The Clock Is Ticking

Don't wait until it's too late. None of us are guaranteed another day, another hour or even another MINUTE of life. We can die at any moment and if we haven't accepted Christ , it's FOREVER too late.

A pitiful majority of people on earth never think about where they will spend eternity, because nobody thinks they're time is up yet or can come at any moment, and thats sad, because eternity can be before you finish reading this. And hell is a pitiful place. It's real, and for billions of people who haven't accepted Christ, a moments notice away.

"Believing"

Do you"believe" in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? Well, I believe grapefruit will help me lose weight. But if I buy it and let it rot in my refrigerator without ACTING upon my belief, it will do me NO good! True, real belief involves and manifests itself in action! Jesus said "If you believe in me, you will also do the works that I do" (John 14:12) So, it is true that we are saved by faith alone, but it cannot be "dead faith". Thats what James calls it, "Faith, without WORKS, in itself, is dead"! ( James 2:17) Faith is ACTION, not words, and not just a "belief". Faith and works are in-separable!

Pray, But Be Part Of The Answer!

When you pray for an answer, be aware of the ways in which God does answer. They are many! For instance, if you pray for financial help, its a certain thing God isn't going to magically put a Ben Franklin under your pillow! You might work at a job that never gives overtime, and then one day you walk in and the boss asks you to pull a double shift because someone called in sick. Are you gonna say no?!! Of course not, thats GOD, answering your prayer! He's helping you financially, but you have to WORK for it, be part of your own answer!

Let Your Body Honor God

Want a great motivator to lose weight? How about the Bible? Gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins! I used this Christian moral principle in 2009 to lose 40 pounds! I was eating all the sweets and junk food I could get, there was no tomorrow! I realized (God brought me to that realization), that I was truly pigging out beyond belief and that it was sinful in that I was not only damaging my bodily health that God requires me to take care of, but dis-obeying Him. It was really strong motivation, and I undertook a whole new healthy way of living and am now a respectable weight and in good health!
