As Christians, I think many of us lose sight of what this life is about. We think this life is all about us. Arrogantly, we assume that if we live good lives, God will bless us. If I am good, God will give me a big house, a nice car, and a smokin’ hot spouse, right? Wrong. Christ has actually promised us trouble and persecution. In the words of Jesus, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33).
This world is not our home, and we must always remember that. If our focus is set upon our creator, we will have joy even in our trouble, for we know our reward is not of this world. When you see the rich person living the good life remember that for the unsaved, this world is the closest they will ever get to Heaven, but for us, the Christ follower, it is the closest we will get to Hell.
My goal in this blog is to help believers grow in their relationship with Christ, and to focus their lives on him. I'm not the smartest, or the most eloquent person, but I love the Lord. If he can use me in someway to help someone, then my efforts will be worth it.
If you have any questions about the Bible or living for Christ I would love to hear them. Like I said, I’m not the smartest, but I will do my very best to find you an answer from the Word. If you have any comments or questions shoot me an E-mail. driverbenjamin92@gmail.com
