Here are more thoughts I have on purpose and some Biblical things that God has required of us.
This is a question that we have all asked ourselves. What is my purpose? Here are some of my thoughts on this subject.
The topic of the devil has been something that has been on my mind for some time now. We constanlty here teachings about the power that satan,the devil,the deceiver or whatever else we want to call him. This is my viewpont.
Many times our past keeps us in bondage. It's not until we let go our past that we truly can move forward and make our journey easier.
I came across a saying that St. Frances supposedly wrote. I'm not even sure who St.Frances was but he was quoted saying "Preach the Gospel, if necessary use words." This quote is short but strong and is a big part of being the Church.
As we all know Thanksgiving starts the Christmas season. It is a time to reflect back at the year to give thanks for what we have. It's also a time that we choose to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior and end the year off with resolutions for the upcoming year.
I was having a conversation with a good friend of mine about how my life has changed from now compared to where I was 5 yrs ago. I'm not talking about the normal changes that come with life. I'm talking about the changes with my life with Christ. I sometimes struggle with not having that spiritual feeling. I actually started to question how spiritual I was.
This September 11th was the 7th Anniversary of the Twin Towers attack. Here are some of my thoughts when remembering that day.
This story was sent to me through email. It reminded me how people can be. Sometimes people come to us with problems and if it doesn't concern us directly we say things like "I'll pray for you" or "have faith my brother". We never think that it will affect us. This story reminded me that we should never ignore anyone's cry for help, especially as the Church.
I like the fact that Jesus spoke in parables. He spoke in parable to help us understand things a little better. In Matthew 25 He gave a few different parables. For me these parables gave us some good things to go by to be "The Church".
