Most of the time I will pray for all of the people that I am concerned for, the ones that are lost, as we all do. But as I continue to try and draw closer to God every day and learn more about what I need to do to improve, I am stirred by the thoughts that I have been given.<\/p>\n<p>When we go with the tide of the world, we are as the world, and take of its appearance. When we go against the tide of the world, even though the waves crash hard on us, we become separated, and have the ability to finally stand out and be a people that can draw others to God. We often forget that we are with the Master of the sea, the very one who created the waters of the world. Let me try and break this down a little bit more.<\/p>\n<p>You can go and attend all the church services, sing songs, preach messages, teach lessons, blog your ideals, and broadcast your beliefs to the world; but ultimately there is only one true representation of what people will really be drawn by. When it comes right down to it, how you live your life every single day with how you act and what you do is the complete definition of your Christian life.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, there are going to be moments every single day where you will make or break someone\u2019s decision to make Christ their Savior in their life. There are going to also be moments where someone that hasn&#8217;t been where they should be with God continues to stay that way simply because of the behavior they observe from you.<\/p>\n<p>They might see you going through all of the motions of being a &#8220;Christian&#8221;, but where is the virtue that is talked about in the scriptures:<\/p>\n<p><strong>John 4:15-21<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[15] Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.<br \/>\n[16] And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.<br \/>\n[17] Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.<br \/>\n[18] There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.<br \/>\n[19] We love him, because he first loved us.<br \/>\n[20] If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?<br \/>\n[21] And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.<\/p>\n<p>The most important thing to remember in your everyday life is to carry that virtue, to remember that while going and doing all of the things that God has called you to do, while also walking an upright life before him and setting a good example in front of others, that every bit of this must be done with LOVE.<\/p>\n<p>People need to see the virtue of love in our lives, that spirit of charity. For when that love is in our hearts, it will be able to handle all of the situations where anger or impatience would normally try to come in and ruin the example that we try to show. When we go against the tide and fight things with love and patience, with the faith that we are going to make it through, they will be drawn to our belief that we serve a God that will bring us through. That is what draws people, not the fact that we attend church every single time, or that we are efficient or great in all the talents that God has given us. Everyone is good at something; it&#8217;s how people handle situations that make people be drawn to it.<\/p>\n<p>Go against the tide, be a believer in God, and know that the example you show is being watched every single day, and that we are held accountable! It&#8217;s so important to remember this last scripture:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Luke 6:22<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[22] Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man&#8217;s sake.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Click To View PDF\" href=\"http:\/\/www.heartofgraceministries.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/Message-15-Go-Against-The-Tide-02-13-2010.pdf\" target=\"_self\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1958 alignnone\" title=\"Click To View PDF\" src=\"http:\/\/www.heartofgraceministries.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/pdf-icon-100x100.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.heartofgraceministries.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/pdf-icon-100x100.gif 100w, https:\/\/www.heartofgraceministries.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/pdf-icon-100x100-75x75.gif 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 60px) 100vw, 60px\" \/><\/a> <a title=\"Click To View DOC\" href=\"http:\/\/www.heartofgraceministries.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Message-15-Go-Against-The-Tide-02-13-2010.doc\" target=\"_self\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1959\" title=\"Click To View DOC\" src=\"http:\/\/www.heartofgraceministries.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/word_icon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"80\" height=\"60\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Click Here To Listen To The Audio It has been very interesting lately for me to observe conversations of people that I am around to really understand the point of view from someone who walks with unbelief.
