We Are First

To all my brothers and sisters in Christ, we must live the life.  Don't think it to be strange that you find yourself being tried.  For those who live a Godly life shall face the hardness of life from those who live according to the deeds of the flesh. Even we our selves war against each other, because we yield our minds to things that are not of God.  We seem to have the hardest time receiving correction from each other.

We are going to first be judged.  It begins with us and we are the ones who suppose to set the standard.  Not the world.  For God ways are higher than the ways of man, and so is His thoughts.  We must strive to walk in the Spirit, we must walk by faith and not by sight. As we follow Christ let them follow us.

Remember whatever you are going through you are able to handle, because He said He would not put more on us than we can bare.  In this world there are those who do not fully understand that this life of Christ is not about religion, it is about relationship.  It is about gaining a full understanding of who Jesus is, and what He has done for us. Even those who don't believe, He still paid the price for them.  We must live the life before them, love them and understand that we were just as lost as they are.

The church which is us, must get right first, before we expect the people of this world to follow.  We must first love each other in the way that God require of us.  If the world see us acting no different than they are acting why should they stop.  We must return to doing His will, His way.  We have been bought with a price, we are no longer the owner of our lives.

Let us get right, and when they see that we are right, they will fellow.  Forgiveness and mercy will always catch us when we fall short.  We are striving day by day.  Learn to trust the Lord in all things, from small to great.  Even when you don't see it believe it as you pray for it.  Faith is the substance of things hope for the evidence of things not seen.  God will never fail.
