What A Mighty God We Serve

Have you ever really thought about how big our God is? I mean really! We serve a big, mighty and powerful God!! He made the earth, and every living thing on it. God keeps everything on earth just right so that we (humans) can continue living. And with billions of people on earth, don't you think He would have to be really big to keep everything under control? God creates each and every person in His image. Not only that, but He is always watching over all of us! Because He love you and me!! I know that may sound really simple, but if you think about it. I mean really think about it, just think of all the things you have done wrong, all the things you could do, and the things you haven't even done yet; God still loves us even in spite of all that! If and when you wrap your mind around that, you get this awesome, and GREAT feeling inside and it makes you wonder: How after everything I've done and after all the times I've screwed up could God still love me? The answer is He loves you because He is God!! He always has love you and always will love you. I'm sure everyone has heard or read John 3:16. But have you ever taken the time to sit and think about it?FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD Okay He didn't just love the world, but He SO loved the world. Many time we just seem to skip over the word SO, and pay it no attention, but even though it may seem like such a small word it means a lot!HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON God sent His only son to earth to die for our sins so we wouldn't have to spend eternity in hell. God didn't send just any son, not one the He would make another one of, but God sent His one and only PERFECT son to die for us.SO THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES WILL NOT DIE, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.If we truly believe 100% in Jesus Christ, that He died for our sins we can live forever with God in Heaven. All God wants us to do is believe that He sent His son to die for our sins, and Praise His Holy name!! And He will be pleased! Doesn't everyone like to make their daddy happy? Then shouldn't we try our best to make our Heavenly Father happy? It sounds simple enough doesn't it? Believe Jesus died for our sins, and Praise God with our whole heart, soul, mind, and strength. But we tend to over-think things and make them more difficult than they should be. If we all praised God with everything we have then I believe that He would be pleased with us. So I challenge you and myself too; to praise and worship God with everything you have! Don't hold anything back!!!! He will then begin to work in your life and you will see changes. When worshipping if you feel like clapping, then clap; if you feel like raising your hands then do it; do whatever you feel in your heart. Just as long as whatever you do isn't for show!! Don't worry who, if anyone is watching. It shouldn't matter, focus only on God! But if there happens to be someone watching you then maybe it will cause them to think, and want whatever you have, HAPPINESS!!In Jeremiah 1:10 God says "Today I appoint you to stand up against nations and kingdoms. Some you must uproot and tear down, destroy and overthrow. Others you must build up and plant." So with that in mind and school starting back I am really excited!! Not because it is my senior year, but more of the fact that it is gonna give me a chance to spread my fire. This summer is so different than last year, but I am feeling more confident about this year. The fire really started in me last summer, but after school started back I kinda let it die down some; although it never really went out it wasn't as strong. God has really shown me a lot in the past year. at church camp this year God really started building up the fire in me again, and then He was all over the trip I took overseas! I have a really good feeling that this school year things are going to change! And the whole deal with my headaches starting up again, I think it is just satan trying to kill some of my fire and some of my joy. But I am not going to let him. I am ready cause God is right beside me in this. I can always lean on Him and I'll be okay. This school year I really want to be a window, if that makes any sense. When other people look at me I don't want them to see me as much as I want them to see Jesus through me. I want the things I do and the things I say shown them Jesus and how He has blessed my life! So I have been praying for God to make me a window.
