Catching Up

It has been about a while since I posted anything.  It is incredible how busy a week can get.  I thank God that it was filled with good events and things.
There were also moments and situations where I had to keep adjusting, and making changes and choosing to keep focusing on God and His truth. This is something that myself and all out there need to realize: this being a Christian and disciple of Christ, is a journey, not a destination or goal.  Changes, challenges and all else will be on going.  This is one of the biggest truth I have been learning as I rediscover God.
Seeing Christianity as a goal to be accomplished, or a lifestyle to master and maintain is swallowing one of Satan's biggest lie.  When we became His children, it was sealed as far as He is concerned.  We began this journey in our decision to walk in obedience to Him.  Everyday and every life situation we learn more of who God is if we keep our hearts open to Him, and as He keeps molding us into who He wants us to be.  He will keep His word and promise.  Will we stay true to walking with Him even when it doesn't make sense, or is beyond painful?
Matthew 11:29 says, Jesus speaking: "Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls."  This right there sums up what Christ had and has in mind when He made us children of God (we became His children when we confess our sins, repented of our sins, receive God's forgiveness by faith, believing in Christ).  Let us always remember this and live our lives according to this scripture truth.
