“It was for freedom that Christ set us free”. Galatians 5:1
This blog is an answer to God’s calling that He empowered me to follow, teach the word of God and encourage the believers in our eternal God, Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus, to enter the eternal relationship with Him.
About three years ago, inspired by a revelation, I dared to not only believe, but truly live out the notion that every question in life whether it is personal, social or concerning the entire world was meant to be answered by the very Word of God. Taking it even further, what if there is only one true source of all the answers to all your challenges whether they are personal, marital, parental, vocational or spiritual (2 Peter 1:3)?
You see, I am fully convinced that it is not only possible, but it was designed and fulfilled for us. All you have to do is to ask yourself: What if it is actually true? What if all the answers are within your reach, gently, timely and purposefully dispensed by the very hand of God? What if there is the truth about your life’s purpose that was meant to set you free from the darkness of the uncertainty, from the frustration over ever changing opinions on life of so called “professionals”? Can you imagine the freedom from the unrelenting void deep in your soul produced by the dissatisfaction that you are so used to tolerate and mask with a smiley face? Aren’t you tired of desperately wishing things would change?
I know some of you are thinking, “Who is this character that thinks he has all the answers, and why should I believe him?” You are right. According to this world’s standards I am absolutely nobody, and in that I find great comfort. I have no answers for you, but I know the One who does. It is in Christ, our promised Messiah, I am worth something, and guess what, my price tag is IDENTICAL to yours, whether you believe in Him or not, regardless of your skin color, background or anything you can ever come up with that makes you different from me.
If you are a non-believer in Christ Jesus, but willing to read my posts, then be patient with me and yourself, and continue on reading. My sincere hope is that you find and accept Jesus Christ who died for the entire human race including you. The very fact that you are reading this out of curiosity, as you may think, is that the only true God is calling you. Keep reading if you are willing, ask questions, pray to Him to reveal Himself to you, and The God of all creation will enter your live. I did just that in December of 1995, but I will tell you that story later. My commitment to you and to those who are of the faith is to completely abandon my own desires, notions, opinions and wishes for you. All I want to offer to give freely is what I so abundantly receive from The Lord in order to receive full joy in witnessing that abundance manifest in you more abundantly, blessing you more richly than me.
If you are a believer, then take this journey with me and be encourage by learning how to walk with Christ daily. I challenge you, my brothers and sisters, to question not the validity or the amount, but rather the effectiveness of your faith in your own life and those around you. Is your relationship with our God what you hoped for? Is your marriage all that you thought it would be and getting better every day? Are you more confident and secure in your faith and life now than a year ago? Are you finding yourself in the state of pretense in most areas of your life more than you are willing to admit? Are you willing to be honest with yourself and answer the above questions truthfully? We were meant to live in TOTAL freedom, : “It was for freedom that Christ set us free;” (Galatians 5:1). This freedom is not only in being in Christ which is the beginning of our faith, but also in walking with Him daily regardless of the circumstances around us. No matter how we look at this walk with Him, we must come to the conclusion that it will require continuous change in us in order to become more like Jesus, the One who never changes.
Jump in with me in this journey of change, and let’s see how God honors those who are committed to becoming all that He purposed us to be in His good and perfect will, in His Son Jesus, and by the power of His Spirit.
Stay tuned!
