Nature and Worship

(This post is based off of one of my older Grace Inspirations letters. These letters were sent to my neighbors. They were the beginning of Grace Inspirations blog.) Nature may seem completely separate from worship. Before I tell you how they go hand in hand, let's look at worship. Worship may seem like a very religious thing to do. You go to church, and worship God through singing songs. Actually, many people, who aren’t necessarily “Christians” do it everyday. But you are capable of worshiping other things, not just God. And, worship can take many forms. What other things am I capable of worshiping? When I ask this question, you probably think you know where I’m going with this. You can worship other gods like Thor, but you need to only worship God. But actually, you are capable of worshiping just about anything, not just God and Thor. Yes, worshiping other gods is something you can worship, and it is true that you need to stay on track. But, really anything you put ...

Who Is Jesus?

In this blog, the names Jesus, Messiah, Savior, and Christ will be mentioned often.   Today, I will be writing about who Jesus is. For some people this may seem like a ridiculous question. But after reading this, the name Jesus may seem a little more complex than you thought. Jesus was a man who lived on earth a couple thousand years ago. His mother was Mary and his father was Joseph. Yep. It’s the old Christmas story. Even though Joseph is called his father, he really wasn’t. You see, God worked a miracle through Mary. She was a virgin. Part 2 of Jesus’s life is when he is an adult. He preached everywhere he went and performed miracles that healed the sick. This sounds great to us, but there were people called Pharisees that were sort of like priests. They literally hated Jesus and everything he did. Why?

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my blog! Here you'll find encouragement to share the Gospel with others, as well as posts to deepen your love for Christ. Grace Inspirations started with letters. I would send "sermons" through letters to my neighbors. God put it on my heart through some very special people to start a blog. And here we are! My posts come from many different places. Sometimes they will be based off of things I've seen or heard. Or maybe something I've come to realize. They can come from one of my old notebooks, or maybe even some of those letters I sent to my neighbors! I try to post as often as I can. As I am a student, I have a busy life. But it's not really on my time-table. It's when God shows me something I need to write. I am always glad to share what God shows me with you! I am learning right along with you! Whether you have been a believer for years or you have never heard the Gospel, this blog is for you! I write to everyone and I enjoy e...
