I've found a friend who died for me

Did character study for Rahab and Paul(also known as Saul) . I was super encouraged when I heard about Rahab . Because okay , it'a really hard to explain if you haven't read the storey in the bible . But anyway , Rahab had such a strong faith and she never doubt in God for a second and she really trusted God 100% . She didn't let her social status or occupation or nationality get in her way of wanting to build a relationship with God . She didn't care how people looked at her and she had the courage to let go of her past and pursued a new faith . And faith it's a decision it's not a feeling or what and it wasn't easy for her . Because she had to risked her life and she did something when she believed in God .
James 2:26
As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.
After believing in God she risked her life for the Jew spies and she helped God's people . I really think that it's true because if we believe that God exsists but we don't show it then who is going to believe us ? God judges our whole life and not just one super big mistake/sin we committed and yes but that doesn't mean we go round killing people okay but instead don't take God's grace for granted but really cherish the chances He gives us . Repent and seek for forgiveness and if you see your friends sinning or just doing the wrong thing tell them nicely if they don't want to listen to you don't force them or stirr up a fight yeah you'll feel bad but you already tried warning them if they don't want to take the warning what can we do ? Just pray for them and ask God to forgive them . And we need to patient not everything comes in an instant and just really think about if we're trusting in God or not . And really the choice is yours .
Paul he wasn't always a believer/follower of christ . He was raised up as a Pharisee(is like having PHD of the bible and the Law) . And he used to persecute many christians and even went round finding people to imprison or kill . But one day he had an encouter with Jesus that changed his life and he changed many people's life . God called him to start his minitry to the Gentiles(Gentiles are people who aren't of Jewish origin) . He had to go through many trials because people put charges against him when he told them that the was going to preach the gospel to the Gentiles . He went through a lot of hardship I don't think many of us can manage to persevere and Paul was very determined he never gave up and he remembered why he was doing it . Always going back to the core , just like Nehemiah . Everyone was against him but he stood firm and wasn't shaken he was willing to be judged because he knew he did nothing wrong but I know I hate being accused for something I did not even do . And now of days my mother is getting more unhappy about the fact that I go out for too much church activities . But I'm trying not to be affected by it . He failed many times but he still continued on , he had that never dying faith which I really admire , most of us would really be affected if we keep failing and we won't be stronger and stronger each time we fail . But he got stronger and stronger , he was always remebering God and knew that God wants him to fail and we really need God's word to be encouraged and if you feel 'chui' just ask God for strength and have a motivation to keep going . And God is always with you doing the things you do , He's always there whether you know it or not . And you need to change yourself instead of changing the people around you , speak their love language . If your friends keep rejecting God then just keep trying to share your testimony . Don't just plunge into God but try talking it out smoothly . And just ask God for the wisdom and the chance to share to them . Never give up unless God says so . And God will bring people into your life to help you and encourage you . And are you still as excited or as passionate when you share about your life changing exprience ? And how do you apply what you've learnt ?
Recently a lot of rejection but I have a friend who really encouraged me because she said she wanted to know God . And I felt happy because she's my friend and she's going to be saved . And I explained to her and tried to push her to really want to come and know God and have a relationship with Him . And when people are curious keep talking to them about God maybe just maybe they'll want to accept Christ into their lives . Really think that I'm growing and yes it's not easy but since when it was ever easy ? Have lifegroup tomorrow need to plan out a skit .
