God's Not Dead

Heyo,

Tonight we are watching an classic, God's Not Dead. This is not going to be a review of it, because right now I am too inspired. I don't want to work through the pro's and cons. I just want to remember how I feel about it right now. Inspired.

Not just of the importance of Genesis Creation, but the importance of standing up for God. Of using words and actions to tell people, the world that I believe in him. That I am on his side.

I, people in general don't hesitate to identify with shows, bands, books and anything that we like. Because we like it. How much more should I stand up and identify with God.

It is hard. This is  what makes a challenge. It is the day where you wake up late and then forget your Bible reading.  Then there are issues. There are always issues. Things that make me mad or sad and that is usually when I miss the opportunity to stand up for God, because I am to stuck in me and my issues or even stuck in others' issues.

And I run out of steam. To defend, to be patient or something.  I keep my conscious my ignoring the opportunities.

Doing nothing isn't making anything go away...it just means I lose, God loses, because I am weak and didn't rely on his strength.

Luke 12: 47-48
"And that servant who knew his master's will, and did not prepare himself or do according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he who did not know, yet committed things deserving of stripes, shall be beaten with few. For everyone to whom much is given, much will be required; and to whom much has been committed, of him they will ask the more."

God has given me much. I am so thankful to have a Bible, Christian friends, family, and freedom to learn more. Therefore much is required.

And ignoring the standard doesn't make it go away.

Keep going,
