I needed a near death experience to remind me why we cant wait to tell the people we love About jesus

A car ran into a sign on the side of the road, so the car in front of me got scared and stopped but since five seconds ago we were both going 80 miles an hour, didn’t really have time to stop myself. so I had to swerve into the other lane and hope there wasn’t a car there. By the time I was able to turn I was going 67 miles an hour and my mirror almost hit the back of their car. GOD IS GOOD

Ive never prayed so hard in my life, there are so many things that happened that if they had been any different I would not be here Anymore. Never forget to praise the lord, if something good happens its not a coincidence, its a blessing

You Dont realize until your About to die just how much you have to live for

As a young Christian, I am wondering if any of you have advice on positions in ministry for women, or any advise for how to get into ministry?.

Was I Made To Die

Yesterday I felt overwhelmed by everything going on in the world. I've been overwhelmed for a while. I live in America and I am overwhelmed by the upcoming election, the murderous police brutality that Sonya Massey faced, the genocide going on in Gaza, and the wars in both the Congo and Sudan. And of course, I'm always overwhelmed by my own sin. I cried out to God over and over again "Why was I made to die?" I meant this because each day my sin makes me die and I need to rely on God's grace, it makes me feel both helpless and at times hopeless. I want to stop sinning and I want to see God's justice prevail instead of the world's evilness. I know of the countless Bible verses that say God will bring evildoers to their knees, that justice will always prevail, and that He comes by the sword. But I couldn't help but ask God, when?

Because to me it felt as though evil was prevailing and justice was failing.

But then I found another song stuck in my head "Born to Die" a Christmas song encompassing how Mary must have felt when Jesus was born. Each day we kill ourselves with our own sins and each day Jesus saves us, an everlasting gift of life. Jesus lived in the same "bodily tent" as us, his own apostle plotted to kill him. Jesus says: "No one has greater love than this: than to lay down his life for his friend." John 15:13 So it was probably the worst betrayal for him to be sold out by a friend. Jesus understands like no other how evil this world is, he understands our sufferings, and he feels our pain. He feels the world suffering. I often get caught up by the weight of what's going on in the world that I forget what I'm up against. "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." Ephesians 6:12

God promises us everlasting peace and life through Jesus Christ. God promises that blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.

John 16:33 tells us that the battle is already won: "You will have suffering in this world. Be courageous! I have conquered the world."

We were not made to die. We die because of our sins, but we were made to serve in the greatest kingdom there ever will be, The Kingdom of God. The world's evilness might be too much for us to bear, but it is not too much for Jesus, for he's already conquered it all. We must stay focused on what's at hand, and what's really at stake. Our souls.

Lord, I pray a prayer of surrender I pray that all reading this surrender to you. Lord, we are not fighting earthly evils but spiritual evils that you've already defeated. We have been born again in you, we have light because of you, we have hope because of you, we have EVERYTHING because of you. I surrender my anxieties and I encourage those reading this to do the same. We lose peace when we forget your holy name but Lord we pray to remember it. To remember that you've already won and that the Devil will never defeat you. Amen.

I was made to break free from my sins. ⋆.˚🦢⋆࿐♡⋆.˚

If God had a gallery to show off his works of art, he would put a picture of you front and center. Because even with all our imperfections, God wouldn’t change a thing.

Isn’t it wonderful to serve a God like him

Relationships are hard. Thankfully the bible gives us several principles on how to maintain a healthy relationship. Here are some.

Forgiveness: "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." - Ephesians 4:32

Honesty: "Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body." - Ephesians 4:25

Humility: "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves." - Philippians 2:3

Respect: "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." - Matthew 7:12

Communication: "Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry." - James 1:19

Unity: "Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace." - Ephesians 4:3

A little while ago it felt so uncomfortable to post Christian posts, I was so afraid of hate or judgment and yes I did get it. There are haters but I have learned that practicing how to react positively to hate without getting angry has made me a stronger Christian. If you are struggling to take that leap of faith wether it’s online or in person do not be afraid, we serve a great and all powerful God.

It’s never to soon to spread the word, you may never know the difference you make in someone’s life. ❤️
