Christians In Action

You were made for a mission; a mission to share the good news of Jesus Christ. We were all brought into this world to be a witness for Him and you are still on this world to continue being a witness for Him. Many think that to be a witness for Jesus Christ you have to be an expert. But thats wrong. People do not want to hear from  "know-it-alls" or the "stiff religious people," they are interested in hearing how God has changed lives. They are interested in hearing from you. We are His p...

Ever wonder how different your life would be if you established boundaries, or guardrails in your life? Ever think that maybe our greatest regrets in life could have been avoided if we had put guardrails up. Just like on the roads, there are guardrails to keep us out of the ditches and to save our lives. Well it works the same way in other areas of our life. Like in relationships, friendships, etc. We need guardrails in all the areas of our life to protect us. You might be thinking, "But how?...

As we live day to day, we are faced with tragedy's, some worse than others and we ask ourselves why does God allow these things to happen? If He is such an awesome and powerful God, why? In John 16:33, Jesus tells us the truth, He says, "You will have suffering in this world." He did not say you might, He said you will. But why exactly? We don't always know why God does some of the things He does, and we may never know, but that is where trust comes in. We need to trust that God will protect ...

As some of us drift away from God, we need to learn how to find Him again. Life is very difficult when we do not let the Lord in our lives, when we push Him away. In order to find God again, to come back to Him we need to pray about it, talk to Him. God always has a room for us in His house, so when we drift away from Him, our spot in His house will always be there because He wants us, He loves us. The first step in finding God again is to just pray, talk to God about everything that is on yo...

I've seen a handful of people in life drift away from the Lord, but I never thought I would be one of those people.. I haven't posted in a year and I am not proud of it, I am not proud of not trusting in the Lord and turning my back on Him.. But it happens, we can get so caught up in life and "fitting in" that some of us turn the other way, we drift away and we fall short of the Glory of God. We think we can do things on our own but we are wrong, we can not do things on our own, we need Gods'...

What kind of choices are we faced with everyday in life? Life is full of choices, bad and good. Can you think of some of the choices that you have made in the past weeks? How do we make the good choices? And how do we feel when we make the wrong choices? Think about it for a minute. Can you think of some good and bad choices you have made lately? While you are thinking about that also think of what kind of things effect the choices we make. People and their moods can effect how we make choice...

Have you ever looked at your life and asked yourself, " Who has influenced my life? " or have you ever wondered if you've ever influenced someone elses life? Well, in life, people will influence you and you will influence other people. What we need to make sure is that the people who influence us are good influences and not bad. By good, I mean people who want you to become and better person and by bad I mean people who want to hold you back. For an example, your parents are great influences ...

" If God is real, if God is personal, if God loves us, why does God allow evil? " It seems that at some time in everyone’s life they must ask themselves or someone else this question. And when it comes down to it, nobody knows! So, did God create evil? No. Then who did? You all are probably thinking, " Well that's easy, Satan created evil, " but Satan, the devil,  cannot create anything. God is the creator of all things. But Satan can twist or turn the things t...

In Matthew 11, the Bible tells us, " Come to me, all you who are tired and have heavy loads and I will give you rest. " So, we all are very good at messing up and doing things wrong. We have failed maybe at school, or at home, messed up a friendship, or upset someone, let someone down, maybe even let yourself down which is even worse. When we mess up, it tends to mess with our heads and we feel worthless, or like a loser.  And because we feel this way sometimes its a good thing to have s...

When we use the word, "jealous" we use it in a sense of being envious of someone who has what we don't have. This kind of jealousy is a sin. It shows us that we are still being controlled by our desires. Galatians 5:26 says, " Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. " Being jealous indicates that we are not happy with what God has given us. The Bible tells us to be content with what we have, for God will never forsake us. Hebrews 13:5 says, " Keep your lives free from t...
