Hello again everyone!
Well this blog post is gonna be pretty much different from my previous blogs, simply because I want to talk about the Christian walk. Today, we live in a world full of chaos, disaster, troubles, trials, you name it. And it's because of this that we at times fear and stress. To sum it all up it's basically a world full of sin. For us Christians, it's extremely hard for us to go through the world of sin without God's help and guidance in our lives.
When Jesus was on this earth, He too, faced difficulties and challenges during his days here on earth. Jesus, Himself, needed God's guidance and direction in order to successfully complete his mission here on earth. So what did Jesus do to gain strength for the challenges ahead? If you look in Matthew 14:22-25 of the Bible, it says that after He dismissed the crowd, He went up to a mountainside to pray. He took time away from the issues He faced and went to a remote place where He could spend quality time with God....ALONE... That's the key aspect to the spiritual strength that Jesus needed to move on with life.
And by doing so, He also set an example for us today, that we should take time daily to spend time with God, one-on-one, away from worldly issues! By doing this we can find peace through the quiet assurance through God's presence. And that's definitely something that will definitely keep us going. So before Jesus comes again, let's get into the daily habit of spending time away from the worldly issues, and commune with God because it's through this and this alone that will solve our problems, our fears, and our stress with the world!
This is basically what I'll be teaching for Youth Sabbath School this Saturday! Apply this lesson to your daily lives! This is something I DEFINITELY need and I believe YOU need to!
God bless!
