killerkeller22 added a text contribution RelationshipsOften times we look at this scripture and think it only applies to "married" or "non-married" people. But this also applies to boyfriends/girlfriends as well. Think about it, when you're in a serious relationship with someone, aren't they you're main focus? Well, they are according to Paul. By being in a serious relationship, you are going to be anxious on worldly things instead of the things of God.... Read more »

killerkeller22 added a text contribution DoubtSo the disciples witness yet another miracle-- Jesus feeding over five-thousand people with five loaves and two fishes--and they go out to sail to the next town. But Jesus says that they should go ahead of them and he'll meet them at the town. So Jesus goes to a mountain to pray, and he sees the disciples struggling in a storm.

killerkeller22 added a text contribution Walking the walkAlthough this paragraph is aimed at the Jews, it also applies to Christians as well. We are called to be a light to the world, to be an example, but that is impossible if we only talk the talk, but not walk the walk. It is because we fall to do what we preach that God, our God, is misrepresented. A tragic reality we face today. But that can change, if, and only if, we decide walk the walk. Read more »

killerkeller22 added a text contribution Why we should serveMany people know that Jesus had a servant's heart. But many do not realize all the reasons why he served. Paul reveals the disastrous effects of NOT serving. By looking at celebrities, politicians, and even selfish friends, we can see some of these traits. This is why it is important to not seek our own way, with our own desires, but God's way. It's easy to be selfish, especially in these hard times,... Read more »
