Finishing My Life with God

Today was another inspiring day learning about the Lord. When i got home after church i was filled with this sense of happiness. It was a great feeling. Can’t wait for next week’s sermon by Pastor Bobby. Next week on Sunday i also have a meeting with Pastor Bobby. Not really sure what it’s about but I’m guessing it’s about my relationship with the Lord.

Talking about the Lord has been something I’ve been thinking about lately. A lot of it is how can better understand the Lord. How can i know what he wants from me? That’s the easy part. I have Pastor Bobby and all my friends at Compass to help me understand what God wants from me. But the more i think the more i wonder if I’m as comitted to God as i can be. I know I’m new but I don’t think that gives me an excuse to not put God as my focus. So my main goal these upcoming weeks to is to turn the focus of my life to God. What can i do to make God my number 1 priority?

Today Pastor Bobby did a Sermon comparing Christians to athletes. One of his main points was finishing the race. As a starting Christain(and a young person at that) finishing the race seems pretty far off. Barring any deadly accidents i have a good 60 years a head of me if not more. Really makes me think of  how far i have to go. In race terms im running the marathon here. Pretty far, huh? While it does seem like a daunting task i know i have an ace up my sleeve. I have my own coach/trainer/inspiration/running buddy/fan there with me. I have Jesus! I have someone who knows all that i will face and can tell me how make it through. I have someone thats training me for the spiritual burn i feel. I have someone who has done it before giving me inspiration. I have someone right here to encourage me when times get hard. I have someone pulling for me to reach the end. I have Jesus! There’s no denying it will be a tough journey but i have the God Almighty on my side. And guess what?  It’s nice knowing i have Jesus and God on my side :]
