I want to throw an extra blog out tonight about some
thoughts I have had the past few days from conversations I have had and media
posts I have seen. The thought that
keeps coming to my mind is how dark the world we live in, really is. The more I dive into different subjects, I
find myself with a broken heart for a broken world. It’s a heaviness that sits on my heart. I guess you could say the responsibility that
Jesus gave us before he left, is something we shouldn’t mess around with.
If I am completely honest, my deepest passion in my heart is
to live accordingly to the Word of God.
I see brokenness everywhere, in my daily activities, spiraling downward
to the evil that is in my own heart. 1
Timothy 1:15 keeps ringing in my mind.
It says, “Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance:
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners – of whom I am the worst.” I myself can turn into the most evil man in
a second. But the grace of God has an
overwhelming presence in my life and I realize daily on how much grace God has
given me. Makes me realize the selfishness in my own heart is great. You see, this broken world that we live in
makes me want to better myself in the Love and Grace of God, so that I can
shine the light of Jesus to a world that is broken.
I read a book the past month (WAHOO! I READ A BOOK) called, “The
New How to Study Your Bible.” I found
out that the book is one you read as you study the bible, but I wanted to see
what it was about first. I am about to
embark in its workbook and study the bible like never before. With everything in my own life happening,
with everything that I keep hearing about, or even talking about, I have a
desire to know the Word of God to the best of my knowledge. You see, I truly believe in Jesus. I know some people find him crazy and just
some man in history, but I truly believe he is the Son of God and I believe
whole-heartedly every word of Scripture and I can’t wait to keep learning.
My desire is that I can love like Jesus did. Love a world
that so desperately needs the hope of Jesus. I hope I keep striving for him
daily, dying to myself, and serving others . . . and serving Jesus.
