Just attended the fall concert. Good job by the choir, praise band/musicians and dance team. K…Teee…Beeeeee….Ceeeee…!!!
Very nice and a great and timely blessing for my heart. The message today was about whether or not you are an intellectual atheist (someone who believes in God) or a practical atheist(believes there is God yet lives their life as if there was’nt).
I find myself reflecting on that last definition a lot. Being a Christian is not easy. It is an everyday battle, and a battle where there seems to be so many defeat.
My spirit is strong, and it is not broken. For I know that God is with me. And I know that God loves me. He is my strength and my deliverer.
In the times where I lose my battle with sin, one question that pops in my head is this:
why do I do the things I do?
As always, I realize that man indeed is HELPLESS without God. And I know this to be true in my life.
