Awesome God!

Pieces of wisdom, nuggets of Gold for Godly living:

It is not what we do, it is what He did!

I do not believe in the power of prayer, but in the power of our almighty God who answers them!

What makes ours prayers effective is the one to whom we pray!

We have a direct line to Jesus Christ 24 x 7!

We pray to the Father, through his Son, Jesus Christ with his Holy Spirit!

We are blessed to be a blessing! Pass it on!

God blesses us, not to build us up, but to bless others so that we may glorify Him!

Give thanks to God, in all circumstances!

Be mindful of who you are in Christ!

Nothing is too small.

Grace is a gift, we cannot earn it, nor do we merit it--however we need to accept it to receive it! It is freely given.

What we do in His name is our reaction to his gift of grace!

Those who are in Christ have the promise of eternal life.

Suffering for Christ brings us hope and strenghtens our faith. Suffering without Christ is hopeless.

Learn to forgive, it is essential for our spiritual growth.

When you find someone who seems difficult to love, ask God to show you how to live this person.

We have been told to pray for our enemies! It works.

Be careful what you ask for: God has a sence of humor!

Since God's ways are higher than ours (thankfully)-- we need to realize that HE knows what we NEED! HE answers prayers with that in mind. So often HE has answered prayers that we fail to see as HE often answers them differently that what we want or expect so we miss them.

Being a Catholic, Lutheran, Episcolian, __(insert any denominational title)___ does not make us Christian. We are not physically born into our faith. It is the result of our decision to have a realtionship with Christ that results in spiritual birth. As any relationship we need to continually communicate with Christ and seek to know him more through his word. Once we have made that step we are truly Christian--that does not prevent us from being Catholic, Lutheran... Regardless of denominational affiliation those who have chose this realtionship have become brothers and sisters in Christ. We may have different styles of prayer, worship, etc. however we are ONE in CHRIST! One in the Spirit, one in the Lord. United in vision, diverse in action. It is Satan's wish to divide and conqueor, and we let him! We need to love each other with the love that Christ has given us and stop judging one another. We will have more of an impact for his kingdom if we walk together rather than tear each other down.
