What if...?

What if?

It may be one of the most, if not the most powerful two worded question in the English language (the other question is: Got milk?:).

Asking What if, changes the entire playing field of any scenario, if you take it seriously. Now please, sit tight with me now, as I ask a series of questions from a Christian point of view. Hopefully they will make you think a little bit.

Before though, I want to encourage you to always strive to see where YOU are in your relationship with Christ. There are always changes to be made and sin to get rid of. Of course, I'll be the first to admit that I'm not perfect. However, that is no excuse to be made. I believe that as Christians we should do everything in our power to honor God with our lives. This way Christ will ultimately be represented through us.

What if...

What if we decided that instead of living an abundant life according to the world, we wanted to live a successful life according to God's standards?

What if we threw mediocrity to the side and took up our CROSSES? Who ever said the way was easy?

What if we stopped acting like the rest of our friends do, and act like Christ instead? Wouldn't that be a better testimony?

What if we actually began to care about our testimony? We would not be coming out of church looking for the nearest bar or hookah joint for "social interaction".

What if we fell on our faces and dared to give God our all?....not just in words done in a special church service...but in action.

What if we dedicated ourselves to rescuing as many people from the very grasps of hell as we could? Instead we waste our time listening and watching things that are an abomination before God.

What if we decided we would rather die reaching out to a country in need, instead of sitting in the comfort of our leather, La-Z-Boys and fancy TV's?

What if, instead of complaining about what we don't have, decide to thank God for what we can give away?

What if we did everything in our power to help those in need, in place of buying the latest True Religion and video game system.

What if we decided to give God more time in our busy schedules...have you ever wondered what kind of change that would bring?

What if we were always grateful and never content with where we are in our relationship with God? We would seek more of Him.

What if you knew that when you get to the judgement seat of God Almighty, when everything has passed away, and you stare in awe at your Creator with tears streaming down His face, He says,

"Who are you?"

Our testimonies would be different.
