we never know how much we loved something until its gone. that is very true. we take stuff for granted way too much. i include myself. man right now i have the ability to stand up on my two feet, walk somewhere and talk to somebody. many people wish they could do that. and yet here i am..too lazy to go across the street and start a conversation and talk a little about my Jesus.
i mean if we won a million dollars everybody would know. if they didnt know cuz you told them, they knew because they could tell by your stuff..or for this blogs purpose,,,your fruits. u got that? its good.
the bible tells us in matthew during one of jesus teachings that people know you by your actions and the fruit which you produce. you see many can talk the talk..but many cant walk the walk. walking requires more energy. it requires moving. it even requires thinking at times. but us lazy people...walking is just out the picture. ill sit here and talk all you want and tell you everything you wanna hear. but when it comes to walking...nah ill sit and talk.
now im not talking about physically walking and talking..sorta. im talking about your walk with god. get that? your WALK with God? not your talk with God. people dont ask you..."so how is your talk with God?" they ask "so how is your walk with God?" implying that we are actually walking in our walk with Christ. we gotta move!! always!! Jesus did. the disciples did. i just read the entire book of Acts. AMAZING! the discples were soo bold its crazy. but we gotta be crazy. cuz we are loved in a crazy fashion by the Creator. back to Acts. the discples were moving. city to city. sailing. walking. spreading the gospel far and wide. everywhere. everyone who would listen. even everyone who wouldnt listen.
whew. we gotta walk. cuz when we start walking. were gonna start jogging. then eventually were running. there are a ton of verses in phillipians, acts and other books that refer to 'running this race'. we gotta crawl before we can walk.
crawl to God.
cry to him.
just likes babies.
he will raise us up.
we will start walking. we will definatly fall.
but he will be there.
sometimes he may wait a while before he picks us up.
but he's there.
then we got it down.
we start jogging.
we grow weary.
but we got our accountability to help us go on.
we start running.
dont stop.
we almost there.
keep going.
thank you jesus for your words. may they bless the heart you wanted to bless. whoever you wished to speak through using this message. thank you God. you are holy. amen.
