The Question: “What I like best about living for God is…”
The Answer: “What I like best about living for God is that His mercies are new every morning. To borrow words from a recent sermon I heard - you feel different about yourself when you are wearing new shoes or sporting a new suit. Why wouldn't you feel a hundred times better about the mercies of God? Our God is amazing!” The Answer: “As life and circumstances continually drive you up a corner, at the same time you will always discover new sides to living for God as you (when you) learn to walk in faith, i.e., having to totally depend on God, making Him real in your everyday-life. Living for God becomes a privilege and a joy. Amen!” The Answer: “Peace when I place my trust in Him.” The Answer: “Knowing that when the world hits me hard, I have Someone to comfort me.” The Answer: “Peace - no matter how big the storm!” The Answer: “His touch and when He speaks to me. Also how He helps me with life's problems, strengthens me, heals and always makes a way. I can't imagine life without God. Would I even be alive today if it weren't for Him?” The Answer: “The joy that I feel and just the blessings that God gives me each day. The freedom of worship that I have. It's just great - everything about living for God is great!” The Answer: “Sometimes it feels that I am all alone in this world and if anybody notices me, it is because of what I am or what I do, but being an Apostolic and living for God gives me the feeling that I am never alone.” The Answer: “One of my non-church friends once commented that she envied me because my life was uncomplicated. Upon reflection, I realized that living my life for God precludes the stress of trying to cover up for a lie, explain an extramarital affair, remember what I did that was so awful while I was drunk, running from the police while dealing drugs...I could go on and on! I am thankful for the benefits of an uncomplicated godly life.” The Answer: “His after-death benefits!” The Answer: “Peace like a river. Having a purpose. Knowing there is more to life than just this life. Having something intangible, something transcendent. Experiencing what Sartre and Hemmingway were waiting for.” The Answer: “Knowing if I don't wake up, I'm already ‘over there.’” The Answer: “Knowing He is my constant companion. Experiencing His presence, knowing His understanding is infinite. Trusting my life to Him and seeing the impossible happen through me as I seek to be His vessel to my world.” The Answer: “Peace of mind in any situation.” The Answer: “He is always there and He takes care of me even when I don't deserve it.” The Answer: “It never gets boring; there is something new every day.” The Answer: “The peace I have through every storm. But not only in the storm, I have peace to enjoy the good times, too. I don’t have to worry about what’s coming next or look over my shoulder or live with horrible guilt. I have peace to enjoy my life and peace to make it through life. Wonderful peace!” The Answer: “Him.” The Answer: “His daily blessing of the breath of life.” The Answer: “It's a lot of fun - and easy - especially when I compare my life to that of my non-churched friends from school and work.” The Answer: “The security of knowing that with God I am never alone, He is always there in the good times and the bad times.” The Answer: “Everything! Even when there are difficult times and trials that I don't think I can bear, I know my reward will be at the end, so I just want to live sold out knowing my reward is not now but when I meet Jesus face to face! I love this truth!” The Answer: “There are really too many to name, but the peace of God and knowing that you are never alone are amazing.” The Answer: “The peace. The ultimate peace in knowing my Creator is my Savior is my best Friend. I am never alone, never without help or hope. That amounts to great peace.” The Answer: “Whenever I need someone to talk to, God is always there to listen!” The Answer: “Enjoying the benefits from everyday life.... health, finances, good relationships. Knowing the answer to most of life's tough situations - that is Jesus. Everyone needs a great person in his life. As a Christian I have hundreds of great people that encourage me and set an example for me. Wow! I am really that rich?” The Answer: “Having a best buddy by my side every second of the day!” The Answer: “The family and the fellowship that comes with being a part of a church.” The Answer: “When He talks to me and moves on me. The fact that the Creator of the universe would not only hear my prayers, but respond to them and also live in me is humbling and amazing.” The Answer: “Purpose, No Fear, Destination, Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, Compassion, Vision, Power.” The Answer: “The everyday. The details that have woven my life into something unique and rare. The joy that I go to sleep with, the hope that I wake up to. What I like best is falling in love with Him over and over again.” The Answer: “Free health care and life insurance.” The Answer: “Being able to tell others about Him and teaching Bible studies. It is the best feeling ever!”
