Wonder a lot about things and ask lots of questions in regards to God and this existence He has provided. Sharing my questions and answers about whatever doesn't relate to the coming Great Tribulation will be here.
So this morning I was thinking about the moment when I might be called upon to witness to those who would be in the position to kill me for my faith. Thinking about the moment that I would find myself in the presence of the Omniscient, Omnipotent, Omnipresent Father and His Son the words "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life" popped into my mind and I had to find it in my Bible. John 14:6.
After reading the chapter I wondered why we usually say "the Lord Jesus" but don't say "our King Jesus" or the King of Kings, or King Jesus. Are Americans so anti-King? possible. Might be from the revolutionary days.
I always read the whole chapter. Especially in church. John 14 is wonderful. It is where Jesus tells His disciples that He is leaving them and going to prepare a place for them with many mansions. Now is not the time for us to live in mansions. ( 2 Kings 5 Is
it a time to receive money and to receive clothes and olive groves and
vineyards and sheep and oxen and male and female servants? ) He promises to return for them. What Jesus says to His disciples is meant for all of His disciples and all who believe in God the Father. Jesus and God are each other (vs 10).
Yesterday I read some really good advice. I have it on my desktop now in red with a gold background.
"You leave out a critical
thinking…
You quit learning new things…
You fail to
be stretched…
You never
develop personally…
You quit asking questions…
You resist change…
You dismiss new ideas…
You stop
growing in your field of expertise…
You never
become an expert…
You fail to
allow God to work through you…
There is a huge difference in doing the best you know how to do and doing the
best YOU CAN DO. The best you can do is to continue to get better. The
times you are being stretched beyond what you know how to do may prove to be
the best times of your personal development."
