Personal god

I was born and raised in a Christian family. By the grace of God, I responded to God’s invitation to have a personal relationship with God in my youth and committed myself to live as Jesus’ disciple for the rest of my life. At times, life had become unbearable difficult, but God enabled me to hold steadfast on God’s love and mercy, and consequently, I have experienced God who faithfully provides for His children and His love that transcends all understanding. I continually seek to deepen my relationship with Jesus Christ and place my trust in Him in my daily life. I can testify the work of the Holy Spirit in me which transforms my heart each day. The Word of God changes my perspectives, relationships, and attitudes and desires so that…

Hearing God “God spoke to me” are words that create unease in the most dedicated of Christians. “I sense that God is speaking to my heart” are also words that can give sincere faithful people a feeling of being second class believers if in all honesty they cannot say they have had such an experience. Others have had encounters that are unexplainable other than to turn to Moses’s encounter at the burning bush and Abraham’s visitation at Mount Moriah but have kept them private for fear of…

Our bodies, spirits, the spirits of the ages, Nature in all its manifestations, Incarnation of the One God, Source of All, revealed in Jesus, being brought to fulfillment in us. Red Destiny 2010 p045 October 1, 2010 Friday Already I am unable to give the one I could hope to this new chapter in my life quest for Cosmic Christ Consciousness (Never named it quite like that before.) But I must begin, at least by saying “Good morning” to the Essence within me. It is a new way of speaking and…

7eventh Time Down sings the song, God is on the Move. The words of the refrain, “God is on the move, on the move, Hallelujah. God is on the move, in many mighty ways” accurately reflects my life. God is definitely on the move and has been preparing me for this journey in the MOL program. Thinking about events in my life that contributed to my growth as a leader, several events come to mind. The first has to do with my calling into full-time ministry. Growing up I always planned to be a teacher…

expressed about the truth of purpose and existence. The culture of society’s mindset today is usually enveloped with the question, “What’s in it for me?” People today are more self-centered than they were many centuries ago during the Renaissance period when individuals were looking more inwardly and towards themselves rather than looking towards God, who is the Creator of both heaven and earth. For those with a Christian worldview, it is often known that “the earth is the Lords…

One claim that holds significance to the question, is belief in God rational, is the personal-relative argument. The personal-relative argument is important in the way that a person justifies their subjective thoughts, ideas, and experience in the belief or disbelief in God. It is not relativist thinking in that there is no truth to their experience, but an interconnected subjective truth that they try to make understandable through strong arguments. People want to make a cohesive worldview not…

Her belief in god is that he did this for a reason and he took her things as a sign. She believes that all of her things belonged to god anyways and he was just collecting them “it was his own, it was not mine” line 17. Her attitude was sad in the beggining but then she became positive when she started to think about why it happened. She needed something to fall back on because she has nothing and she is using religion as her fall back. She jumps from being positive to being sad she doesn't…

Who is God for you? Ever since I was young, I was taught to go to school and at the end of the night to pray to God. So that’s what I did; I tried my hardest to get good grades in school and pray to God at night. Both of my parents are Christians. In fact most, if not all, of my family are Christians. So I was raised in a Christian household. I’ve been going to a catholic school since first grade. Personally I don’t think my faith is as strong as I want it to be and I never noticed how low my…

the motto for our country is "In God We Trust", so maybe all those that are believers in God should stay and just do as they were instructed by Jesus to love and serve others as He showed them by His example and His love, but always keeping their hearts and minds on God and things above. The bible is pretty clear about Christians seeking the kingdom of God first, and to walk by faith not by sight. There are many scriptures that discuss God 's grace which was shown by Jesus laying down His…

Everyone has to believe in something. Even if you say I don’t believe in anything that is a belief. I believe in something that is widely accepted and unacceptable internationally. A topic that is debated around the world is the topic of a higher being of the spiritual world. Each superior being has different names for each culture. For my culture he is known as god. In this narrative I will explain that I believe in god and why. Some people don’t believe in god because they can’t see him.…
