Inspired by the principle to stop, listen and love, this blog is dedicated to sharing the Word of Christ and encouraging His followers to live more like Him. To slow down from the busy-ness of our lives, listen and interact with GOD (and others) and act in a way that is reverently responsive to Christ's love!
I hope that, through these posts, you will find Christ more attractive than ever before, and that you will be encouraged and inspired to live in a way that makes Him attractive to others!
That's what worship is about, encountering GOD and sharing Him with others. It's not about 'Sunday Church'. It's about the way we live, the way we treat ourselves and the way that we treat others. Worship and Justice!
Jesus is Lord. He is King and He is GOD's only Son. He left us His Holy Spirit so that we could have His power on earth. It's through this power that we can gladly join with GOD in changing the world and making a difference in the lives around us. It's through Him that we can worship and live reverently responsive.
A core value of a follower of Christ needs to be encouragement. It's not enough to blame our personalities or circumstances when we put others down. If we're honest, it's selfishness, insecurity and jealousy that holds us back from encouraging others.
With the Holy Spirit in us, we become new creations, confident of our self worth because Jesus paid the ultimate price for our survival! It is this new creation that enables us to become encouragers! If we are to be true worshippers, then our lives need to look different, we need to act differently.
I pray that through this site you will encounter GOD is a new and fresh way that will empower you to become a transformed, new creation!
What is church? Where and when should we do it? What is worship? How can I encourage others in my church?
These are valid questions that get asked by those who see more than just the four walls and Sunday expectations of your average 'worshipper'.
I believe that GOD seeks more than average, He commands excellence! If you are one of the many who feels like there is something more, who feels like GOD has replaced your expectations with expectancy, then I encourage you to join me on the journey of following GOD with lives that are no longer ordinary.
Lives that are empowered by His Holy Spirit! Lives that are reverently responsive. Lives that will gain eternal significance.
Lives that are drenched in His affectionate satisfaction!
