bringing people to Christianity
God placed this on my heart so I want to share:
When I was younger I first became a Christian because I didn't want to go to hell. My faith was purely based on not wanting to go to hell so I would try hard not to sin that way I would go to heaven. However, that is such a watered-down version of why we should have faith. As I grew older I felt God was calling me to reexamine my faith and become close to Him. Over the past 2ish years I have grown so much because instead of being Christian simply to not go to hell my faith was built on my relationship with God. He is the friend, parent, and just love that I have always searched for and wanted. He is the true embodiment of love. If you are wondering why you should be a Christian it is because at your lowest moments, where you feel most broken, underserving, lost, etc. the answer is Christ. HE LOVES YOU, not in a cheesy way but in a way where he died for you to save you from yourself. He wants to show you His love, and he provides peace. It is in a relationship with Him that even though I worry, and feel burdened, I can still have peace because of his presence in my life.
I just pray that anyone reading this accepts Jesus Lord and seeks a relationship with Him. I pray they do not get caught up in the "aesthetics" and try to be "that Christian girl" or the perfect person so that they don't go to hell, but instead I pray they seek you so that they can feel your love so that they can feel your breath of life into their own lungs. I pray that all who read this find you, so that they can encounter the peace, and love I have in following and getting closer to you. Jesus is what you have been seeking. Amen.

Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭9‬-‭13‬ ‭LSB
Let love be without hypocrisy—by abhorring what is evil, clinging to what is good...
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭8‬:‭13‬ ‭NASB1995
The fear of the Lord is to hate evil;
Pride and arrogance and the evil way
And the perverted mouth, I hate.
Psalm 5‬:‭4‬-‭5‬ ‭LSB‬‬
For You are not a God who delights in wickedness;
Evil does not sojourn with You.
The boastful shall not stand before Your eyes;
You hate all workers of iniquity.
‭‭1 John‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬-‭10‬ ‭LSB
And this is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not do the truth; but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.

Jesus is and has always been the most hated, mocked and bullied person to ever walk the Earth. Yet, he remains the most loving, selfless and forgiving. 🥺😔

La respuesta de Dios muchas veces no corresponde a nuestra gran elocuencia o formas a la hora de pedir.
El Señor solo espera escuchar de nuestros labios un sencillo:
"Señor ayudame en este situación"
Cuando nuestra oración brota de un corazón verdaderamente afligido y necesitado no tenemos necesidad de usar muchas palabras.

“Joseph, son of David,
do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home.
For it is through the Holy Spirit
that this child has been conceived in her.
She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus,
because he will save his people from their sins.”

Conversas com Jesus…
Já experimentou conversar com Jesus através de cartas? Esse é o momento. Jesus ama surpresas e ama a sua amizade. Jesus ama caminhar contigo e saber com foi seu dia. Faça como Paulo que orientando as igrejas com os ensinamentos de seu professor, que por incrível que pareça foi o Messias, escreveu cartas as igrejas com palavras de amor, renovo e avivamento de espírito. Use essa ferramenta para se comunicar com o noivo mais belo a quem nós estamos esperando.
Comece hoje um relacionamento com Jesus de forma diferente.
Jesus sente saudades de ser surpreendido pela sua paixão por Ele. Não se acanhe, é a melhor forma de expressão.

Jesus does not content Himself with a place beside other teachers, saying, “I will give you light,” but affirms that the light is inseparable from His own person. “I am the light.” By this He means, as already observed, that it is by receiving Him as our life that we have light. But His words also mean that He imparts this light not by oral teaching, but by being what He is, and living as He does. Teaching by word and precept is well, when nothing better can be had; but it is the Word made flesh that commands the attention of all. This is a language universally intelligible. [Christ's Life,] the highest conceivable, on almost the lowest conceivable stage, and recorded in the simplest form, with indifference to all outward accompaniments attractive whether to the few or to the many, is set before us as the final and unalterable ideal of human life, amid all its continual and astonishing changes. It is by this life led here on earth He becomes our Light. It is by His faith maintained in the utmost of trial; His calmness and hopefulness amidst all that shrouds human life in darkness; His constant persuasion that God is in this world, present, loving, and working. It is by His habitual attitude towards this life, and towards the unseen, that we receive light to guide us. In His calmness we take refuge from our own dismay. In His hopefulness we refresh ourselves in every time of weariness. In His confidence our timorous anxieties are rebuked. Upon the darkest parts of our life there falls from Him some clear ray that brightens and directs. Thousands of His followers, in every age, have verified His words: “I am the light of the world: he that followeth Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” And as the Teacher taught by living so must the scholar learn by living. Christ brings light by passing through all human experiences and situations, and “he that followeth” Him, not he that reads about Him, “shall have the light of life.” There are very few men in the world who can think to much purpose on truths so abstruse and complicated as the Divinity of Christ and the Atonement and Miracles; but there is no man so dull as not to see the difference between Christ’s life and His own. Few men may be able to explain satisfactorily the relation Christ holds to God on the one hand and to us on the other; but every man who knows Christ at all even as he knows his friend or his father, is conscious that a new light falls upon sin of all kinds, upon sins of appetite and sins of temper and sins of disposition, since Christ lived. It is in this light Christ would have us walk, and if we follow as He leads on, we shall never lack the light of life. We need not be seriously disturbed about the darkness that hangs round the horizon if light falls on our own path; we need not be disturbed by our ignorance of many Divine and human things, nor by our inability to answer many questions which may be put to us, and which indeed we naturally put to ourselves, so long only as we are sure we are living so as to please and satisfy Christ. If our life runs on the lines His life marked out, we shall certainly arrive where He now is, in the happiest and highest human condition.

The Devil's goal is to kill you. God's goal is to save you & give you life.
My God says I am
Romans 15:7 | You are accepted
John 15:16 | You are chosen
Galatians 4:7 | You are free
1 John 1:9 | You are forgiven
2 Corinthians 5:17 | You are a new person
John 1:12 | You are a child of God
Genesis 1:27 | You are made in God’s image
1 Corinthians 3:23 | You belong to Jesus
Romans 6:4 | Jesus offers you a new life
The Devil doesn't want you to love God because in loving God you are being renewed and you are defeating death. You are defeating his missions and goals. Christianity is great because it offers you new life in Christ. A life that is pure, not easy, but pure. Full of love and hope and even in the midst of suffering you still have Jesus there to carry you.

Acts‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬-‭15‬ ‭LSB‬‬
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you delivered and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release Him. But you denied the Holy and Righteous One and asked for a murderer to be granted to you, but put to death the Author of life, whom God raised from the dead, a fact to which we are witnesses.
‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭14‬ ‭LSB‬‬
And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭1‬:‭30‬-‭31‬ ‭LSB‬‬
But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption, so that, just as it is written, “Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord.”

why choose God? because even when we are at the end of our rope, God saves us. when we have nowhere else to run, He is there for us with open arms. God has never, and will never abandon us. it is we who choose to run from his grace. he is RIGHT there. even in the midst of our depression, he bends down from heaven to hold us when we break.
