Now I'm Finally Where I Belong...



Looking for that blessed hope,
and the glorious appearing of the great God,
and our Saviour Jesus Christ
. -Titus 2:13

In the midst of whatever life throws at us, It is important to remember where our home is. For those in Christ, we belong to the Father, and someday soon we will be taken up in the clouds to be with him forever. Forever communion with a loving, awesome creator.

It is also important to realize that from the moment that Jesus has come into your heart, He is continually working in you to transform you from glory to glory. You are no longer the same person you were. Some days can be tough, and it can be hard to see the changes that God has made in you. The enemy of our soul wants to dishearten and discourage us. But we walk by faith, not by sight, and we are more than conquerors through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

He Lives In My Heart...



If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness
- 1 John 1:9


Living at college, I see many people trying to fill a void in their life with many different things. People think that a boyfriend or girlfriend, sex, alcohol, drugs, a 4.0 gpa, or whatever is going to fill the void they feel in their life and make them satisfied. But the truth is, while those things may feel good for awhile, the next morning or the next week, or the next month that those things that we have been trying to fill the void have failed. While those things appeal to our flesh, our physical being, the void can only be filled by a spiritual presence. Jesus wants to come and fill that void. He is ready to come into your heart and to cleanse you of those things that you've done, those things that you can't forgive yourself for, he can take that pain away. It is the way we are meant to live, in communion with a holy and righteous and loving God, one who will never abandon us or forsake us, even when we forsake him. He wants you, and He is the only thing that can give you what you are missing. He died for you so that all those things you've done could be brushed aside. It took the blood of Jesus, the blood of innocence, and that blood can cleanse you and bring you to the Father. And He is a perfect father, He loves you and He has a perfect plan for you. Give your life to him, it's time.

I Wanna Give You Every Moment Every Minute...






And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord,
are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another.
For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit. - 2 Cor. 3:18

Growing in God is a continuing process. The great thing is that we have a continuing promise in the bible that God will continue what he started in us as budding Christians. As long as we have a desire, God will meet us where we are and bring us down the road of maturity in faith. He will never get tired of us, forget us, or leave us. He is always there, and he always wants to show us the way. A relationship with God is truly like none other, and it is the only relationship that can satisfy. The only relationship that can bring true peace is a relationship with the Prince of Peace, Jesus.
