How does it work?

We always want to know how things work. We trust so much in ourselves that sometimes when things work out and we do not know how it happened, it makes us feel uncomfortable. Sometimes we may even feel that one day it will all fall apart because we just do not know how it is working. We are children of God and He steps in many times to help us. We do not have to know how He does it or how it works, but we just have to trust that He is in control. I struggled with this for a long time. I am learning to trust God in everything I do, even when I do not know how the solution came up, How he made it work. It will not fall apart because God has fixed it.

Truth

God only functions on truth. He does not scare people. He just says it as it is. Our duty is just to make a choice. Are we going to make the right choice when presented with the truth?

He is just telling us plainly that if He is not in our lives, we are heading for hell. It is not a threat. It is just the plain truth. God is the most truthful and the most real, we canno...

It is impossible

So many people get hurt trying to live for God and so many people become bitter trying to live for God. People just expect a lot from people when they say that they are Christians. We try so hard to live up to the standard that people have set for us and all it leads to is misery. It is very clear to me that it is impossible to live for God. It is however very possible to allow the Lord to live through us. It is not about us, but it is about Jesus. He wants us to lay everything at His feet, all we have to do is to make a choice and then allow Him to lead us by His grace. This includes everything from being able to read your bible everyday, driving, helping people, working, forgiving, loving, correcting, being corrected, and basically everything. This is possible only by the grace of God. People like giving compliments and telling us we have done a good job, but basica...
