The #unanswerable proof of #Christianity is how it #transforms us into being #better people. Our stories show us how He lives within us and when we #share them, we share the Lord with each other.

If we are to be truly #kind, first forget any plan or act that you want to take. Rather, find out what others really need. Then, act accordingly. To often we take offense because we act out of #kindness first without consideration, and do an unappreciated thing

Every thing you may try will not always work. Not every seed planted, grows. #Setbacks and #discouragement will happen as will #persecution. But do not have #despair. Carry #God in your #heart and #love others and the #harvest of your work will be guaranteed and be plentiful.

To really #pray, you must know what you are asking for. Do not be #vague. Take time to really examine your #consciousness and your actions. See where your #need, #faults, and #sins are. Pray on that. You will find the more #precise you are the more you get back

Remember that Christ spoke to the people of his time and era so they would understand his message. It takes some effort, but you need to adopt His timeless messages of love into your own culture and times

Be happy with the #blessings you have today, they are greater than monetary #wealth. The desire to be #rich can cause problems. Many become #blind to how they get their #money. This can cost them greatly in #relationships and #ethics which they discover #toolate

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

Be careful not to become #complacent in #Christ. You are not saved once and then can just sit back and relax. Keep on striving to enter into the Kingdom of #Heaven, your striving should be intense almost to the point of agony. (Lk13:22-30) Keep growing in faith your whole life!

#Conflicted? Sometimes doing the #RightThing is harder than doing the #popular thing. To do what is right it will often times call for #sacrifice, #selfdenial, and #discipline. It is worth it though. It leads you to true #happiness and satisfying #peace

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

Be careful, you can become #stagnant, and #blind so that when #God reaches out to you, you can not understand Him. #Prejudice, #laziness, and always having to be 'right' can really #close your mind and your #heart.

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

Each of us is on a #journey in life. Some who have accepted #Christ as #Lord and preach His word may not always agree with you. That is OK. Do not stop them or hate them. Christ's message is one of love. #Trust that whomever is for Christ is really not against you and continue on

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

Need a new start? Never stop #admitting to your past #faults and promising to do better. #Mercy is a great thing. You will always find #forgiveness and a sense of 'relief' every time you try make a change.

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

Take anyone you see in your life that is #suffering somehow. Sit down and think about what they deal with throughout their day. Imagine you had those problems today. Once you really feel their pain: get up, go and help them as they need it and you'll feel immensely better inside

"You are the light of the world. Shine your light before all men and women so that they may see the good that you do so they may also give glory to God." Jesus, insp. Matthew:5

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

"If you keep on asking for good gifts, they will be granted to you. If you keep on seeking good things, you will find them. If you keep desiring good things, they will present themselves." Jesus, insp. Matthew:6

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

What is #forgiveness? It is not removing a #penalty for your #sin in hopes of escaping #justice. Rather, it is #restoring a #relationship that was harmed by #lies, #mockery, #violence or other #shortcoming. See in forgiveness an #opportunity to go back to when things were better.

"Do not destroy someone else’s name or reputation. You may not be a murderer, but you are one at heart when you do this." Jesus, insp. Matthew:5

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

"When you fast, take great care to not be so visible about it or announce it. Rather, fast to your Father in secret." Jesus, insp. Matthew:6

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

A great tragedy is to get to the end of your life and realize you settled only for existing. #Greatness is not in #power, #money, #possessions, and pursuit of self-indulgent #leisure, but comes in reducing yourself to #service of others. Don't merely exist! Love through service.

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

"Take care that no one deceives you for many will come in my name saying 'I am the Christ' and they will lead many astray." Jesus, Matthew 24:4-5

[Hope in SJ @HopeInSJ]

When #God asks you to do something, He's #persistent. Therefore, when you ask God for something also be persistent. Be like a #child and say, 'Dada, I know you know what is best for me, but just in case you wanted me to #ask: I am asking for it.'
