Some Minutes With God

In Christ, we don’t go through priests to have communion with God, but we must look outward as priests to the people of our world, to make certain they see Christ through us.  As a royal priesthood, we’re the bridge between God and the lost, to pray and share Christ.  But notice, we are one step better, in that we’re not merely a kingdom of priests, but we are a royal priesthood.  We are actually Christ’s royal family.  We are related to the king, and together we all have special access into God’s presence.

All of you young people here, what a great model and example you could be, not only at home, not only to your community, but also in the school settings and your learning situations, every setting you can be in, you can be that model that God desires for you to be. But it can only happen when you trust in Him, acknowledge who He is, lean not to your own understanding, acknowledge who He is, and then going forth in the path that He has directed you. This is the way that God will guide you and it's open to anyone and all you have to do is just do those things and God will keep his promise and show you which way to go religious rules. Purity, modesty, humility, and acceptance are keys to a life full of the Peace and Love of Christ. Modesty, and many other virtues and vices can be picked apart and redefined to fit different perspectives. But there is only one way to the Truth . . . Jesus. When our eyes are fixed on Christ, modesty will be reflected in our lives.

I stress the fact that in training children to worship God, it is the parent’s responsibility, and not the local church. Obviously, there is a plan for churches to take a more active role when parents are Non-Christian or non-responsive. God’s design is for the parents to lead children in the knowledge of Him, and the love of Him and Jesus.

t has been shrewdly said that true greatness grows. It not only endures, but actually increases. The stature of those whose greatness springs from goodness (as the highest always does) is enhanced as the years go by, and succeeding generations recognize more and more of significance in their character and influence. This is a principle clearly distinguishable in the case of those whom God has chosen to be lights of the world in their several generations. “The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” (Prov. 4:18).

The History behind most written hymms has a great relevance to The Christian life of the 21st Century. And as well teaches great lessons when the words are properly studied.
