Connect

Connecting is a big part of being a Christian. What exactly am I talking about? Well, there are two ways we connect: connect to God and connect with others. It's our responsibility to improve our relationships with God and others. I'd like to begin with connecting with God because it is far easier to connect with others once you've connected with God.

Everday you have the chance to "connect" with God. What I mean by this is you have the oppurtunity to talk with God, be with God, learn about God and ultimately become more like God. This is really important because you have to learn to be in God and of God and that's a big deal. Be truly passionate about God. Want to connect with Him. How could you not want to be more like God? God's a good guy. If you be like Christ you can most likely bring people to Christ. How do you connect with God? Well, many ways, you can pray, read the Bible, worship or even sit in the presence of God. I'm not gonna lie, it's not always easy, but it's completely worth it.

The second connection, is the connection with others. To bring people to Christ (which is our purpose) you have to have relationships with others. You have to reach out to people. You need to LOVE one another. I can't stress that enough, it is so important to love each other. When you go to school or wherever you go where you come into contact with people you have the oppurtunity to build a relationship with someone. You have the chance to reach out and make a difference just by caring. Why would you let that slip away? Seize every oppurtunity. It's vital. Be DESPERATE with passion to LOVE others.

LOVE GOD. LOVE PEOPLE.
