One thought. Everyone can handle considering just one thought…

Say a new friend, interested in finding out more about you, asks, “What religion do you believe in?”
If you answer, “Christian,” can you take just a minute, here and now, to consider one thought–

What does that mean?  To call yourself “Christian”…what does that actually mean?  What is the definition of what it means to be a Christian?

It means, very specifically, that you believe that there was a human man who walked the Earth who was born, lived, taught, and was killed in his 30’s.  You believe that this man is the human incarnation of God–he had access to all of God’s knowledge, his powers and abilities, his omnipotence.  And you believe that God sent this man to give us the best set of rules, advice, and help to live by, and that his purpose was to give us a way to get back to Heaven…back to Eden, and to God. 

But most of all, you believe that God sent a real, living, breathing, human man, who experienced all of the best and worst things that we also experience, and that he was everything God is, but he was actually, physically, here.  Think about the reality of that…God on Earth, tangible, standing in places that you may have stood. 

And consider, if that is possible (because that is what you believe!!), all of the other things that can be possible for humankind.  The miracles that we can access if we trust the God who would do that…

Just consider.  Use that incredible, unfathomable miracle of a brain that God gave you…and think.

Love to all. 🙂
