The Lord in my Life

Gods story mixing into our lives is a very important thing to wrap your mind around.  This helps to know what God expects of you and how he wants you to act. just like in the Ten Commandments how he said "Thou shalt not lie", "Thou shall not murder", and the other eight . He also talks about keeping a clean temple which means keeping your body clean and pure. he is not overbearing though, because He does let you do what you want to do, but He wants you to follow what He tells you to do in his word. My favorite part of intertwining Gods story in my life is that i can show the love that He showed me and all of us on the cross, and just hope that others can see Him working through me.

Hebrews study

I recently took a deeper look into the book of Hebrews. It immediately caught my attention when It started talking about the definition of Faith (eleventh chapter of Hebrews). The exact definition it gives is that Faith is  “Being sure of  what we hope for and certain of what we do not see”.  I was even more interested when it talked about my bible hero, Noah, who obeyed the Lord even when everyone else ridiculed him and made a mockery of him for it. Then it went on to talk about Abraham who is also a critical part of the Bible. He was called to  a place to receive his inheritance, but was still unsure. The important part though, was that he went anyway, and followed what the Lord had instructed him to do. Still though at the end I was unsure about how he talked of that he lived in the promise land in a tent until God built the city around him (which he never did). It also talked of how the Israelites passed through the red sea, but when the Egyptians tried to come back after them, God made the sea swallow them up. The interesting thing was that they were praised for what they had done but never given what they were promised. This makes me know how much God works in mysterious ways.
