Grace...grace..what is grace~? y are some ppl encouraged while others stumble at this word~? bible says that now, we don't live under law, but under grace...oh yeah, thank God for it~! =) but what excatly is that grace~? ..does it mean we can continue sinning yet at the same time receive the grace of God in our lives and just carry on with our mistakes~? is this what it reallie means~?...
The answer is No!...definately not...i guess..y don't all of us Christians look at our walk with God as a relationship~? i mean..our friends..if we hurt them..naturally we'll wish tat yup, they'll give us a 2nd chance and continue to be friends with us too rite~? ya...isin't it the same~? with God, now, His grace enables God to overlook our past sins and mistakes so that He can continue to be in a relationship with us too! ..yup..but what happens after that~? if we continue making the same mistakes..our hearts will lack that sincerity and ya, no friend'll wanna forgive us no matter how much we say sorrie..cause ya, its just plain empty words too! its the same..if our sorry to God's just plain empty words..then no....God won't even wanna forgive us too! cause the bible says that our confession must be accompanied with repentance! ya~..and God's a searcher of hearts too..He knows whether we mean it or not..ya...haix..friends...don't compromise yr walk with God just because of this word Grace.......ya..God'll definately forgive us no matter how many times we make mistakes..yup..but the key's whether we reallie mean our sorries or not..whether we're determined to make things right the next time round...even though we may still fall the next time round..but God looks at the attitude..the heart! and ya, when He sees tat, His grace will come into our lives, not juz to forgive us...but to empower us to overcome that sin and foothold that satan has in our lives too! yaa!.....comfort and the peace of God's two totally different things! the peace of God reigns even through the storms in our lives...while comfort...simply makes us shy away from all the storms in our lives..yaa..and like tat we'll never grow up! never be a strong fighter and warrior for Christ too!...lets not be weak Christians anymore ba...rise up and fight ppl...we can definately do all things through Christ who strengthens us too!
To all my friends who believe in comfort rather than pressure..guys....what kinda christian do u wanna be?...someone who can take the nations for Christ or one that's powerless and ya..useless~??..come on..lets fight this fight of faith...for the sake of our friends...ya..we must continue to grow! ya...whew...k..got all of this off my mind too..ha...k..tat's all bout it for now..take care peeps..God bless~...
