I've been having a hard time keeping in mind the true reason of the season, and I know this will help me keep my focus as well as bring me closer to my Saviour. Who dosen't need that blessing in their lives?
So, you can follow along for the next 14 days and I will keep the posts coming. Here's the challenge:
A Fourteen Day Walk With Christ
The only way that we can really know another person is to walk in their shoes: think what they think, learn what they know, and what they would say, do what they would do.
Each morning, leave enough time to read the scripture references and other items for that day. Read and PONDER what is written. try to keep what you read in mind throughout the day and make a conscious effort to improve in that particular area.
At the end of the day evaluate how you did by writing your thoughts and feelings in a journal. The questions presented can help. Every day has a set of questions followed by scriptures to help you walk with Christ.
Day 1: Am I seeking Christ's help?
Read: Proverbs 3:5-6
Jacob 4:7
Ether 12:27
Ponder: Am I seeking the Lord's help in all I think and do?
How can He help me overcome my weaknesses?
Dear Friend,
I just had to send you a note and tell you how much I love and care about you. I saw you yesterday and you were walking with your friends. I waited all day hoping you would want to talk with me also. It hurt me, but I still love you because I am your friend.
I saw you fall asleep last night, and longed to touch your brow. So I spilled moonlight on your pillow and your face. Again I waited, wanting to rush down so that we could talk. I have so many gifts for you, but you awakened late the next day and rushed off to school. My tears were in the rain.
Today you looked sad, so alone. It makes my heart ache because I love you. Oh, if you would only listen to me. I really love you. I try to tell you in the blue sky and green grass. I whisper it in the leaves on the trees and breathe it in the color of the flowers. I shout it to you in the mountain streams and give the birds love songs to sing, clothe you in warm sunshine and perfume the air with nature scents. My love for you is deeper than the oceans and bigger than the biggest want or need in your heart.
If you only know how much I want to help you. I want you to meet my Father. He wants to help you too. My Father is that way, you know. Just call me, ask me, talk with me. Please, please don't forget me. I have so much to share with you. But I won't hassle you any further. You are free to call me. It's up to you. I'll wait because I love you.
Your brother,
Christ
