Be BRAVE!!!



Being brave can be really hard at times.  But I hope by the time you are done reading this you will be braver in your daily lives.
 
   So let's get started!
           

   What makes people brave? 

   
   I don't really know how people are so brave. I mean everyone has fears right?  But are we suppose to fear anything?
 
   No! God tells us to fear nothing.  But how easy is it to not have any fears? Not very easy. Why? Because we are human.  When sin entered the world so did fear.
 
   But how can we be more brave? Don't let your fear take over your life.  People do things that scare them everyday.  You can be one of them too!
               

   How can we be brave?

 
   Let's answer that with another question. Why do you want to be brave?
 
   hmm. good question huh? Is it so people like us more? So we feel better about ourselves? So we can face Lions and Bears live David did?
   Well think about it David... do you think David was scared when the Lion and Bear came after him?
   Yeah he probably was. But did that stop him?
   No. Because he had God with him, and he knew that God would keep him safe. That's what we need to be like. Don't let your fears get in the way of living for God.

 
   I hope this helps you guys to BE BRAVE! If you have any questions ask away, comment below and I'll try to answer your questions the best I can.  And don't be afraid to comment or be the first one to comment.  I want to here from ALL OF YOU!
 
   Till next time

Living The Truth

   So today I decided I wanted to explain Live The Truth what it's about and why I chose this as my blog. Well to start, Live The Truth means living the truth.  Because we live in this crazy messed up world and we are called to share the good news.  We are called to tell people about Jesus.

   And I thought Live The Truth would be a good fit also because we are like a light switch, switching on and off our 'christian' for things of this world.  When we should be living our lives for God everyday and every second.  But we're not.

   A few weeks ago I was at my small group at church and we were talking about Faith and Deeds found in James 2:14-26.  And Live The Truth is kind of like that.  There are so many people that can say they 'know' Jesus but don't do anything about it.  There are also people at think if they are just good people and do things for people then they'll go to heaven.  

James 2:26 (NIV) As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.
   We have a balance of both.  Having a good relationship with God and going good works for His kingdom.

   I am hoping that through Live The Truth, you are learning and seeing different things about God and yourself.  What you need to change in your life.  What you need to work on.  What your gifts and strengths are.  Because that is what Live The Truth is all about.

   Comment below one (or more if you have more) thing('s) you've learned from Live The Truth.

   Till next time
