03/31 Being A Christian
I personally have been a devout christian all my life. I have gone to my local church for as long as I can remember, and whenever I get a free minute in my busy schedule I am reading my bible looking for verses to help me through the good and also the bad times in my life.I recently went through a rough patch in my life and it made me think about who is god and what is he all about?
I had no idea why I started thinking about my Christianity and if it was really the life for me so I decided to do some research and actually found a book by Fiona Fay entitled who is god. Although I had my doubts at first about the book and whether or not the author really knew what she was talking about, by the end of reading it I immediately wanted to read it over and over again because it really showed me what being a christian is all about.
The book centers around a main idea that we as Christians are God on earth and that by our actions we show others why we love and serve the lord Jesus Christ. Not only does Fay tell the reader about being a christian, she also gives her own life story about going through a spiritual awakening and having her life completely transformed by giving her complete self to god and having him take control in her life. Many times we go through rough times in our lives that make us question who is god, and for the people who are not Christians it is even harder to think about god really being there for them and wanting to be a part of their lives.
Although we cannot feel him or see him actually working changes in our lives, god will always be there for us no matter what and guide us in whatever life throws at us. After reading the book who is god I realized so much about how god is working in our lives everyday and we as christians are the human form of god on earth and must show this by our daily actions.
