What would we be without God?


What would we be without God? What would you be without Him? What would I be without Him? This is a question everyone can and should answer sometime in their  lives, however, it is a question only I can answer for myself and one only you could  answer for yourself. It is so hard to explain the rush of amazement that ocurrs when one realizes; really realizes, who one would be when God is taken out of the picture. Think about this, when we feel alone, we really would be, when we needed help, no one would step up to the plate. Who would give us guidance? Most importantly, if God was not there, no one would have been willing to die for our sins and no one would have been strong enough to overcome, not only temptation, but also death itself!
When God is taken out of the picture who would be the reason not to sin? Any morality that the world has left in it would be tossed out the window. Who would hold us accountable? No one.

So what would we be without God? Generally we would be thoughtless and alone in our sins..what about individually? What weaknesses do you have? What power would give you strength to go on in tough times? We are alone....humans only care so much, without the compassion for our neighbor that God showed us, we really wouldn't care what happened to those around us. So without God we would in one simple word be 'lost'.  Please think about this: who would you be without the knowledge that God is there with you?

This question (which I hope you examined and thought about) leads to two points: A: God is there! (yay r?!) And we are *not* alone..He is forgiving and loving and wants us to honor Him...we have to realize and face who we would be without Him to realize who we are and how changed we are with Him. How much of an impact He makes in our lives is truly eye opening to the to the fact of how much we really need Him. It is because of Him that we have the ability to be saved!

This beings me to pt B: Have you made that decision? If you haven't, why not? Have you ever even heard this before? If not please read: http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/how_to_be_saved.html entirely! If so, I praise God for it! (pls note: u r not saved if you consider yourself a Christian..you are only saved based on asking to be because you know your sins and know you can't get to heaven on your own...as simple as that! If there is any doubt, please read what this site has to say for yourself, better safe that sorry..you only have one life..you can't relive it or a make decision once that life is over) Moving back to the question: "Have you ever even heard this before?" (Which if you have any questions..please feel free to contact me with them!) If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior you know what he is and what He does, but do you know that many do not and have never heard of this before? I am sure you have thought about that. But please think about this: Just as you saw yourself without the knowledge of God, so many people see everyday as a reality, not just a mental picture. Imagine if you had to go through the earlier image in your mind on a daily basis as a reality? This is happening here, now, to millions upon millions of people all over the world..maybe even your next door neighbor or family member. As Christians we have the responsibility to take the good news we have received and pass it on to others. We have come into the light now we need to pass that light on to others whose world is filled with darkness...their eyes will never see light if we don't go out as called and cure their blindness. This is an even more important truth than the earlier one..a truth that we must pass on. Don't let others pass on without knowing what it is like to never be alone and to be forgiven of all sin..spread the joy of God, for without Him, what would we be?
