Step over these things

"Nobody told me, that the road would be easy, and I don't believe He brought me this far to leave me..."


Hey guys,
Just a quick thought, leading the ultimate Christian life can be so difficult and lonesome (so we think, for God is always with us) at times. In our daily walk we are often burdened with the cares of this life, and we often get caught up in what is going on around us; there are times when we as Christians say "I'm going just keep my mind on God for today"... you're watering the garden and just worshipping God, you're walking to school and saying a prayer or having a little prayer meeting by yourself in your room when all of a sudden, your cell phone rings and you become totally distracted and as soon as you disconnect that call, you totally forget that you were in prayer. Or, you can be going along prayerfully and a car drives pass playing the latest hit single and before you know it that song takes over your mind. Its a challenge especially in this globalized world, we are hooked on our cell phones and in front of our laptops chatting with friends, caught up in idle talk and jesting and these things are ever so easy to do. But Jesus wants His time back. I have to confess that I fall into this set, I love to browse the internet looking on clothes from morning till night, but Jesus is saying to me that He wants His time and Lord, I'm going to give you more of my time because all this net browsing only pulls me further  and further out of your presence. As much as its hard I have to fight for my one soul. I have to cherish my one soul and so I have to step over sin, step over procrastination, step over time wasting- for my Christian walk requires TIME in prayer, TIME in reading the word, TIME in consecration. 


I'm encouraging somebody, whoever you are to devote some serious time to Jesus, talk to Him, cast all your cares upon Him. Ask Him to save your soul so that you can make it into the Kingdom of Heaven. Ask Him to reveal all truth to you and beg Him for mercy- because some of the things that we do are really displeasing to Him...bearing in mind that all power belongs to Him we NEED to ask Him for mercy. God bless you and yours.
