Jesus the life- giver

"The thief comes to steal kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life and have it to the full." John 10:10. The definition of steal; is to take (the property of another or others) without permission or right, especially secretly or by force. In my life I was corrected and that correction stung like a bee. It was horrible to think I was doing wrong by God. It tore me up inside and bleed onto the outside. I got on the floor and cried my eyes out and was making progress. I repented and was reading the bible... etc. "The rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother." The correction was suppose to correct me and help me, but instead I let satan use it to his advantage. Instead of letting the correction push me closer to God I did the opposite. Proverbs 29:15 "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness," 2 Timothy 3:16 I don't know when it happened, but I found myself in a rut. "The definition of kill;to deprive of life in any manner; cause the death of; slay. 2. to destroy; do away with; extinguish: to destroy or neutralize the active qualities of:" I slowly stopped doing God's will, became bitter, angry,and resentful. "The definition of destroy;  to reduce (an object) to useless fragments, a useless form, or remains, as by rending, burning, or dissolving; injure beyond repair or renewal; demolish; ruin; annihilate. 2. to put an end to; extinguish. 3. to kill; slay. 4. to render ineffective or useless; nullify; neutralize; invalidate. 5. to defeat completely." I was a walking zombie. Wrapped up in my mess and didn't care about anybody else's, always feeling sorry for myself. But NO, not anymore I refuse to let satan win. I serve a good God who has a good heart. Now let's talk about the end of that verse, " I have come that they may have life and have it to the full." Jesus came and made me alive, He has brought me back to life. He cares for you and I, and He doesn't stop where we stop. No God keeps going and finishes the work He started. "Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ." Philippians 1:6. His mercies are new everyday and His love never fails. "This happened because Abraham believed in the God who brings the dead back to life and who creates new things out of nothing." Romans 4:17.

I do enough?..

If you're anything like me you read the Bible, you capitalize words like Bible, God, Holy Spirit etc., you never say the wrong thing. I do what God ask me to do most of the time and get mad when He tells me to try harder or corrects me. Inside I know I should be trying harder, but. But is the exact problem. I've heard but zeros out everything said before the but. Like, "I love you, but.." the I love you doesn't matter anymore because you attached a but to it. I live for God, think good about Him most of the time, I should be giving Him my all, but.... But I don't want to make myself more uncomfortable, I don't want to have to do more for God because I already do enough for Him. That's enough buts! I'm done with buts. I don't want to bring excuse after excuse to God. First of all God is God, knower of all things, seer of all things, creator of all things. ALL THINGS. Even a glimpse of Him would make us melt, literally. He is my Father and I don't want to miss out on anything He has for me. I'm bloggin this because I dont want to be content! I want to want more of God, I want to love God with every fiber that is within me, I want my heart to cry out for God while I'm sleeping. I want to want God. I don't want to be good enough anymore I want to be so in love with God that my stomach fills with butterflies whenever His name is mentioned. I want to be whole heartedly, devoted, earnestly to my God. No but's about it.

Here we Are!

Hello to everyone and welcome to our blog! Here we will post insights God has given us, news about the club itself, and anything else that we feel like posting.

Now on to important things like our first meeting! (yahy!)

We had our first meeting last Friday (the 23rd of March). We had 8 people show up and sign up as new members with more promising to come next time. It was AWESOME! God moved greatly in leading one of our new members to share her awesome testimony and he spoke through a number of members as well. It was an amazing first meeting and we can not wait to see where God takes us next!

We can't wait to form new relationships with each other and begin to have outings and times of fellowship to grow closer together!

This blog is run by three people; The President of the Faith Club- Samantha, the Vice president- Matina, and the sponsor- Ms. Tuesday we will each choose a pen name to blog under and use that regularly :) In the first post by each of us we will announce our pen-name.
