Living for God

       This will be the last long one that I will write in awhile because my computer crashed. I can write on my phone but those enteries will be short. In Sunday school, we talked about running to God and during church we talked about what contentment really means and what we, as God's people, should do. We read 1 Timothy chapter 6 verses 1-21.
       Contentment could also mean "warning off" looking/pushing away things because we are fine where we are. Contentment does not mean "happiness". We might not like where we are but we can live with it by God helping us through it. He has a plan for everything that we go through. We should go for godliness, faith, love, patience, righteousness, and gentleness. Usually, that is what God is trying to grow and teach us when we are going through something hard or even something easy. We would push away things because it is not love or we can't have patience with it. It could not be gentle or godliness.
         Verse 13 says, "God who gives life to all things". Just think about that for a second. God gives life to all things whether alive or not. He is the One that created everything so He gives life to everything. Humans are His speical work and He loves us no matter what. He won't push us to love Him but yet He gives us the freedom to make the choice because what is true love if we are made to love a person. We have a choice through our actions and words. It is not a feeling.
          Verse 17 reminds people to trust God and that He is good.
          As I was sitting there listening to the sermon and reading the chapter, I was thinking about 3 different people that I am or was helping by showing them or reminding them of God. The peacher also gave us: Matthew 27:11-13 to look at too. I have one person in my life that I can help money wise. I can give more money too and also pray for. I have two people that I can help emotionally. Help them get back on track with God and happy again. Have them look on the positive side of life. Then I have one friend that I hope to help spiritually and lead them to God.
         God is working in my life. I see how He is using me in other people's life at honestly the weakness part of my life yet at the same time it is the strongest part of my life. I don't understand what I should tell them but at the same time I see how blessed I am to have what I do in my life. I wouldn't trade what I have for anything else even if we don't talk much or get along all the time. Every person have their moments.
