Reflection.

Durning class we talked about "original sin" from Romans 5. A defination is The tendency to sin innate in all human beings, held to be inherited from Adam in consequence of the Fall.  

Some christian theology says that when a child is born they have the sin of adam on them and baptizes them as infants. 

Jesus told the children to come and said they were innocent. Then we started to talk about that children do not know what right or wrong is at a young age.  This got me thinking. I watch a lot of tv.  In the last week I have watched Law and Order: SVU. On one episode they asked a child if she knew the difference between wrong and right. 

Adam's sin is the reason we are not all in the garden.  In 1 John 3:8 says devil was sinning from the beginning.

I thought this lesson tied into the sermon.

We aren't applicable because Jesus died alone. We are not allowed to apply to the kingdom because of what we won't give up things but Jesus made a way.

I hope the words stick in my head. "We aren't applicable because Jesus died alone."

Romans 5:7-8

7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

God is in Control

For the last week my mom and I have been looking at a Saturn to buy. We just bought this morning ready to be done with the salesman.  As we were talking to the guy doing the money guy, who was selling the car. He told us about the advantages of getting a loan the car. When my mom said she did not want it.

The guys said,"I have done my job by telling you about it. There is a reason God put you in my office today. He in control."

This struck me from the moment he said it.

"He is in Control"  God is in control.

This is something I have been telling myself and giving him control. I believe there is a rhyme or reason things happen. However also believe when you make a choice on your own he makes a way to make it right.

"God is in Control"

He controls the weather and everything in nature.
"Do you know how God controls the clouds and makes his lightning flash?" - Job 37:15

I feel like the car guy was a blessing to day. Reminding me who is in control when I dont know the unsure things around.

Changes

As a person grows up they change, some of these changes are noticeable and some are not. We all know this its been explained our entire lives. A year can do some one a world of good and they grow right before your eyes. Physically, Mentally, and Spiritually changes happens. 

I noticed other people change but never myself truly, until recently. I am approaching my 21st year walking the earth. I am baptized in the blood of Christ and sadly I do not remember the day that I was really baptized. I shall tell the story another time. 

In the last few months I have seen changes or noticed what I used to do and do not have the desire to do them any longer. Things that were habits that might have been the best for me. 

Recently, I have the need and the desire to read my bible more and pray often. I have prayed a lot for others and not as much just for me. 

I do not know what to say anymore. Here a verse. 

And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 Corinthians 3:18

Good Night,
