Are You A Struggling Christian?

When you accept Jesus as your savior, you are forever saved. So thank Him for what He has done for you at the cross. 

Now, as we live each day. We still do the normal stuff as Christians. We eat, sleep,go to the gym, watch movies, lose our patience and get mad at something or at someone. 

That is totally normal. 

We know that as a Christian you'd be labeled as "perfect" Christian and then you start to get cautious of your behavior. You'd be doing a checklist of your what-to-do or what-not-to-do list. You'd spend time thinking and evaluating yourself all day, to check if you are still worthy of His love. Soon it will become a habit and will be so stressful on your part. You will find it's not healthy anymore. The more you see yourself as bad and not worthy of His love, unconsciously, you'd start going away far from Him. Instead of coming boldly to Him, you'd run away and find your own comfort zone.

As you know, you are not meant to live by watching or rating yourself all day, forever so you can be worthy of God's love. No. No. No my friend. God is not like us. Imagine if God is like us, we'd probably all go to hell. Being a Christian doesn't work that way. True Christians believe that God loves them so . Period!

God loves you so much. He sent Jesus as your redemeer for nothing. That's why Jesus keep telling you to come to Him and He will give you rest...not stress. 

I won't take this long for now.

I urge you to keep believing that God loves you so no matter what. 

So relax. Live life to the fullest with Jesus and experience victory 

all for His glory!

See you on my next blog. :)

Traveling

Just got back home from a verry tiresome wedding event. 

I'm glad I still manage to read this daily so I can share it with you. It refreshes me when I do this everytime. Don't know why. 

Anyhow,

Be blessed. 

Jesus replied, “Didn’t I tell you that if you had faith, you would see the glory of God?”

—John 11:40 (CEV)

I have a perfect plan for your life. But I don’t show it to you all at once. It is like a road that you must travel one step at a time.

Sometimes the road seems blocked, or it opens up so slowly that you feel frustrated. But then, when the time is right, the way before you suddenly clears. All that you have longed for and worked for is given to you freely—as a gift. And that is when you catch a glimpse of My Power and My Glory.

Don’t be afraid of your weakness. It’s like a stage where My Power and Glory are the actors, putting on amazing shows. Just keep walking along the path I have prepared for you, depending on My Strength to keep you going. Expect to see some miracles— and you will. Not just anyone can see My miracles, but those who live by faith can see them clearly. When you walk by faith—going step by step with Me—you are able to see My Glory.

Love,

Jesus

Good morning :)



We have small troubles for a while now, but they are helping us gain an eternal glory. That glory is much greater than the troubles.
—2 Corinthians 4:17 (ICB)

When you have a problem that goes on and on, with no end in sight, see it as a wonderful opportunity. An ongoing problem is like having a tutor who is always by your side. If you are willing, you can learn so much from your trouble.

Ask Me to open your eyes and your heart to all that I am doing through this problem. I may be teaching you patience or persistence. Perhaps I am strengthening your faith or your courage.

Then thank Me for the lessons you are learning. When you can be thankful for a problem, it loses its power to drag you down. In fact, your thankful attitude lifts you up into heavenly places with Me, where you see the situation from My point of view. This lets you see your problem as a small, temporary trouble that is helping you gain an eternal Glory—blessings that will never end!

Love,
Jesus

Tithe Has Set Me Free

Used to ignore tithing. But when I learned that it's a way of honoring Jesus. Way of proclaiming that He is alive. I said wow!! I shall keep doing this. I prayed that I just don't want to be like a noisy gong, praising Jesus all day , saying halleluyaahs and all but then wouldn 't even give up 10% of my salary to God. I didn't like it so I prayed that revelation would sink in. And it did!
Now, it's amazing on how He is blessing me Big time!

From now on, I shall live to tithe. Forever!!!

Thank You Jesus!!

Being Holy Doesn't Mean Being Goody- goody

You surely know that your body is a temple where the Holy Spirit lives.
The Spirit is in you and is a gift from God.

—1 Corinthians 6:19 (CEV)

Take time to be holy. But how? Holy doesn’t mean being a goody-goody, or thinking you are better than others. Being holy simply means setting yourself apart for sacred use—My use.

Spend some quiet moments with Me. Let Me work in your heart and mind. I am re-creating you into the person I designed you to be.

Be sure to set aside enough time for just being with Me. Your closeness to Me will strengthen your faith and fill you with My Peace. It will also prepare you for the many blessings I want to give you.

When you take time to be holy, your heart becomes a clean temple of My Holy Spirit. He is able to do more in and through you than you could ever ask or imagine. So make time for Me. You won’t regret it.

Love,
Jesus

With Jesus Nothing is Impossible

In this world, some people struggle to keep their finances stable, their name intact and their lifestyle always uncomparable.

There's nothing wrong with that. But if you become so engrossed in doing that, that would be unhealthy... To your body, mind and spirit.
You will soon come to realize, you are now subject to every person's ridicule and their demands would become a one-day target to achieve.

Life is like that when you give yourself away to the world and just let it flow wherever the current goes.

But not in Jesus...

You are blessed because you are in Jesus.

And when Jesus is in you,
You don't really need to become a superhero in the eyes of man.

Your ultimate goal is just to rest
and let Jesus be your hero.

How cool is that?

The Price Has Been Paid!

He himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins—and not only our sins but the sins of all the world.

1 John 2:2, NLT

The Price Has Been Paid!

When guilt and condemnation weigh heavily on their conscience, many feel the need to pay for their sins. To appease the sense that they have failed, they punish themselves by mentally berating themselves repeatedly for their failings, and some even go so far as to cause injury or harm to their own bodies. And when things don’t work out in their studies, work or relationships, they tell themselves that they deserve the negative outcome. They don’t feel that they deserve to succeed in what they do.

My friend, the answer to our consciousness of guilt, failure or inadequacy is the cross. The cross declares, “Jesus, the sinless, spotless, beloved Son of God, died in your place. There is your punishment! He was pierced. He was cut. He was wounded for your transgressions. He was crushed so that you don’t have to be crushed. He died young so that you don’t have to die young!”

Our conscience is satisfied when we look at the cross and see Jesus Christ hanging there, suspended between heaven and earth. He who knew no sin became our sin, and He bore the fullness of God’s holy and righteous indignation in His very own person on our behalf.

When we look to the cross and realize, “There is my punishment. There is my death,” our conscience says, “Peace. It’s paid.” We don’t have to wound ourselves. We don’t have to beat ourselves. Jesus suffered it all for us so that we can have His every blessing and reign in life. He alone is the sacrifice that atones for all our sins. Hallelujah!
