Getting back to the basics

We all know the  verse John 3:16 for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.  For this is the back bone of our belief system but do we truly understand what it means? Do we truly understand Gods love and mercy?

The more I study and learn about God and who he truly is the more I realize I don’t know. God wants us to know him not just as a king but as a daddy.  Do we spend enough time with him to know him?  Do we want revelation from God? God loves us with his whole heart. It’s time we get back to the basics and stop being hollywood and start being holywood..

Church

What is the definition of the word church? Are we still living in the 1800s listening to the hymns our great great grandmothers wrote. Now don’t get me wrong those songs were great. Those songs and lifestyles minstered to the people of that time.

I say all of this to say I was faced with with a question recently. Am I really being the church?  Am I doing everything i can to to show Gods love to world? The church is Gods tool to get his message out. If I am not being  the tool God can use how will Gods love reach the world.

My challenge is lets be the church and show Gods love to the world and watch as Gods glory falls

The unchanging truth

When I was first-born I had no limits,no obstacles, and I could take the world by storm, It took me a while but eventually I was climbing around and getting into everything I could get my hands on. As I grew up I formed relationships some good some bad.  These relationships molded me into who I am today.

As I have grown I have realized that the world we live in is not perfect. People will say things and do things just to put me down. To make me feel useless or not worthy to be cared for. Over the last week I have taken on a different perspective. Allow me to explain myself. My God loved me before I was born and died for all my past, present, and future sin, Which means I am a joint hier with Christ. I am a born again saved by grace believer and I believe with all my heart that God has a purpose and plan for my life. It is a greater plan then I can even imagine and that is the unchanging truth.

God is the same yesterday today and forever!!!

white fire

My life has changed  a whole lot since I wrote my last blog… Ita actually changed a lot in the last week. God has allowed me to see the world in a whole different light We as children of God are called to be like fire. However its not the normal fire that first comes to mind when we think of fire. God wants us to be as hot as white fire..

So what does it mean to be white fire? Is becoming white fire even possibe?  If we hunger sfter God daily. if we seek his kingdom before our own and love him with all our heart mind body and soul then yes we are white fire.. so I challenge you become white fire and see what God does for you!!!!!

diamond in the making

Often times in our lives we wonder why things happen. we wonder why don’t get the job, get into the college we dreamed about, or have that child we always wanted. Did we do something wrong? Is God punishing us? These are questions I asked myself almost daily thinking I am being punish by God because I didn’t do something right but something became very clear to me yesterday. As I sat in church like I do almost very Sunday not knowing whether to laugh or cry. When  I felt a peace run through my body and I knew something was changing . I had no idea what I just knew something was about to change in me. Moments later my pastor starting preaching about how in life we go through things and we don’t understand why. we don’t always see the things that God is doing behind the scenes but  if we hold on through the trails and presures  we face God will make us beauitful diamonds. I don’t quite understand what broke in me at that point but I do know i just starting balling. I was like the realization that God was making me into a beautiful diamond was overwheming. At that point I knew God still had his hand in my life and the promises he promised me were growing inside me and i knew that God would finish we work he started in me.

All that to say if you are going through something in your life that you feel as though you cant handle it hold on God will finished what he started and make you a beautiful diamond.

making the devil made

lt all started last sunday when we literally put fingerprints on the walls in church. There is nothing like being in Gods presence. Its like seeing and feeling little piece of heaven. when this happens it makes the devil so mad because you are getting closer to God. let me explain. By sunday night my throat was on fire, Monday my computer locked up, Tuesday and Wednesday were crazy days at work so bad I wanted to cry. Thursday my phone got wet.. Friday my direct manager showed up and saturday is yet to be seen.

If I have learned anything from this week it is to trust in Gods plan and not my own. Am i hoping for a great mothers day service absolutely all I can say is bring on devil beause my God has already won. our father will never leave us or forsake us!!!!!!!!!

who am i?

As little children we dream of being doctors, singers,and scientists all of which are very realistic in our eyes because as children we dream without boundaries. As we grow up however those dreams seem to change because  we get hurt by the events that happpen in our lives. I can say this from events that have happen in my life but what if it was possible to get those dreams back? Would we do whatever it took to dream again? These questions may seem a little childish but they are very realistic at all stages of life. As people we have to decide whether or not we are going to choose Gods plan for our lives. God does not and will not force himself upon us it is a choice. I myself have struggled with the idea of truly living in Gods plan. There were many lies the enemy had told me and still tries to tell me on an hourly bases. There have been many times in my life when I have wanted to run away and hide in my closet but I have made an out right decision this week I will move forward and follow Christ competely!!!! I know full well that this will not be an easy task but my God is greater then anything this would has to offer.

God’s defintion of who we are is by no means what we sometimes think of ourselves. So what does God say about is children? He says that we are made in His image and likesness. God sees us as very important for we are his sons and daughters. God loved you and I enough to send his son to to die for us if that not love I dont know what is,   Love you all
