FOOTPRINTS & SHADOWS

Well i know it's been awhile since i blogged but i have been really busy! SO WHILE i have the chance i will try to get you all caught up on what i have been learning from God's classroom.
You are probably wondering why i titled this blog footprints & Shadows well that is what the Lord is teaching me this year. Whoa wait a second! you lost me stepho, allright i'll expalin
Ps. 91:1 says "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High abide under the shadow of the Almighty" well that is what i am trying to apply to my life, being God's shadow and not the shadow of others because when i am the shadow of other people are not seeing Christ in me but rather seeing the person i am shadowing . If i want to be qualify to be called a Christian and not just another believer then i must work on being God's shadow. you see God's shadow is bigger then me so when i am in his shadow people will see Christ and not stepho
well that is the first lesson i am learning the second one is just beginning, IPeter 2:21 says "For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us leaving us an example that we should follow his steps " if i am going to follow God to be his shadow then i have to follow His footprints that He gave. So stephen you ask how
do you do that when God's footprints are so Huge [illustration the big footprint] well by living in a manner of life that reflects God's life here on earth [II Timothy 3:10]
i will leave you with these two qoutes that i heard Pastor Sexton say last night at church
"does my actions and way of life qualify me to be called a Christian or just a Believer"
"misunderstanding is not the hardest thing to fight against but misrepresenting someone is "
Well Got to go stepho
