Wow, haven't been here in a while...

Today was sad, I learned that a few kids recently died in a very tragic car accident. These people were only teenagers. This kind of event tells you that life is truly very short, you never know when your time has come. I want to encourage anyone who reads this to remember that. And also remember, that God loves you and doesn't want to see you suffer. Sometimes things happen and we don't have all the answers, at these times we sometimes blame God for what has happened without understanding the reasons why God sometimes allows bad things to happen to good people. The truth is that all bad things, may it be problems, pressures, past hurts and failures do not come from God, they come from the enemy, satan. God some times allows bad things to happen to "good" people, and even followers of Christ to make us grow. I'm telling you now. God truly wants you to live a life of overcoming victory. God wants you to be able to look at any problem that you face and tell the enemy that he can't bring you down. The Bible says that God is for us and not against us, and that if God is for us, who can dare be against us. The Bible also says that God has a plan for your life, a plan to prosper your not life and not harm you, a plan to give you hope and a future. If we have a personal relationship with God through his one and only son Jesus Christ, then we recieve the gift of salvation, the gift of eternal life in heaven and saved from eternal death in hell. And not only does God want you to be saved but he wants you to have a life that overcomes any obstacle, that lets you have a life that is victorious of the enemy and a life that is prosperous. And the Bible declares, "therefore if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation, the old is gone and the new has come" We have to remember that our time can be over at any second, and it doesn't matter how bad things have gotten in your life, God loves you so much that he gave up his only son Jesus, to die a thief's death, so that we can have eternal life. And the best thing is, the gift of salvation is free all you have to do is accept it, and it's yours.

God Bless
