not just the structure, the house, but what God has given me. A home full of his love and mercy, a husband that love's God and seeks God as I do. This is what I am thankful for no matter where I am, the values and the fear of God in my home. We are not perfect in any shape or form, but we handle most, if not all situations knowing that God is our guide, our redeemer, our Heavenly Father that wants the best for us, and blesses us. I give thanks to God for all I have and don't have, for he knows what is best for me. Life is not easy, but with Christ as our guide I can guarantee you it is much easier to handle things when afflictions come to our home or life. Every single tear he will wipe from your face, and he will be your strength when you cannot go on.
I know life can be stressful, scary, and painful. Not knowing what is next in life, working endless hours, having all the things you want, or the other way around, no matter what the issue is at the moment, we all have problems. However, how you see life matters and affects what your path is and will be in life. I ask myself why do I do what I do, is there a purpose? Behind everything we do there is a purpose, most likely it involves your goals, and family. There is nothing wrong to pursuit happiness in material things, self improvement, love, and spiritual aspects. God is good and wants the best for us. However, what I think is best for me, most probably is not what God thinks. You see, there is a wonderful purpose in life for every single one of us. God has a plan for your life, just like he has one for me. By using logic and reason, the only way I can understand what my real purpose in life is through our Creator, is getting to know him. No matter if you have reached your goals or not, life will always have a calling from God. There is an emptiness in my heart and your heart that nothing in this world will fulfill it, not money, not pleasures, not fame, not people.
Once I understood and accepted that my way is not the right way, I have allowed God to guide me, I can tell you something, Life Makes So Much Sense. I have open the door of my heart to Christ, now he lives in me. Giving my life to Jesus Christ has been the most wonderful experience and have never, will never regret it. I asked myself, what is there to loose? I have gained so much more!
Life is a roller coaster, it has its ups and downs. We never know what to expect. You see with God as my guide, I know he will not let me fall, and if I do fall, He will be there to pick me up. You see, God is always there, there is no place you can hide from God.  He keeps an archive of our life on this earth and he will read it to you one day. We have been giving the chance to make our own decisions, no matter where life has taken us, we know good from bad, right from wrong, love from indifference. I choose God, God is Love, and so much more. Just like everything else in life, giving your heart to Jesus Christ is the first step. How will I know what his purpose for me is, prayer, his word, and going to his house, church. Believe me through His Holy Spirit he will guide you and show you the way. For the Father in heaven knows what is best for you. The bible is the map of life. All you need to know and want to understand about life is in His word. You are new in him, no matter what your past is, as long as you are living, you have the opportunity to be saved by Christ the Lord. What best decision to make than to know and have the assurance that God is your Lord and that he will provide. He loves you, for he gave his one and only Son to die in the cross for your sins and my sins, so we can have life for eternity in His Glory. His blood cleanses us from all sin and Christ has risen to defeat death.
I pray you open your heart to God now and truly seek him. You will not regret it, ever. People that have made the decision to follow Christ have never regret it, but I know people that have rejected Christ and have regret it. The Pleasures of this world are temporary, but our decision to follow Christ is eternal.

God Bless

May 21, 2011 Judgement Day?

The Answer is in the Word of God <3

Matthew 24:36-44
The Day and Hour Unknown
    36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.    42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.



God's Grace and Love for us is unmeasurable, he is a gentlemen and will not force anyone to love him. He is your Heavenly Father who is awaiting for you to repent of your ways, and start a new life with him leading. He needs to be the Boss of your life for now and ever. He does not want you to give up and loose your life to Satan, he is waiting for you to say; Lord Jesus take my hand I am yours <3 :) I was lost and now I am found :)

Christian Life is All About - 4 steps

29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. Romans 8:29



Step 1
- Jesus the incarnated Son of God is the reigning Lord of our lives


Step 2
- We have a personal responsibility to "live out" what he placed within us ( righteous life)

Step 3
-God wills and works within us to make it so - awesome promise to us

Step 4
-God's Ultimate goal for us is Christ-likeness

If you have recently accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior this is what we Christian have to focus on. Our life is filled with hope, hope that life does not end and our best treasurers are with Him for eternity.

It is a pleasurable thing for God that we walk in His spirit. Psalm 147:11 says: 
the LORD delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.

Psalm 119:35-40
35 Direct me in the path of your commands,
   for there I find delight.
36 Turn my heart toward your statutes
   and not toward selfish gain.
37 Turn my eyes away from worthless things;
   preserve my life according to your word.
38 Fulfill your promise to your servant,
   so that you may be feared.
39 Take away the disgrace I dread,
   for your laws are good.
40 How I long for your precepts!
   In your righteousness preserve my life.

God bless :)

Uncertainty

Exodus 15:2 The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.
Psalms 18:2 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower


Thank you Heavenly Father <3
