Honesty and Commitment.

       Being honest with yourself means that you manifest total commitment to any course you have taken no matter what. But the Commitment naturally should flow from an inner fountain of energy otherwise called FAITH. Faith comes as a result of KNOWING someone or something without any shadow of doubt. 
      Are you a Christian? The answer you give to this question will emanet from two sources; 1. The mouth 2 The heart. The answer that comes from the mouth is just like lipstick or perfume, or even a mask that covers the real. The answer that comes from the heart is the real you and the real you is established on truth. Truth builds confidence and the knowledge of truth is a lifetime endeavour that comes from interaction with the source of that knowledge. Jesus Christ said He is the way the Truth and the Life therefore for us to know Him better we MUST walk with Him daily. Walking with Jesus daily means reading the bible, talking to him, listening to Him as He speaks through the bible and through the Holy Spirit who indwells us. Many people QUIETLY struggle to put their trust in Jesus because they do not know whether it is true that Jesus really died and rose again.
      Selwyn Hughes wrote that acceptance of the fact that Christ rose from the dead is a basic precondition for being a Christian. "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe ... that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved" (Rom. 10:9,) If you don't believe and truly believe you are not a Christian. There is no middle ground on this issue. YOU MUST TAKE A STAND and we must stop being like the Kenyan politicians who today are for the government tomorrow are in the opposition and vice versa.
      If you believe please let us pray Father, if I am not sure of the resurrection how can I be sure I am saved? However, I am sure, for I live in a resurrected Christ. Since He was resurrected, I know I shall be too. Death has been conquered. Hallelujah !https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkMapZB8qMk

One of my favorite hymns. This song is from the album, "Together for the Gospel Live" from Sovereign Grace Music.
