6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds
through Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Philppians 1:6-8
When we profess to be Christians we are to follow Christ's example and ask that often seen question, what would Jesus do?
In your life as a Christian, do you follow the example of Christ or do you contradict it and often back away for an easier option contrary to what Christ would have done? Well it is not always easy to take the narrow path and follow Christ's example with you as we follow his teachings in the Scriptures we should pray for the strength, courage and commitment to stay on that narrow difficult path with troubles and problem. But if we are honest with ourselves and others, we have all fallen short and various times throughout life but thanks to a loving and forgiving God when we confess and repent of our shortcomings and sins we are forgiven.
The broad and narrow path is much easier and the evil one and his entourage are very good at tempting us to take that path and find the easy way through but sadly not the way to eternal life!
So let us work together, meet together, pray together and encourage each other to follow Christ's example and show for his in our steps through life that we followers of Christ.
Heavenly Father, we ask for your strings and guidance as we strive to follow the example set by your son to shine for his as examples that might draw others to follow his way. In Jesus precious name we pray. Amen
