Bearing fruit

You know about the parable about the fruit tree and bearing fruit for Christ. People say live a good life so others can see a difference... but most people wont come up and ask you whats different they probably will think your just a good kid with strict parents unless you tell them your a Christian and tell them what Gods doing in your life and the Peace and Joy you get from serving Jesus

If you just live a good life they see the blossoms, and they know your a good tree. When you share your faith, you bear fruit and they know your a christian.

The tortoise and the hare and the tore

You probably know the tortoise and the hare story...where the tortoise and the hare are going to race. The hare gets way ahead and decides that since he's so far ahead, he will take a nap. The slow, but steady tortoise passes him, a couple hours later and continues on to the finish line. The hare wakes up and frantically runs to the finish line on;y to find that the tortoise is already there!

In your christian life, don't just walk along and stop here and there to take in the scenery! Don't run hard and then stop completely...that's even worse!

Run as hard as you can and don't stop!

And by the way... The Tore is a word i made up! Its a cross between the tortoise and the hare.. =)

Job says in job 2:10 that we shouldn't only expect that God will always will give us what want but what we dont want to help us grow

Galatians 1:6

Galatians 1:6 I marvel, that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ, unto another gospel.

Paul marveled, at the Galatians that slid away from their decisions they made for God. Have you been keeping your decisions from camp? If not your just like the Galatians.

the next verse says which is not another though there be some that trouble you and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

Some times someone we know will get us to go against our decisions. Choose friends that will help you not hurt you. Keep your decisions, this has eternal rewards!
