This should be my last blog post for about a week.
So for all the people who had been reading(all 3 of you), please check back next week!
Anyways, our church has been steadily growing in the past few years. I think when a person becomes truly born-again, he or she feels so compelled to share this gospel with others that the days and weeks following the retreat becomes a time where we go out and try to witness to other souls with the passion and strength gained from spending 3-4 days just listening and reading the scriptures. I personally start with my immediate family. As my parents may see it, the downpour of rain, or in this case, Jesus on their heads from my constant nagging is just a start, I start calling them on Sunday mornings and the conversation usually ends with a “I’ll call you later”. As the weeks go by I lose passion, my downpour becomes scattered showers, and it gradually becomes a few scattered sprinkles that barely reaches people that I come across every day.
Please keep a prayer for me and others who struggle with bearing good fruits, allow this time of retreat to be a time where we share in the love of God with those who may not know the Truth yet. May I keep my heart reliant on God, and my body to follow in its guidance, not being disobedient but wholly exuding the attitude of a servant being upheld by God, obedient, and meek.
Matthew 7:13-14 "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. [14] For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it."
I went to sleep listening to this sermon about a month ago, it was tremendously moving.
May I not fall into the broad ways of destruction by following my own desires.
God Bless.
