Learning to live the christian life together
Getting our priorities straight
Published on February 19, 2005 By getrealwithgod In Religion
We're a generation who majors in minors & minors in majors . We tend to blow the most inconsequential things all out of proportion turning molehills into mountains. We also tend to totally ignore the things in life that are most important. However, when we strive to see things from God's perspective, all of this begins to change. Everything in our lives gradually begins to take on a whole new light. That's why I stress walking in the light of God so much folks. In the light of God we begin to see everything in our lives as it really is, & not as we'd like to believe it is. Things that once seemed so important won't amount to a hill of beans in the light of God, & things we once ignored will suddenly be the most pressing things in our life. I truly believe we as believers are living far below our potential simply because we're not yielding to the influence of the new life God placed inside of us when we were born again. It's not a salvation issue folks. Being born again is. If we're not truly born again, we're not going to heaven. That's a fact. The problem is, the life more abundant Jesus promised us as believers can only be experienced when we begin to walk in the light of God, yielding to the influence of the new life on the inside of us. It's a choice we make one situation @ a time folks. I can choose to walk in the light of God, or I can choose to lean to my own understanding & react. The choice is mine; but the outcome is often far reaching. I may seem boring @ times because I'm so focussed; but the outcome is very important to me. I want to make sure the people I'm influencing in life are not only on their way to heaven, but experiencing the life more abundant Jesus promised us here.
