Old Posts

We need God for our selves. I read through my old post and I delete some, I correct spelling and hope I am only leaving good posts. I am a political person and a Christ-follower. I write to help me retain what I read in my daily devotion. I put it out here in public space in the hope I encourage someone else.  I am surprised at how much I misspell words, I have gone through 100 old posts and have corrected spelling in each of them. Really I need Jesus all for myself. This writing  (these posts) are a mirror of what is inside of me. What is in our hearts comes out of our mouth. I pray that the meditations of my heart will be acceptable to God. Each of us needs God for ourselves. You can follow me as I follow Christ, but you need to know for yourself if I am telling the truth. Each of us needs our own personal relationship with Jesus. The next generation cannot depend on my relationship just as I cannot depend on my father's relationship. It is each generation for themselves, each person for themselves. There will be no grandchildren in heaven, meaning each generation needs to find God for themselves. Our nation was founded by imperfect men that sought God for direction. Some of them were slave owners yet they set up a government that abolished slavery less than 100 years later. They were men of their age, where women were almost nothing more than property but set up a government that gave women equal rights. They were white men that set up a government that believed in equality (for all races) and our country actually became better than it was in its beginning. Even though they were God-fearing men, those churches that they attended in their age are probably no longer in existence. I think it was wisdom that they did not set up a state religion even though they believed this government would only work for a God-fearing people. With their faith in God, they set up the best government that has ever been to this point. Someone once said that it was the worst form of government except for all others. They had a relationship with a sovereign God that has left us better than we were as a nation in the beginning.  It is the same thing today, we need God for our selves.  Only follow me as I follow Christ. Each of us needs God for ourselves. I hope these posts have been a blessing and point to a loving God. I hope and pray these posts have been acceptable to God. I hope they bless and encourage others as I follow Christ to the best of my ability.  Jesus has been the best thing that ever happened to me.  God bless, LVZ.
