BACK TO DOING WHAT I SHOULD BE DOING
Hi, all! I’m super sorry again for the delay in posting… Lord, I truly admit all of my sins, I truly confess all of my sins, and I truly repent of all my sins. Thank You, Lord!! Thank You for every single thing. Please go ahead and spend time with God and pray before reading or interacting with this post. So, this post that I’ll be posting is new and the most recent I’ve written, but the three posts that I’ll be posting after this were made and written mid May 2025. That won’t ever happen again. So, for this post, I’m just going to be saying and writing what I’ve learned and where I’m at. So the posts that you’ll later see and interact with, I’ll be saying I’m currently reading in Matthew in the Bible, but right now (end of May 2025) I’m on the part of the Bible of Luke past Chapter 5. I’ve learned that I and others are blessed that we even have a Bible, and are able to worship conveniently where we are. I realized and got reminded that there are people around the world who are way more persecuted for their faith, and some don’t even have a Bible (yet) as of now. I want to help them, and I pray that they keep going on and being strong. I pray that they are doing well, and that they continue having a relationship with the Lord. I pray you all are doing great as well, and that you all also continue to have a closer relationship with God. I recently stopped eating desserts that are not vegan, and well, for the past some months, when it comes to drinks, I’ve been only drinking water and almond milk for the most part. I really need to start exercising again since in the Bible it’s good to take care of our bodies or what I’m saying is just an implication, (now this part is really in the Bible): as it is the temple for the Holy Ghost (or in modern translations, the Holy Spirit). It brings me great joy whenever I think of God (and I do try to think about Him all the time, though sometimes I can get side tracked, but I’ve been praying that the Lord always be in my mind, and I pray that I continue to stay on the right path).
I’m going to be extremely transparent with you in this section. Tell your testimony and don’t be afraid to explain what has happened in your life; it may help inspire others and will help other people continue to know how good God is and what things He has already done, is doing, and continues to do in other peoples’ lives. God will guide you on making the right decisions once you’re truly a Christian. Whenever I say “once you’re truly a Christian”, I don’t mean to say that in a discriminating way or anything, I’m sorry if it seems like that:in fact I mean that in the way that there are some who still haven’t given their whole life yet to God, and that is the most important decision and part of someone’s life, a person’s life, so I don’t want to assume anything, since anyone is welcome and free to read or interact or come across this post. When I was younger, I considered myself a Christian, but I was boy crazy, so instead of focusing solely on God, I was focusing on a person who I had a crush on, and the next when the other crush rejected me. That was bad of me, I wasn’t living for the Lord, I wasn’t doing His will, I was just focusing on what I wanted to do and what made me happy, which was extremely sinful, horrible, shameful, bad, and selfish. I would have accomplished a lot of things had I been focused on God and not on worldly things and worldly pleasures. I wanted to scold my past self hard for wasting her life and being focused on the wrong things, but I can’t do that since of course can’t go back to the past. I can only focus on the present, get closer to God, and focus on Him fully like I should have been doing the entire time, from the very beginning. I wished that I could have been a lot more different in the past (the exact opposite of my past self, so a true Christian) but like as the Bible says, don’t worry about the future or tomorrow and focus on the present, not the past (or the future / tomorrow). I definitely need to get off my bed unless I’m sleeping for the night which I’m going to start today, the day that I’ll post this. God is so good. He has common grace for all people, whether they have given up to their lives to Him, or not. I pray that more people become (true) Christians and get to know God more. I really need to do better to focus on God, and I’ll really try to do the best I possibly can. With God nothing is unpossible.
I’m sorry if it seems like I’m rambling: I’m trying my best to think of what’s important to put. Oh, also for a week or so, I’ve just been listening to worship songs / Christian songs and no longer listening to secular music (which I should have been doing since I started purposely listening to music). So many worldly things can influence, and so we need to be careful and intentional on what we do, say, and think about. For me, I can get easily distracted and focus on bad things, so I really need to be extra careful and cautious with what I’m doing and such and be intentional. I really need to work on myself. I don’t know if I already said this before, but I think I already did though I’ll say it again. There’s no such thing as being too obsessed with God. There’s such a thing though as being not too or not enough obsessed with God. Like I will say with my later posts, a person is either hot, cold, or lukewarm (though in my post that I will share / post later on, I said white, black, or in the middle, as I had forgotten at first the original terms, which were the hot, cold, or lukewarm). We have to really immerse ourselves and show with all of our being that we’re true Christians. I remember hearing a relative say that in her church, there used to be so many people that it was filled. However, when the pastor started delving further and went through topics saying something like they needed to live a life that is Godly and not stay the same as they were before they were Christians, and should be the salt of the earth, and not just do what they want, that’s when a lot / the majority of people left, because they wanted to live how they wanted to (the same as before they considered themselves Christians, I’m guessing based on what was said to me), and didn’t like that the pastor said they all needed to live in a way that shows that they are the salt or the light (something about those). We have to be true followers of Christ, faithful and good servants. I was also thinking that I should include this too, but a little while ago, I realized that I’m no longer afraid of death and should not have been afraid. There are people who have died for their faith, and so who was I before to have even been a little afraid of death? Once a true Christian dies, after, he or she will eventually be with God: what is better than that? Nothing at all. And of course, I’m not saying dying purposely is good, to reiterate: it’s bad. The Lord put each and every one one of us on this earth for a greater purpose. By dying or passing away I meant from illness, from an accident, from doing a good deed (e.g. / for example, risking their life to help save someone or spreading the Gospel / evangelizing in a super dangerous place), natural ways of dying, etc. I have a post about how to focus on God that I will post later. If you find someone whether it be on the internet, in real life, basically in all situations, where they are doing things that are not Godly or they’re sinning, pray for them. That’s very important to do. In fact, just in general in addition, pray for people. I realized also that when evangelizing, although we’re involved and are assisting in spreading the Gospel, the One who’s truly doing the work and changing people is and has always been God. He’s so good!!!!!!!!!!! A huge thanks to the Lord!!! I know this is a little of another topic, but I heard recently about / was taught about how if you’re praying for someone to heal, and they die or pass away, then praise God. If they get healed and continue living, praise God. God hears our prayers, but it’s His choice what will happen. He will either heal them so that they keep living, or He will bring them home (if they’re a true Christian) which is peaceful to think, as they’re going to be with the Lord. God is good, Holy, kind hearted, righteous, and so on. No one can truly describe just how amazing He is. He is too great and our understanding is too limited to understand Him even far to halfway. GOD bless you all. Focus on the things above!
