Pleasing God

My fourth post here :

Was at home for a few days for Onam vacations and again am back here.. About to post something  which is a message for all ....

Pleasing God is my topic for today...... Hope that you would be blessed by reading this blog of mine.. Me being a Christian believer, wanted to share my thoughts with you on this rather important topic.

I would like to tell you that if you please God, it doesn’t matter who you do NOT please. But if you do not please God, it doesn’t matter whom you please!!! Do you agree with me here? yes, am sure you do... please, read on........

Pleasing God is often a tough task, yet a Christian is pronounced - Bright Light, Strong Witness, Calm refuge and Stabilizing Force – among all the people. Why is it so? First, In an angry dark world, the Christian is a Bright Light. If you lead a joyful life, you will definitely attract attention. Like bees to a flower bud...As Jesus taught in His Sermon on the Mount “you are the light of the world.. let your light shine before men”{Mathew 5:14,16} The people of this world needs the joy that shines from within you. The joy of the Lord IS OUR STRENGTH!

Second, In a sinful, lawless society, the clean Christian is a strong witness to God’s Power to overcome sin. Bible urges us to stay clean. In this society which has lost its way in endless ways, a clean Christian is a beacon of hope, proclaiming that freedom and fullness is possible only through Jesus Christ.

Third, In a turbulent environment of deception, the discerning Christian is a Calm refuge. Think straight and be discerning. How do we discern?? Listen.... Listen closely.. Listen ever more closely.......For Truth! If what you are hearing conflicts with the truths and practices of the Bible, learn to Reject it – instantly!!

Fourth and final, in this insecure and totally confused age, the confident Christian is a stabilizing force. Stand firm... Let the Lord use you to bring stability in the church and in an unsteady world. Always be concerned of a brother’s / sister’s spiritual growth. Never merely be a church-goer, but a Church – doer.
Last but not the least, Practising a close fellowship with God brings in joy, purity, assurance, discernment and confidence.

Well, am about to stop here..... I will continue on similar topics later... Hope you hav had 'food for thought" - for today...
God bless you .
