~Got Jesus?~

Now if there is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them? And as for us, why do we endanger ourselves every hour? I die every day – I mean that, brothers – just as surely as I glory over you in Christ Jesus our Lord. If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus for merely human reasons, what have I gained? If the dead are not raised, “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.” Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.” Come back to your sense as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God – I say this to your shame.

1 Corinthians 15:29-34

If there is no God. If we do not believe, then it shows us very clearly how we would spend our time. “…eat and drink, for tomorrow we die..” If the only things we seek are fun, partying, celebrations and such, then we are veering from the path Jesus walked before us. The bible speaks truth, if only we would seek it out. This is followed by a stern word of guidance. Take it to heart that who you hang out with will mold and shape you. I can attest to that fact. Paul finishes off with a rebuke. “…for there are some who are ignorant of God..” Seek out God. Learn who God is. From this relationship, comes many blessings both visible and invisible. God is always here. Always watching, waiting. I’ll leave you with one of my favorite verses… Have a good day/evening/morning… ^_^

He has showed you, O man, what is good.
   And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
   and to walk humbly with your God.

Micah 6:8

~- Prayers -~

God, PL needs some guidance in his life. He thinks that perhaps his life may be used in a certain church, in a certain position. You know what I’m talking about. Lord, I pray that you will speak to him and if this is the right place for him, I pray that you will give him strength and guidance for this position. God, you are the pilot. Fly the plane~

I pray all this in name of Him upon whom our hopes are placed, ~Amen~
