I Am A Christian
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I am saved"
I'm whispering "I was lost"
That is why I chose this way.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need someone to be my guide.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
and pray for strength to carry on.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
and cannot ever pay the debt.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are too visible
but, God believes I'm worth it.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain
I have my share of heartaches
which is why I speak His name.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority.
I only know I'm loved.

THE WILL OF GOD
The will of God will never take you,
Where the grace of God cannot keep you,
Where the arms of God cannot support you,
Where the riches of God cannot supply your needs,
Where the power of God cannot endow you.
The will of God will never take you,
Where the Spirit of God cannot work through you,
Where the wisdom of God cannot teach you,
Where the army of God cannot protect you,
Where the hands of God cannot mold you.
The will of God will never take you,
Where the love of God cannot enfold you,
Where the mercies of God cannot sustain you,
Where the peace of God cannot calm your fears,
Where the authority of God cannot overrule for you.
The will of God will never take you,
Where the comfort of God cannot dry your tears,
Where the Word of God cannot feed you,
Where the miracles of God cannot be done for you,
Where the omnipresence of God cannot find you.
"Everything happens for a purpose.
We may not see the wisdom of it all now
but trust and believe in the Lord
that everything is for the best."

*Disclaimer: The opinions expressed on this page are MY OWN thoughts. They are not meant to condemn any ones belief system. What you believe is between your heart and God. No matter what other believers say/tell you, the truth is revealed to you by reading the Bible and looking into your heart. Theses are the resources God uses to teach us.
Matthew 18:3
Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
I have believed in God and the trinity from childhood. I accepted Christ as my Saviour when I was 9 years old. The innocence of my heart then and the faith I had God was unquestionable.
As I grew in my faith , I wanted to grow in knowledge. I learned from remarkable and inspirational people that the love of God is forever. However the different doctrines only created confusion for me. There was NO DOUBT that I loved and served an amazing God. OR that I was not LOVED by him. It was my fellow Christians who served to discourage my faith and my belief.
Do we as Christians have the right to tell people they are going to hell? It is my belief to do so is
proving our ignorance as Christians. FOR GOD SO LOVED WORLD HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PARISH. We are not to judge others and WE do not determine who is worthy of heaven.
Again that is between our hearts and God. I BELIEVE THAT CHRIST DIED ON THE CROSS SO WE DO NOT GO TO HELL.
I believe God has a plan and purpose for each of us before we are born. He reveals to us what we need for our walk in HIS time and when we need it most. Every person will go through trials and tests of faith, as a Christian it is my duty to nature the seed planted in each person by God. This does not give me the right to criticize and condemn the person for their belief. We are to become teachers not preachers. My goal is to live my life so those who do not know God, come to know him through me. It is not my job to save people. CHRIST DID THAT ALL READY.
I believe God provides us with people who will enhance our faith and remind us of how loved we are. I have been so blessed by the people God has sent to me. I am including those who are non-believers. Yes even those who have hurt us. For everything we go through in life, is a lesson taught and learned. So that we can teach and nurture others in their time of need. We need do use empathy and compassion in helping others.
ACCEPTING CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOUR IS A CHOICE YOU HAVE TO MAKE. NO ONE CAN MAKE THAT CHOICE FOR YOU.
No matter how much we love you and want it for you.
NOTHING HAPPENS BEFORE IT IS TIME.
It is my prayer that you do choose to believe THAT GOD SENT HIS ONLY SON TO SAVE US FROM THE TORMENT OF HELL.
My advice to new believers is to READ THE BIBLE… IT IS THE TRUE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE. Pray with an open heart to God for guidance. Do attend church because that is where you will find the people God has chosen to TEACH you. I believe his spirit leads us to many places all meant to increase our knowledge.
Remember that we have so many spiritual and loving people around us nurturing, teaching and guiding us. The truth is only known when it is between your heart and GOD
