FLY!

Hi peeps! I learnt tonnes of stuff at Kidshaper last week hehe. I wanted to share about what I picked up from the conference. This blog is about one of the sessions that i went to:

The Kidshaper theme this year was 'fly'. The first session was on wednesday night. It was about soaring to new heights. God did not make us to live normal lives; we were made to 'fly'. Climb to new altitudes and levels in your walk with God. We should not be content of how pure our lives are, but we should be aiming to constantly grow in faith and get closer to God. This reminds me of the 'Highlife' theme for the fungus/101 camp. It was really something we should remember each adn every day.

Is God in control of your life, or is it yourself that makes all the decisions? Do you walk in his will or your own? That is one part that the precher mentioned. When we become a Christian, we are meant to take up our cross everyday. This means that we die to ourselves for the sake of Christ.

Also the precher mentioned somethign that was also not particuarly relevant to the topic, but i wanted to include it too. Soemtiems we do what God wants us to do, but we don't do it the best we can.

Eg: God wants you to talk to your friend about him. You go up to them and breifly tell them then walk off.

We did waht God asked us to do, but we did not make a proper effort. God sees your attitude towards all the thigns that you do. He looks at the inside, not the outside.

"We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us" - That is absolutely true. I noticed that society tends to depict Christianity as really boring and strict. They thing God is one who condems and punishes us all the time. I am a sure we all know that is not the case, so take a step of faith and boldness and tell your friends about God. The Crazy Sex Rally is comign up soon. As i mentioned before; an awesoem opportunity to invite ur horney friends! xD

Yeh a main point of the sermon was also faith. The bible states that without faith, it is IMPOSSIBLE to please god. That is where he responds and miracles start to happen. That also coems back to a phrase 'the just shall live by faith'. If u understand it, that is cool, cause i dont hehe.

Don't doubt God; he is real, and we know it. Soar to new levels of faith each day, and strive to get closer to God.

Bye peeps! God bless!

Btw, nice weather to today eh? And sprign in 1 week! booyaHHH!
