Feb 28 - 2 Timothy 1:7

“For God did not give us a spirit of
timidity, but a spirit of power, of
love and of self-discipline.”- 2 Timothy 1:7


God gave us so much we can use to get to know people. sometimes when we play basketball or when musicians jam there are times of fellowship that you can use to connect with people. some people don't take advantage of that. I sometimes don't even take advantage of that. there are many things in life that we should use for our benefits but sometimes we don't. sometimes we see it clearly that God has given us a gift to use, but we don't use it.

let's be thankful for the gift we have received from God and go out there and share it with others.

Feb 25 - 1 John 4:9

“This is how God showed his love
among us: He sent his one and only
Son into the world that we might
live through him.”- 1 John 4:9

God showed his love among us by sending his only Son, Jesus into the world and Jesus died because of us, because we sinned Jesus died. Jesus was probably the only 100% human that lived in this world and didn't sin. everyday i sin i remember how easy it is to sin. Sinning always happens to me and i always believe how crazy it is that someone lived... without sinning...

Jesus is the man... and he came down to earth for us, and God gave his only son for us...
what an awesome love and amazing grace...

Feb 24 - Matthew 22:37-39

“Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your
God with all your heart and with all
your soul and with all your mind.'
This is the first and greatest commandment.
And the second is like it: 'Love your
neighbor as yourself.”- Matthew 22:37-39

first love God then love neighbor...
be selfless like God is the simple
way to put it.

God is very important in our life and sometimes i forget it. sometimes i forget that God is more important then ourself. we should be selfless like Jesus was when he came down, but sometimes i find myself very selfish and caring only for myself. Life is simple and we should serve others.

Feb 23 - 1 John 4:19

We love because he first loved us.
- 1 John 4:19

plain and simple... Love that we have between God and us is true because of God. God is very important in our life and it's just very important to see that God is all mighty and it's not about us.

not to us but to your name... that's what's important. we win at the end not because we were such a good person but because God is amazing. and his grace covers us all. life would be so meaningless without God and it's all about him...

so let's love God

Feb 22 - Proverbs 14:22

“Do not those who plot evil go astray?
But those who plan what is good find
love and faithfulness.”- Proverbs 14:22

hey let's live life by planning to do good things. let's not even think of plotting against someone. plot against anyone including people who doesn't believe in God. God is important and it's very good. God is good and he's good all the time... let's do good things so that we can make God happy!

good job give me give me that high five!

Feb 20 - Romans 13:9-10

“The commandments, "Do not commit adultery,"
"Do not murder," "Do not steal," "Do not covet,"
and whatever other commandment there may be,
are summed up in this one rule: "Love your neighbor
as yourself." Love does no harm to its neighbor.
Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.”- Romans 13:9-10

i think we miss the point many time when we read commandments that it's just 10 rules to restrict us, but as it is said in this that all these commandments really just say "love your neighbors as yourself." i'm continuing this talk of love. and this time it's about love we should be giving others. to love God we should love others. also it is said that if you really love God you must keep your friends close and your enemies closer. the love that we should be giving each other should be genuine still... it's hard but it's Christianity... and being a christian is hard.

Feb 18 - Romans 8:38-39

“For I am convinced that neither 
death nor life, neither angels nor 
demons, neither the present nor 
the future, nor any powers, neither 
height nor depth, nor anything else 
in all creation, will be able to 
separate us from the love of God 
that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Romans 8:38-39

it's incredible how the love God gives us is unending... and so incredible yet the love we give back is just so limited. God gives us everything even his only son but sometimes we don't even have it in our hearts to give our time to spend with him for quiet time.

i'm very guilty of this because there are so many times i find myself pushing quiet time back and back and sometimes not even doing it because exam is more important, because game is more fun, and things in that nature. it's natural and impoortant for us to give back to our maker and our savior and let's be a good christian and not forget about God... ever...
