'O, Taste and See that the Lord is Good.'

I love the Lord.  I love the Bible.  It is so deep that every day you can dive in to it, and yet never touch the bottom!

I'm not a preachy person (I hope not), but to not share the goodness of God is truly a sin!

I think about my non-believing friends and family... some may have tried to serve the Lord before, but some have never even tried!  How can you know how it feels if you've never tried?...

I have tried living to self.  It's a dark, meaningless, empty, and guilt-ridden life.  I've never pretended to be something I'm not.  Maybe I should have and I wouldn't have gotten into some of the troubles I've been in!

Life is so complex, but there is one thing that's certain - death.  We are not immortal.  Atheism says there isn't an after-life.  Some religions believe in reincarnation (isn't this just more of the same?).  Still others believe in earthly rewards in heaven - people becoming gods for doing "good deeds" on earth (like killing and harassing people)! 

I believe we will be as children of God, like the angels, if we simply commit our hearts and lives to God through His Son - Jesus Christ.  This belief has been around since the beginning of recorded history, folks have tried to eradicate it, and yet it sill remains!

"Give 'peace' a chance?"  No, thanks; try Jesus! :-)

  1. Well said by a true PK (preacher's kid)! JK! If everyone could feel the way one does when your heart gives over to salvation, no one would ever trade that in. And if they did trade it in, it would leave an empty, gaping hole!
