I by no means claim to be perfect or wise. I am young, and not very experienced in life.
However, I have come to think of a few things that I sort of only realized from myself having experienced them.
I've wondered what encourages someone to become a true Christian?
From what I have experienced some people try to become Christians because they fear that their souls will burn for eternity.
Some people want to have a prosperous and wealthy life.
Some people want healing, and some people are just scared that God is going to punish them.
I too thought this way, and I am guilty of having been motivated by some of these ways of thinking.
What I have now come to see is that I want to follow Christ because I want to live as I was intended to live by God.
I want to adhere to the original design and intentions God had set for his creation.
By doing so, we will lack nothing in every sense. Allowing the will of God to shape your life and character is truly the only way for us to find peace, love and communion with YHWH.
I think the focus has to be redirected and we need to understand that the modern world is pushing society further and further away from the original design that God had intended for our lives.
This way we will have better discernment when it comes to identifying snares set by the enemy.
If we truly allow the will of God to guide our path, everything else will follow.
Seek first the Kingdom of God, and everything else will be added.
