hey people I’m doing awesome,ive literally dropped 5 lbs my first week with http://newtrend.tumblr.com/diets FB sponsored supplement. Has anyone else tried it? If not, I HIGHLY recommend!!
I am reading this book called radical, interesting book actually a guy is talking about how we as christians arent suppose to live the american dream. and he talks about in the first chapter about Luke 9 how three men come to him and he tell s the first that he will be homeless when following Jesus. and the second he tells him that he cant bury his own father. The third he tells him that he cannot say good-bye to his family. Later in the same chapter he tells a man to sell EVERYTHING and then follow. He also says that you need to pick up your cross daily.
The author from that talks on how that we as christians we dont take the words of Jesus literal. It is as if we say that we can do anything and mold Jesus into something that we can find comfortable for us. And when we do that and go to church and worship a god that isnt really him we are actually worshipping ourselves.
So now this is making me think if Jesus said to sell everything, shouldnt i sell everything. If he said that i will be homeless shouldnt i be homeless etc. So i think when Jesus said something in the Bible he ment what he said. it is just making think i dont want to be worshipping myself i want him the Creator.
I was having a conversation with two friends not to long ago, one of them is a atheist. And me and my other friend follow Jesus. We were discussing science and God and tryign to show her Jesus. I care for my atheist friend deeply we havent been friends that long actually, but we became friends cuz we got in a discussion over Jesus and religion and science. I have been trying to show her Jesus ever since. we seem to talk about him quite often, and we discuss and i try to answer her questions that she dosent understand. So tonight i didnt think that anything was different or out of my normal thing. But i think that she was offended and i didnt mean to offend or seem judging or anything like that. But it is as if she is upset with me and i am a little afraid that she wont talk to me any more and it is terrifing to me cuz i think that i might be the only Jesus that she will see. and i care for her alot i dont want her to burn for eternity, it literally breaks my heart. Please pray for my friend and this situation and for me that i will stand for Jesus always. And i would love some comments or encouragement or advice.
God make this my plea:
God make me see this world the way that you see it. Give me your eyes to look at people and love them the way that you love them. Make me a testament to your name and make people see you through me. Make them see you Lord, if I have to loose everything I will so that you will have the glory Lord. I will do anything for this world to see you. I see people burning now on earth and they havent even been to Hell. They dont even understand that you exist. And we as your children dont help that situation at all. Lord change those heart who say they believe in you BREAK them so that they become more like you. We have to be the light in the darkness. We live in this fallen culture, but as your people we dont step out and do what YOU, JESUS did. I dont understand my father most say we believe but we cant even talk about you or we act the same as the world and we are suppose to be different. WHY God WHY Crush everything that we all hold dear and everything that we know to make us more like you.
