Who are you living for?

yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo!
God has been putting this on my heart to write about so... here it is guys,
If we are living for God, we are NOT living for the world.
I don't really think everyone knows what this mean, you know? Just because we're taught it at En Fuego doesn't mean that everyone else is taught it.

Men and women of Christ! Just because you go to church, doesnt make you a Christian... Just like sitting in a garage doesn't make you a car and standing in a cornfield doesn't make you a cornstalk.

1 peter 2:9 says, "But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light."

guyz, we are stinking CHOSEN by Him to live for Him!! We were chosen to live in His light. God has big expectations for us and one of them is to not live like the rest of the world. Christians are supposed to be different from the rest of the world and to stand out because we are filled with Him and desire Him and not the world.

Romans 12:2 says, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is— his good, pleasing and perfect will."

DO NOT CONFORM TO THE PATTERN OF THIS WORLD!!!!.

When I first became a Christian, I thought all I had to do was go to church and tell everyone I love God, and that would be enough. But I soon learned that it's not enough. Not even close. I have lost all of my "bestfriends" that aren't saved. Not because I don't hangout with people who don't love Jesus, because I do, but because I don't have a strong, stable ground yet. If i'm around people that are partying or gossiping or doing something they aren't supposed to be, odds are i'm going to be doing it with them. I don't need that junk, and neither do you!
"you are who you hangout with"

If you can't give up your friends to have a better relationship with our everlasting Father, then who are you really living for?

Christians, we were made to be role models and some of us.. aren't doing such a hot job at it. How are you going to tell people about the Gospel when you're not even living by it?

The way you act, and talk, and the things you do, really does affect the people around you.
If you're cussing all the time and partying and having sex before you are married, who are you living for, the world or for God?

If you're filling your ears with crap like eminem and lilwayne and secular music and anything that isn't prasing Him, who are you living for, the world or for God?
especially if you are posting this crap on facebook or twitter or something like that, what are new Christians, or non Christians going to think about Christianity? What are you teaching the people you're friends with. Gods word, or the worlds word?


If you are gossiping who are you living for?
If you put your girlfriend/boyfriend before anything else, even your relationship with God, who are you living for?

IF YOU ARE DATING SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE A RELATIONSHIP OR CARE ABOUT GOD, who the heck are you living for?
if you're in a relationship with someone who doesn't have a relationship with God, or who is more immature spiritually then you, then you will never be able to grow in your relationship with Him, you will always be held back and stuck on their level.
Who are you living for?

If you jump from relationship to relationship and just keep seeking yourself in other people, what is that doing to your relationship with God?


this blog is not very good and it jumps all over the place, but this stuff had to be put out on the table.
It's time to start living for Him and not for the world.
It's time to be a role model. Crack open the bible and learn how to be one.
