Is Sinning A Normal Habit?

Hi, my name is Rebecca and I wanted to talk to you guys about sinning. We've all heard that Christians shouldn't sin because it doesn't pleases our heavenly father in heaven but we tend to do it anyway but not on purpose because we get angry sometimes which causes us to sin but that shouldn't be an excuse for us. There are different ways that we sin and those are talking back to our parents, lying, doesn't matter if it's one of your friends or classmates, insulting others, cursing at one another, and many more that are too much to list. Do we mean to sin? NO! Sinning just happens out of nowhere that when we actually commit it we feel awful because as Christians we know that our heavenly father isn't pleased with our actions. We wish that we can take back everything that we've said that had hurt one another or wish we shouldn't have committed our sinful actions but the thing is Jesus died on the cross to take away our past, present, and future sins. 1 John 1:9- "if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness". I know we weren't present when the soldiers whipped Jesus until his back bleed, slapped him across the face, and made him carry his own heavy cross even though he was weak but we know and believed that it happened because if it hadn't happened then there is no way that sinful people could be loved by Jesus or that we could ever get a chance to live with him in paradise because our sins would just get in the way. Luke 7- "Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, thus she loved much; bit the one who is forgiven little loves little". This verse tells us that when we love others even those who prosecute us and have hatred for us, our sins that we didn't mean to commit are forgiven because god sees our hearts and will forgive us for our good deeds which will be rewarded in heaven. Remember, sinning is not okay and I know that sometimes it just happens and we wish that we could take it back but Jesus will always be faithful to forgive you because he loves you so much up to the point that he died for you. I am not a perfect human being but my heavenly father still loves me anyway by dying for me and he loves you as well. Don't run away from that sweet love that he has for you. Jesus took the punishment in your place so that you wouldn't have to be punished for your sins. Don't make sinning a normal habit for you and if you do sin once in a while always remember to repent because HE WILL FORGIVE YOU! He loves you! You were created in his image and nothing and no one can ever change that!

Your sister in Christ,

What Does It Mean To Be a Christ Follower

To start of, I grew up in a Christian home and was raised by my parents who taught me to always put god first in my life because without him my life is meaningless. When I was a child my mom bought me a kids Bible with pictures on the other side of the page so that I can imagine what was happening through the pictures. The day that I truly understood what Christ did for me on the cross was the day that I truly surrendered my life to Christ because I wanted to be a part of his family and I wanted to live for him until the day that he calls me home. Being a Christ follower taught me to always put god first in my life no matter what because He's the only one who can save me and make all my problems go away. After I had finished my freshmen year of high school, I decided that I wanted to get baptized. Getting baptized was my decision because when my pastor announced it to the church I decided that I wanted to sign up to get baptized. Before getting baptized, my pastor approached me and

What If Your Blessings Come Through Tears

Hi sweet people:) As you all may already know I am a college student at Mississippi State University so I haven't had the time to blog but today I am so glad that I do  because I want to share with you guys today what God has been doing in my life lately. As you may see the title for this post is called, "What if Your Blessing Comes Through Tears" and I got this title from one of my favorite songs that I like to listen to. In this life that we're living we tend to go through some hard times that we tend to question God love towards us his own children. Some of the questions that we tend to ask him is, "why can't you may all of the pain go away"? "Why are you letting me suffer like this if you truly love me"? These questions are one of the most hardest things that we want God to answer but I know that if something happens it's because God wants to show us something to open our eyes clearly or he just wants to test our faith towards him.

A Christmas Post

Don't Forget Jesus Christmas is a special time To reflect on Jesus Christ, The wonder of His lowly birth Brings meaning to our lives There really is no other reason, We celebrate this day, The birth of God's precious son And the life, He willingly gave But so much seems to distract us In the busyness of our lives, We lose our focus in all the happenings, Not knowing, we leave out Christ We lose sight of the true meaning As we endlessly rush about, Trying to find that perfect gift, Seems to cloud our Saviour out We need to stop and reflect awhile, Remembering our precious Lord, His birth, His life and sacrifice And all that He stands for For though the world may celebrate, It seems, though, for other reasons, Let's keep in mind that Jesus Christ Is the true meaning of the season.
