GOD IS AWESOME!
Encouraging Word Of The Day
The encouraging word of the day is (Romans 12:2). Read Below!!!!!!!!!! Do not copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know Gods will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. This is a really good scripture to follow and to use in life daily!!!!!! This scripture tells us to not copy or do what the world does. Such as listening to secular music, which God did not create, or watch videos that are inappropriate, that you know you should not be watching. Did you know that according to Google, the word secular means, "denoting attitudes, activities, or other things that have no religious or spiritual basis."? Merriam-Webster states that secular means, "relating to the world." Whoa! Why would we want to be a part of secular things when God is not in it? Another behavior of the world would be telling lies. Some people tell lies because they do not want to tell the truth or are afraid to tell the truth because they fear getting in trouble. Remember when your mom would call your name and say, "What are you doing?" and your answer would be, "Nothing!!!" You know that was a lie but why did you lie? (Just something to think about.) Then there is cheating and stealing. These are big worldly behaviors. We might be tempted to cheat on a test we did not study for or steal someone elses pen because we thought it was cool. And you cannot forget meanness and selfishness. In this world today there are so many mean people that bully others and make them feel bad. Then there are those who are selfish and only think about themselves and have no respect for others. These behaviors and customs all exist in our world today. But our scripture for today says that we should not copy the ways of the world, but know that God wants the best for us. So listen to him and let God transform you into his original master piece. Allow God to modify you into a new person and change the way you think. Do not question yourself about letting God do his works in and for you, but instead just do what you know is right to God. We know that telling lies, cheating, and stealing is wrong (cause they are in the Ten Commandments), but sometimes we might forget and do them anyway. We also know that being mean and selfish are wrong but sometimes when our little brothers get on our nerves or our siblings just want what you have just because you have it, it might be easy to fall into the trap of being mean or selfish. But please let God create a new mind and spirit within you. If you do permit God to transform you then you will learn and know Gods will for you which is always good! This is Sydney saying goodbye and see you next time!!!! ( Romans 12:2 ) P.S.- This blog was written with the help of my
