More, more about Jesus!!!

"That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable unto His death."(Philippians 3:10)

I enjoy reading biographies and autobiographies.  In fact, I have a bookshelf at home that has nothing on it but such works.  I have found in reading many of these books that the individuals being written about are either built up by their attributes and various contributions to society or are depicted in a lesser light by their failures, heartbreaks and disappointments.  This goes on to prove that the human condition is fragile at best.  Over the years, I have found one individual who has been written about more than any other.  That is none other than our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  His Word, the Bible is the perfect treasure of information regarding Him.  I plan on reading a few of my other biographies from time to time, but none of these will ever take precedence again over my study of "The Life that would shed His blood" for the sins of the world.  Lets learn more about Jesus this year.  Read about Him in His Book, the worlds best seller - The Bible.

God's Path for Us!!!

"Trust in The Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways adknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."(Proverbs 3:5-6)

Another year is here.  What will this year hold in store for each of us?  Only God knows!  In the Bible we can find the wisdom of God.  We must trust Him and not our intellect to guide us in this new year.  No doubt we will be given new opportunities, and face new issues and difficulties as we begin this journey of faith.  But with each new circumstance and situation we face, we can be encouraged by the fact that an all knowing God is directing our paths.  Afterall He is ordering our steps.  This could be the year when Jesus comes.  In the meantime, lets all rededicate our lives to The Lord and utilize every precious moment for the furtherance of the gospel.
