Living for Christ

Many changes have been taking place in my life since my last blog. I have come to a realization that I really need to start caring about what God would have me do with my life. For a while I have been content with my spiritual walk. What I discovered is that you should never be content or comfortable with your spiritual growth. If you look at the human body or life in general, you will notice that both of them never stop changing. If we grow weary and decide to rest, we will not be doing the will of God and this will lead to God not receiving the glory that He so righteously deserves. Don't get me wrong, God will give you rest but what I am talking about is continually making sure that we do not grow stale but to stay fresh in hearing God and doing His will. It is so important for us to know what God would have us do with our lives. Ultimately how He will be glorified. Recently, I have decided to write Christian music instead of trying to write songs about girls or relationships. I am not saying that songs about those sort of things are bad or shouldn't be heard but I just feel in my life that I should use my talents to write about God and my relationship with Him. Music is a powerful tool that can be used to draw people closer to Him. I feel closer to God when I sing to Him and sing about what He has done in my life. For me, it is a time that I can spend with God other than in prayers when I might feel like I am just talking to Him hoping that He hears my prayer. I just want to live my life for God by loving others and being selfless. I want to be a light unto others where people can see the reality of Jesus in my everyday life.
