a happy heart makes the face cheerful.
I am so tired
How about we love God with our ACTIONS & not only our words.
Yes, Jesus loves you. But he HATES sin. You can not be close with God when you see nothing wrong with your sin. Sin separates you from God. That’s what it does.
You want to go ahead & keep posting things about your sexual life & turn around and talk about how much you love God. Are you even reading His word? The sexually immoral will NOT inherit the kingdom of God. (Ephesians 5:5)
The bible teaches us to judge by the fruits. Well, when you openly discuss your sex life & have no shame in it, that’s what the world sees. You are showing us the fruits of the flesh- not the fruits of the spirit. Read Galatians 5:19-23 & then tell me it’s okay for you to glorify things that God hates.
You claim to be a believer. How about you start acting like one?
our youth put together an awesome human video for easter sunday! love it!
so much truth.
i’d say, i’ve been there. i’ve been to the point of tears because i was so in love with my sin that i couldn’t grasp how God could love me, a sinner who repeatedly and knowingly disobeys the God that i call Lord. even in our most righteous state, it’s considered “filthy rags” (isaiah 64:6) here’s the amazing thing: even while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (romans 5:8) Religion is a set of rules: if i do this and if i don’t do this, God will love me. that’s totally wrong. God ALREADY loves us. Sin separates us from God. That’s why repentance is necessary. it’s not about hypocracy. it’s about understanding that we will all fall short, but we are to strive for holiness. A part from Christ, we can’t do it. it means nothing without Jesus.
when all you know is falling rain, the smalles spark brightens up the darkest day.
unless you’re me,
& you struggle pulling up your anchors in the sea.
when the music fades.
my heart gets attracted to the wrong direction
it flirts with your warning sign
burning it’s letters into my mind
chasing the poison
ignoring the medicine
choosing the darkest vile
to stain my red blood cells
why do i slow dance with sin?
when it’s your grace i’m abiding in?
you offer me a way out
but i fall in
…temptation
it’s the stars you align
they follow your voice
and for you,
they shine
your small still voice
it rings in my ears
challenging my fears
leading me toward repentence
and one step closer to you
interrupting the dance
“may I step in?”
my savior will always win
my heart gets made new
painting your skies a pale blue
all of which
glorifies you
