Hello all, This is my fourth post as I search to hit the right tone on steemit and develop a base, I try to reach out in different topics to see where the interest of the population lies as well as provide educational and/or informative posts that have some value.
Today is a post about "Falling on your knees" before your Lord Jesus Christ and asking for forgiveness. Now I know that there are people who don't believe in God and there are that do. One thing that I will cover in this post, is something that both sides have in common.
Since February of 2017 I came back to Christ. Yes I was there before and I failed to do the one thing that could protect me from going astray. That is I failed to fall on my knees and ask for forgiveness when I failed to be on the right path and ask for guidance.
Its amazing thing when you pray and ask for forgiveness.
One thing I have learned is to ask myself often now, what do I care about the most right now. If Jesus Christ is your answer than you are living correctly. If not, fall on your knees and correct it. I have noticed myself stray away many times because I keep thinking that I know what I am doing, I know what I am allowed to do, I know what I am not allowed to do, but I also noticed that I fall on my knees more often everyday, why? Because the closer I attempt to get to Jesus, the more my eyes open up to how the path is so difficult and how much I fail to keep Jesus Christ #1 In my heart. I as a human lust for the things here on earth, I can't deny that, I like them. But more I lust for them the less I connect to Christ, the more my feelings become overwhelming, the more difficulty I have in church listening and understanding the sermons and connecting with people. I tell myself, I got this, I can fix it. I see what Solomon was saying in the book of Proverbs:
Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
One thing in common believers and non believers have is a desire to like something or want something, whatever that is in your heart, that is what you will radiate and others will feel from you. If you believe you can figure everything out on your own, you will run to a dead end at some point and get stuck its a matter of time, that I can tell you from my 32 years of experience here on earth.
Just want to conclude with one simple statement, If you want to be a christian than be a christian, don't say you will commit to Christ on monday thru wednesday, but on thursday fill yourself with lust and sin, if you commit yourself to Christ and fail, remember the answer to fixing that, drill it in your head and never forget. FALL ON YOUR KNEES and come to him, he loves you, he will forgive you. His blood still runs everyday for the best of christians because we all fail, the difference is do we fall on our knees and ask for forgiveness and guidance to radiate Jesus Christ.
God Bless all of you.
I urge you all who view this to leave a comment, we can even start a discussion. :) Just going to also put out there I am not a preacher I am just a normal person, trying to live a life with Christ, I am not holier than anyone I fail all the time, I have found fear for God and learned to fall on my knees all the time when I fail, so If you have informative information to educate me that is also VERY WELCOME. Also I wanted to conclude every sunday, when I come back from church I will do a post of a summary of the sermon I listened to in church. So check in every sunday if you want quick reading that is informative from what the bible teaches. I am a baptist in denomination in the christian world.
