GOD WITHOUT RELIGION (PART 2 OF 3)


This is the second blog of the "God Without Religion Series." We are trying to answer the question that the author asked me at the beginning at the book. Can it really be this simple?  This simple to live God without having religion? Here is a story that is about sinful nature. (If you missed the 1st here's the link, ---> GOD WITHOUT RELIGION (PART 1 OF 3)<---


In this story the author draws a picture of sinful nature as a rat in you house. He talks about how the rat destroys stuff in your house, like wires or pipes just anything you can think a rat can do to your house. You get things fix in your house but you don't know where it is coming from. Just like us there is sin in our life's that we don't know where it is coming from and we don't know how to fix it. The sinful nature is not us but it is us all. We have the choice to let our sinful nature get the best of us or have the mind of Christ (1 Cor. 2:16). God wants us to think of ourselves as a new creation and we have the Holy Spirit living in us. The more we trust in God and see that he is all that we need we will become Spirit lead our thoughts.


The two things that are in my house is worrying and staying humble. If you have the same troubles I would check out (WORRYING) and (BEING HUMBLE)

Uplifting Conversation


This is a conversation I had with a friend about stress and teens. I am "A" and "B" is my
friend. They didn't want their name in the blog so their "B". Thanks for viewing my blog, it really means a lot.

A:Where is the fun in life?

B:Weekends..Christmas and other breaks haha.

A:No wander kids turn to drugs and crap, that don't have anything to do.

B:For real

A:Makes complete sense now if we didn't have such a boring time at school kids would

be drug free. "GET RID OF SCHOOL" haha lol

A:Hahaha so true!

B:We just need to help kids stay more relaxed and not have drama and we are drugfree.

A:Yeah..they do it when they're stressed and just wanna party

B:I was taking to a girl today and she said she parties to celebrate life. Which is not bad

just wrong the ways they celebrate life.

A:Really? Yeah it's good to celebrate..just not like that

B:Need a different way to celebrate

A:Yeah like worship or prayer.

B: Yeah love worship. Or even just hanging with friends..better than drinking or doing

drugs.

A: Yeah well we have the solution we need to life it and put it to practice.

B:Yeah..like how you worded that

A:Thanks. I told my teachers to take it easy, because they stress us out so much.

B:That's good!

A:They say stuff to motivate us but it stresses us and makes us turn to other things, sin

is just stress being released.

B:Yeah, yeah things teachers say make me think a lot and stresses me out. Nothing

good comes from stress

A:Like stressing does not do anything for you.

B:Oh yeah..definitely agree

A:So the teachers are the cause of the drugs and we are the effect.

B:But is it really right to blame the teachers they are just doing their job and teaching us

A:Yeah, but put less stress on the kids.

B:Yeah, you're right.

A:We will see, I am going to see what one of my teachers thinks about it. To see if they

believe the same thing as you and me.

B:You should, that would be awesome

Please tell your friends, post on Facebook/Twitter, thanks. Thank you for reading!! If
