"Don't waste your Life away" Our new family theme!

Okay so it has been a while since I blogged and lots have been going on in my life!
Especially in my spiritual walk! Let me start from the beginning...I became a believer a follower of Jesus Christ in 1995 and right after that my life changed dramatically. I have wanted to live for the Lord and be used by him to bring others to him from day one. The problem was that I started to depend on men and what they consider was a Christ-centered person to live for the Lord. I have to say that for the last 15 years I have learned so much about the church and the people that go to church.

Last year my faith was challenged and for the first time in my life I decided to shut down all of the voices and allowed the Lord to guide my path. What a shocker you might say but what I have learned is that many Christians follow mans rules and not the Bible.

This year I have grown so much in the Word. I am in a church that have taught me how to study God's word in depth. We our family as a whole have been stripping all of these layers and are learning to expose ourselves to the TRUTH and live a life with Purpose and Meaning even if it is Not popular with many.

How sad it is that so many are not walking a life that one day they will look back and know it was not wasted!

We are enjoying time in the Word as a family and sharing so much with each other!
Our new theme is from a book by John Piper "Don't waste your Life away" and our song is "The Motions" by Mathew West!

We our family have made a commitment to live our life with PURPOSE and PASSION and to build treasures in Heaven and not on earth where it is a vapor.

Quotes to ponder:
"When God strips everything away we are left with God"
"Things ( stuff) are attached to a life that is vapor"
" Life goes God doesn't"
" Our blessing is God not things"

I pray this make you think and put things into perspective! I know it has for us and we are seeking a life that glorifies our Lord and not the people!

Today I heard a sermon from a pastor who said that Jesus was not popular so when we are liked and accepted by many we need to check ourselves and make sure we are walking with God and not with PEOPLE!

Thank you for reading my post and may you live for Christ in all you do DAILY!

Blessed much Jessie
