New Life

I can't understand how anyone can't believe in God after looking at a new born child. Think about the complexity of it all, how something so beautiful can't go from a single cell organism to a living breathing, kicking screaming life. How they can look at nature and see the cycle of life. The fish of the waters, the birds, the animals. Take a close look at a single leaf and see how the leaf is designed to sustain itself. That's not evolution, that's creation, not created by man, machine, or the big bang theory. I just spent the day with my new granddaughter, looking at her hands and feet and thinking about the amazing and awesomeness of Gods handy work in this world. Friends lets step back and take along look at the world around you and realize there is a God and he is still at work.
You know I do believe in the big bang theory.

God said BANG and it happened.

Thoughts on being a Christian

Christianity;
 We so often call ourselves Christian. What does it mean to be a Christian? it's not just going to church or saying we believe, it is a life changing experience that means a  walking talking relationship with Jesus Christ. You can go to church, you can pray, and call yourself anything you like, just because you believe doesn't mean anything, you know the devil believes. There are preachers on the pulpit today that do not know the true understanding of a relationship with Christ. One of the best testimonies I've ever heard was from a youth pastor who had been a pastor for 10 years but had never really turned his life over to Christ until one night at a youth rally when he had to walk that isle in front of his youth group. We can't be good enough, we can't do enough good deeds, and we can't just make sure we obey all the commandments, we have to commit ourselves completely to Christ, then walk by faith. John 3:3-5
