Listen, Think, Act

Quote

If we would take a moment to listen, think, and speak before we act in love, the world would be a much better place. Think and act as Christ did. Our motive should not be questioned, ’is he/she a child of Christ, or acting to gain acceptance by wearing the cloak of a Christian ambassador?’

We are 2.2 billion strong, let’s march forward as a proud people. Proud of our Father and what He represents to us (salvation), not proud of our carnality. The best of us are sinners and fall short of the glory of God.

Jonah and Gods command in context.

Guest Author's avatarYAHWEH-NISSI

In Jonah’s defense, what God called him to do was not as simple as the tasks we fall short of today. Please understand that the book of Jonah was written in a very hostile time. The City of Nineveh was where modern-day Iraq now sits. The task that God was calling Jonah to do was a very difficult task. God set the kingdoms up through David, then there was a division in the kingdoms. There was the northern kingdom, which was Israel and the southern kingdom, which was Judah. Jonah was a prophet of God, living in the northern kingdom, where all the kings were extremely evil. They were not doing godly things. In fact, they were “runaways” themselves. Jonah was a prophet of God in this very hostile and evil environment. His job description was to speak into people’s lives based on what God had told him to speak.

Rooted In Christ: Our Walk Is His Walk

Quote

Learning to walk with Christ is a process, never give up, never give in. He is looking for progress, not perfection. We all fall short of the glory of God.

~ Lisa Blair

When we become Christians we are rooted in spirit through Jesus Christ. We find shelter and rest in our relationship with Him and His Word. His Walk becomes our walk.

Loving Like Christ

Quote

Let the Holy Spirit shine through you. Being Christ-like is loving like Christ!

~ Lisa Blair

Most of my posts focus on the goodness of God and becoming more Christ-like every day; allowing the Holy Spirit to radiate outwards for others to see. The way to accomplish this is through love. We are to love all people as Christ did during His Walk, paving the way for us. Love is the fundamental law. If we achieve this, all other laws have been met. Continue to live your life through Him.
