I'm blessed to know Christ since childhood and blessed to have parents that had taught us about God. They had showed us the right path to follow because when the right time comes we are ready to face the - Creator. But as I grew up I found it more challenging that the more closer you get to Him the narrower the road you have to take in but it makes you a stronger believer at the end. Sometimes I came to the point of just letting it go for who wants to suffer? So we prefer an easy way out. But one thing we have forgotten that the reward is eternal and it's priceless to be with God. Just take a look in our society right now the material desire had taken over everything is just a button click then it's done... Aren't we wishing the same too? That in just a click we'll know where our life's gonna be. Our life is just like a piano that it plays beautiful music depending on how you play the keys. Life is marvelous and we are blessed to enjoy with it and be thankful to our Creator.
In the school I work at we have this small group of Bible study wherein our course of study is "When Godly People Do Ungodly Things" by Beth Moore. According to March 2000 Online U.S. News Web Surfers spent $970 million on the access to adult-content sites. According to a survey of pastors and lay leaders conducted by Leadership Magazine, 62% have regularly viewed pornography. As we consider how godly people can be enticed into doing ungodly things. "Seduction can take many different forms, but Satan is no doubt having an illicit field day by sexually seducing many saints" (Beth Moore). We would say perhaps out of curiosity, loneliness, perhaps as a way to do mentally what may think they won't dare physically. But Satan gained a surmountable victory either way. It's absolutely affected our marriage, to our children, workplace and to our relationship to God. Satan will do everything to turn our faith away. Sexual sin is a perfect choice to achieve Satan's goal because, "Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. If we commit sexual sin it's against our self and God" 1 Corinthians 6:18-20.
Just few weeks ago we heard this shocking news about our friend in church. He is a deacon both of them are teachers with kids and seemed like a perfect couple to look at too but the husband had just found out that she was cheating on him for a year. This reality is so difficult to believe and so hard to comprehend... Our prayers were sentforth for them to be directed to the right path and right decision for.
We should be positive "encourage one another", Hebrews 10:24-25. "Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour" 1 Peter 5:8. I hope this thoughts would enlighten us... Have a blessed Sunday. God is good! All the time!

That's right it's hard to comprehend when a Godly woman cheating on her husband. The question is was she really a Christian or just pretending? I can't judge. To be a Godly follower we have to keep our faith strong and firm dahil the world is tempting.
Musta na Jon?
