How much do you love Jesus

Did you ever ask yourself how much You love Jesus?

We know Jesus loves us and what He did for us, but what do you do for Him?

I think its important to ask that question to yourself because you never hear any sermons about this topic, how much do we love Jesus?

An even better question might be HOW you show that you do. And NO, I am not promoting anything radical here. I am not a radical person, unfortunately. I promote calm, responsible thinking and actions.

So, how do we show it?

Firstly, by committing to Him
Secondly, by doing your daily devotions.
Thirdly, by having faith. Showing faith by believing Him even when it seems impossible. Almost like in a marriage: In good times and in bad times!

Trust Him, He is there for you

The danger of success

There was a time in most of our lives when a simple thing like eating out was a big effort. We had to save up until we had enough money and then only go to places we can afford. To some of us this may have changed. So much so that my wife and I can dine out at least once a week. In many other areas we also do not lack anything. We are blessed and can enjoy life, although we do not consider ourselves as rich. What happens as we grow older is that we gather up more and more stuff. Our furniture increases and becomes more expensive. Our cars are bigger, as is our houses. We get so spoiled with the comfort and luxuries we enjoy that we blind to others needs. We are compassionate and show sympathy, but have lost touch with hurt and pain. The introduction might have been all about money and wealth, but there is more to giving than that. We give our money as we see fit, but is that all? What about our time? What about some effort? Jesus himself said that it is more difficult fo...

Useless

Hebrews 11:6 NIV84 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. If you read this verse it is clear that we need to have faith. The question then becomes: What is faith? According to the dictionary faith is a noun 1. confidence or trust in a person or thing: faith in another's ability.  2. belief that is not based on proof: He had faith that the hypothesis would be substantiated by fact.  3. belief in God or in the doctrines or teachings of religion: the firm faith of the Pilgrims. 4. belief in anything, as a code of ethics, standards of merit, etc.: to be of the same faith with someone concerning honesty. 5. a system of religious belief: the Christian faith; the Jewish faith.  6. the obligation of loyalty or fidelity to a person, promise, engagement, etc.: Failure to appear would be breaking faith.  7. the observance of this obligatio...

Be a legendary Comrade!

There are certain things in life that some of us would never do. Then, for others, they are so standard or essential that they can't do other than fully commit and ensure that they achieve this. What I am specifically thinking about is this past Sunday's Comrades marathon. I knew a few people that went to compete in the race, but I only knew one as a close friend. This was the third time that he went toKwazulu-Natal for the prestigious event. During both the other races he had to withdraw after completing a significant portion of the race because of injury. Although myself, and probably everyone that knows him, were very proud of what he achieved, his goal was not achieved, so he started training soon again. Training takes up probably 11 months of the year. They run half-marathons, marathons, ultra-marathons, and those are only the races. Four or five days a week they run 10 or more kilometres. Rest is maximum one or two days. One of these days it is the Olympics again. Th...
