One of my lecturers today made a statement that really got me thinking:
"Most of the problems [in this world] come from not seeing ourselves how God sees us."
I think there is definatly some weight to the statement but I spose it just hits home a bit. If I truly thought of myself as God sees me, or treated and looked at others how God sees them... would I live anything like I do now??.... just something to get you thinking....
Been learning recently that now matter how content I feel, no matter how much I feel I have grown, challenges are still going to be thrown my way and I still have to work on my relationship with God. But also I am not discouraged by this, its like a marathon- the more I can live through the stronger I'll get and the easier it'll be. It appeals to my competetive side hehe.
anyways I was going to talk about these more but I must sleep. until next time...

Love hearing your thoughts Sar. Here's one to add to them...
ReplyDelete"Most of our problems come from us not knowing the Father God the way Jesus knew him." I mean think about it, if we were able to trust and know the Father the way Jesus did, what could possibly stop us? He relied totally on the Father's love and the Spirit's leading in all aspects of life. We forget God is there, but he asked the question, "How can man forget God?"
If we knew God's presence with us in this way, we would be inspired to make it through the rough parts - even to the point of death.
And how do we get this knowledge? Well I'm starting with getting to know everything I can about the man Jesus! Prayin the same for you girl. Good on ya - love your enthusiasm and grit!
