Be Encouraged. There is Hope.

Daily writing prompt
List 10 things you know to be absolutely certain.
* Life can be better.
* Choices matter.
* Hurts can be healed.
* Attitude matters.
* Guilt can be forgiven.
* Thoughts and words matter.
* People can change.
* Encouragement is powerful.
* Hope can arise.
* Jesus became real to me in an instant and I've been joyously passionate about following and obeying Him ever since.

To teach people information about Jesus without training them to daily listen to and obey Him misses the point of Christianity. We need to go beyond that.

Make a strait path for the Lord to work in your heart. Remove all of the obstacles out of His way. (Matthew 3:3)

How Long Will You Wait?

Enlist
In God’s army.
Untwist
The hardness
Of your heart.
Insist
That your every
Thought, feeling,
And desire
Align with Christ.
Resist
Any that don’t.
Persist
.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
