all my being, praise his holy name.
My whole being, praise the Lord
and do not forget all His kindnesses.
He forgives all my sins
and heals all my diseases.
He saves my life from the grave
and loads me with love and mercy.
He satisfies me with good things
and makes me young again, like an eagle. Psalm 103: 1-5
I believe this verse says it all for a Christian. I believe we only love as much as we want to. We don't fully know how to love like the Lord. His love sees nothing, but who the person is. He doesn't judge or show favortism. He is complete in all things. He gives us more than we can ever imagine. Our cups overflow and yet we don't realize it and continue to ask for more. Over the past couple of years I have learned a lot about true Christianity. I have learned about how compassionate Christ really was and I know I will never be able to be as compassionate as he was. He saw the sick and the hungry before anybody else did, he had their problems solved before he ever spoke to them. He was and is something I strive to be everyday, but yet satan keeps holding me back. Satan keeps us from being who we really are. We try to escape his grasp, but he always has a hold. His grasp is on our leg, but not around our neck. Even though he has a hold , my eyes are always looking at Christ. Even when I fall he lifts me up and tells me it alright just keep going.
I've been a fool for so long, only because Satan made me feel that way. I was blinded for so many years by legalism that it made me judge others and allowed me to puff myself up. I believe we all make mistakes all the time, and from now on I will not judge you I will look at you with eyes of Christ as I hope you will look at me the same way. For he didn't judge anybody only those who judged people according to the law.
Life is good no matter what comes our way. Heaven is ours, believe and it will be yours. This year I am going to make real changes. I'm not concerned to much with normal resolutions, they are not the one's Christ is concerned about. Losing weight and quitting smoking are great, but how does that help your soul? I want to give my heart to God, I want to feed the hungry and clothe the poor. The other day in Little Rock we passed by a homeless women holding a sign, needless to say we helped her and it made me feel good. Not to puff myself up, but we did it because we wanted to. I'm not telling this to brag but things need to get done. I want all to share in the gifts that God has lavished on me. Everybody needs a chance and they deserve it no matter what. We are all equal, we need to start seeing that through the eyes of Christ.
I want to change as a person. I want to be more giving and be less selfish. I don't want to live in fear, but live by true faith. I want to take the risks God wants me to take. I want others join me and feel what I am feeling. We shall be guided by God through good times and bad. It's all part of life, good and evil. Let's all be high strung and live in the goodness of God. Share your wealth and knowledge and save the lost. make your resolution toward Godly things and he will see you through. God bless and Happy New Year.
