Here I Am --Send Me!

"Here I am. Send me!" is what us faith-based believers should be saying to any call we get from our Lord when it comes to telling others about EVERYONE'S God. It's a strong expression of being ready to serve God. A willingness to accept a mission or task, even if it's difficult or unclear at that moment, and even if it means surrendering one's own plans, but trusting a higher purpose or calling from God.

God has been calling me recently to speak out more about Him. I talk about God at work; all my leadership knows I'm Christian, and this is the reason why I have this blog...to talk about the Word to others.

And as I listen for any other calling from God to do His Will, His tasks, I will continue to say, "Here I am, Lord. Send me!"

Most Likely, You Are Reading the Bible More Than You Realize!

This is an interesting question. 

Yes, you should read the Bible every day, however, it doesn't have to be formally, literally read every day.

If one lives their life focused on God and his Word, you will naturally read the Bible every day in some way, shape, or form. For instance:

You could be reading a faith-based app where it will mention somewhere scripture verse(s).

There could be scripture verse(s) on your wall, T-shirts you own, or any type of evangelizing item in your home that you see every day.

Most faith-based websites will quote at least one scripture from the Bible that you will read. You should be following a lot of Christians on social media where you will always see scripture verses in your feed daily.

Even many faith-based films and music quote scripture, so you are hearing the Word.

So there are lots of ways to "read" the Bible, besides sitting down and reading from it; that is the best way though, but it's wonderful to know that at the end of the day, if you have not actually sat down and read the Bible directly, you did read or hear the Word somewhere today!

The Bible Isn't a Novel

The Bible is made to put into practice, not to be just read, like reading a novel.

In the article below, it said, "When you read God's Word but don't apply it...The foundation of your life may crumble." Then it went on to say, "That's not a threat--it's a diagnosis". 

Well, it should be meant as a threat. You WILL crumble, to a certain degree, if you don't apply God's Word. It's filled with basic common sense--and more!

It's important to advance spiritually, and not just stay babies, as mentioned in one of my past blogposts.
