Your grace is greater than my need

mum took out her packs of balloon and pump today after they were collecting dust for awhile. naturally, i wanted a green sword. killed bekah with it.

she made so many animals. house like colourful zoo. if they all burst together i'm gonna get a heart attack.

being a Christian these days is the in thing. why not? you make a big group of Christian friends, you get to hang out at fun gatherings, rallies, you listen to cool Christian bands. being ashamed is a thing of the past.

as teenagers, sometimes being a Christian becomes more of a tool for social benefit.

when this is done, you realise they don't have the priority of worshipping and remembering God on Sundays, they rarely if never talk about what their faith is all about, assuming they even know. and sometimes, they don't even show good testimony as Christians. God is not glorified in their "Christian" lives.

Christianity is not a fad.

it's not what is cool today and out next week. like the title of kutless' song says, it is the promise of a lifetime. it's about how you live today, who you're living it for, and where you're gonna be after this life here on earth is over. it's about this awesome Saviour who has given us so much more than social acceptance or security. He has given us hope. that even in the worst of days, as Christians, we can rejoice in this hope.

it is a chance that we're given to experience intimacy in a personal relationship with this very Saviour.that is what being a Christian is all about.
