Proclaim who you are In Christ (240 hits)


Many tend to wonder what there purpose is in life. If you bought a Honda, accord and something went wrong with the car you wouldn't go to a Ford, mustang manufacturer and ask them to fix the problem. It's the same way in the world. You can't follow the dreams of your best friend and sometimes you can't even follow your own dreams for they may not be in the "Perfect" will of God. There is a difference between the Perfect will of God and the Permissive will of God. It's quite simple really; the permissive will of God is what he allows you to do because it will help his people enter into the kingdom. The Perfect will of God is the submission of yourself to God so that he may help you discover your purpose and cause to to be blessed in the process. So why go through trials and excercises when you can simply ask God what your purpose may be? If you can not decipher a response God it is most likely that your heart isn't pure (another topic). Keep asking and while you're at it, ask him to forgive you of your sins. It's natural. I sometimes find I can not hear from God and I have to ask him to cleans and purify my heart... LOL. Then there are other times where I have to tell my mind to shut up and listen. Thinking too much puts stress on the brain anyway. Try listening to worship music to calm your spirit. It is important you know who you are because if you don't you'll end up simply megerly existing and following the crowd. Know who you are, because the hardest thing to be in life is... yourself...

I truely agree to everything you are saying except when it comes to part about it's hard being yourself, To me it is the easiest thing to do by being yourself . I have a problem with trying to be someone else. I seen a lot of role playing in my life and to me it's much simpler to just be me, that way I don't have to put on aires and pretend that I'm someone that I'm not. It is so much easier to simply be you, so people can except you for exactly who you are. LadyFaye

"... truely" instead of "... truly"?
"I seen ..." instead of "I've seen ..."?
"... except you ..." instead of "... accept you"?

"LadyFaye" posting as "Benny Douglas"?

Chick, I'm confused. Sorry.
