Bible
Back to Basics
04/06/08 13:44 Categories: Life
The other day I was talking to a friend of mine and I
told her:" When I don't know what to do, I do what I
am best at and that is running away from God". But
what I really need to do in those situations is the
basics and not walk away from God. Sometimes we have
to get back to basics.
What I am about to say are the key elements to being a successful christian. Anybody who want to get back on the right track need to get back to basics. Anybody who is on the right track need to continue doing these basics. The basics are easy things to do and therefore there shouldn't be an excuse why you aren't doing these three things:
1. Pray
2. Read God's Word
3. Based on 1 and 2 do what is right and don't do what is wrong.
Having said that I am not perfect. But I do have a choice every day to either make these basics a part of my life or occupy my mind with everything but these essential basics. So next time I don't know what to do and want to give up I just got to go back to basics. Just like you should go back to basics when you feel your life is out of control and off track!

Jesus will Reign!

When I look into the world, all I see is sin ruling
people’s lives. I see people destroying themselves by
following after their own lusts. I see families
broken up by sin. I see people trade the truth for
their own lies.
I am reading/studying Revelations and I see the world continuing in their denial of Christ even after all the supernatural events that occur after the rapture and during the tribulation. Then this verse sprung out at me in Revelation 11:15
Even when I look at my sinfulness in my life I just can’t wait for Jesus Christ to return and reign over me, without sin serving him, and the world!! There is still a lot of responsibilities for me here on earth but oh how I can’t wait fir Jesus to return and set things straight! Jesus will reign forever and ever amen.
