1 Peter 3:15

"But in your hearts, set apart Christ as LORD. Always be prepared to give an answer...for the hope that you have."


God has been teaching me a lot about finding answers lately. I never realized how much I believe but can't back up completely. I form a lot of opinions and stand up for them without I strong enough foundation to back it up. I know that there is a reason why I feel the way I do about certain situations. I just need to make the effort to step back and focus on what it is. God has filled this world with so many amazing things and He wants us to enjoy them. But, He truly desires for us to enjoy them through His eyes. Jesus was such an amazing example because He wasn't afraid to share what He knew was the truth. He shared His saving grace with everyone, answered questions, and led by example. Now of course, it was probably a lot easier for Jesus to answer questions because He knew everything. But, God calls us to be follwers of Christ. That means we need to be constantly learning so we can build a strong foundation in Christ. "Because the Bible says so" is an easy but not a good enough answer. We must dig deeper into our faith if we want to bring others to Christ. Live a set apart life. People will see your example and wonder why you are the way you are. Be ready to give answers!
