JOURNAL=4-29-15=FAITH WILL BRING YOU HOME “It was in Antioch that the disciples were FIRST called CHRISTIANS” Acts 11:26 WHEN did you first say to yourself, “I AM A CHRISTIAN?” Better yet-WHEN did you first BEGIN to act like a christian-love like a christian-forgive like a christian-BE KIND-like a christian-IS supposed to be? The truth is-as we MATURE-and get older-we should be COMING closer and closer to the PERFECT love that CHRIST lived-that is our challenge-that is our mission-WE SHOULD be placing the WILL of God and the GRACE of Jesus above our own selfish interests and self-centered desires-GOD AND FAMILY-as we mature-should be taking over MORE of our thought processes and ALWAYS be #1 in our minds and hearts BEING A CHRISTIAN is MORE than a membership in a church-more than fellowship with other Christians-it is the TYING of our very hearts and bodies-and our very own crosses with the crosses and life of Christ FAITH is NOT something that we grasp-it the VERY LIFE that we live it is A GREAT DAY to be ALIVE in God's LOVE for us-and a great day recommitting ourselves to being and LIVING like a real-life Christian “Faith will bring you home”   When you are alone When you have Nowhere left to go Faith will bring you home   Faith will Bring you through your trouble And when you’re stuck Down on your luck Faith will bring you home   When you’re lost in the woods When you have no idea Which way to go Faith will bring you home   Faith will Bring you through drowning water Faith will Bring you through a raging fire Faith will bring you through anything And every thing Faith will bring you home   Faith will bring you home     6/03/06        Robert  P.  Wallman       4-28-15
