Hello, friends and family. I decided to start this blog for this very reason, I am inspired.
A couple of days ago (By the time you're reading this, probably a week), I was scrolling through Facebook, when I ran across an article. I clicked on it, which lead me to Grace Valentine's blogging website. I quickly recognized her passion and drive to succeed in journalism. In the past, I have been drawn to journalism as well. (At one time in my life, I wanted to be a New York Times Editor, lol.) I also love to read Katie Buck's tweets on twitter. Her tweets are such a great pick me up throughout the day. Anyways, I then realized, that wasn't the only common interest we had, Jesus Christ was one more. Later that night, I was reading in my Bible, when I ran across 1 Corinthians 15:58, which reminds me of Proverbs 3:6. I will have those versus linked below. As I read, I quickly became inspired once more. This time, to spread the love and joy of Jesus Christ to anyone and everyone that I can. 1 Corinthians 15:58 tells us to stand firm in the lord and to always give yourself fully to the work of the Lord. Do we do that? I try to let anything I do, be done through my Lord, but it's easy to get lost in society. You have to be so very careful. We had a guest speaker at church Sunday and he said something that stuck with me. He said, "Hollywood, along with society, tells us one thing, but the Bible tells us another." That is so true. You can't get lost in materialistic things. Lots of times we try to please the world, myself included, when we should be trying to please God. The world isn't our home, we are just passing through. Heaven is our home and to get there, we have to fully commit to Christ Jesus. This week, I want to challenge you. Get inspired. Get motivated. Serve the Lord. & Stand firm in your faith. Thanks for reading. - Ali b. 1 Corinthians 15:58 NIV Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourself fully to the work of the Lord, because you know your labor in the Lord is not in vain. Proverbs 3:6 NIV In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
