Living Proof Live (part 3)

# 5. We can revel in the certainty of the things we have been taught. – Our faith is based on fact. There is proof that Jesus came to earth, lived here, and overcame the grave. This is not just some fairy tale story to tell your kids. It really happened, it is true. But, if you don’t believe me, try proving that it didn’t happen. Many have tried to, and failed. I have heard stories of college professors, or students trying to prove that God never existed and they can’t. There is too much evidence pointing to the fact that he does exist and is present in our everyday life. It’s really sad that many people believe that God created the world, wound it up like a clock and left us on our own. He is present in every part of our lives. Everything that we have been taught from the Bible about God, is true. It is really the only absolute truth that we have in this life.

# 6. Jesus has passed us the salt also. – Salt is used for many things: to clean the body (Ezekiel 16:4), to season or preserve food (Job 6:6), to give flavour.  As Christians we are not called to be boring and bland. We are called to be the flavour of the world! We need to become the flavour of Christ and show the world that He tastes Good! Matthew 5:13 “ You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses it’s saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.” Let’s continue to be salty and set an example for the people of this world. Let us show them how good life tastes when you live for the King!

 

I have 1 more point to share with you and my hope is to share it with you before the end of this week. If anything that I have written has really struck you and you would like to share, I would love to hear from you!

Have a great day!

My favourite room in my house

Anyone who knows me personally can agree when I say that my favourite room in my house is my kitchen.                     Not because it’s fancy, which, it’s not.    Not because it’s clean & tidy, which it most often, is not.  Most definitely not because of the great view out my window, which is my neighbours garage. But because that’s the place where I get to create! That is the place where all the ‘magic’ happens. That’s the place where I go from ‘mom’ to ‘magician’ and I can just let my imagination run free! I LOVE,LOVE, LOVE to bake (this is not an exaggeration).  What I also love, is a baking challenge. I have a few friends with restricted diets and I have had the opportunity to bake for them. I have friends that can’t have sugar or dairy and only certain kinds of flour.  This was quite a challenge for me in the beginning, but I have done a lot o...

Two Words.

Test everything. These 2 words have played over and over in my mind lately. I knew that there is a verse that says this, but I didn’t remember where to find it, so last night I asked my husband. He, for some reason can find everything for me. He found it in 1Thessalonians 5:21 “Test everything. Hold on to the good.” What exactly does that mean? What I have found lately, is that this applies to ALL things in All areas. Especially those concerning Christianity and the Truth. These days, you can’t just walk into a church and assume that what you hear the pastor say is true. To do that can be very dangerous.  What I understand from this verse is that we are supposed to test everything against the Word of God and hold on to the Truth only. Take your Bible to church with you, check what the pastor is speaking against the Word. We need to make sure that what we are being taught is God’s truth. Everything that your church practices and teaches should be in your Bible. I’m so very thankf...

Lets see how this goes...

Well, I've just started my blog and seeing as how I'm new at this it might take me a few tries before I get the hang of it.    At the end of January my husband and & I decided it was time to add another member to our family.No we were not thinking of having another baby as we already have 2 kids and a dog I have enough to keep me busy. We decided to sponsor a child. This decision involved alot of research into different organizations until we finally settled on Compassion. The reason we picked Compassion was because it takes care of all the other needs of the child but the most important one is that they focus on the teaching of Christ.They work within the local christian church and all the children that are in the Compassion program go to sunday school and are taught about Jesus. This was the most important thing to us.       So, now that we have the organization how do you choose which child? They all need help. I'm a terrible decision maker as...
