we need help

By christianityNo Comments

I wrote about my experience with drunk young lady few days ago. When I thought more about it that night – the thing that got stuck in my mind most was that she was still trying to run from us – I realized for myself one interesting think.

Sometimes it looks the same at our spiritual life. We are sick, we are in horrible condition but we still refuse the help from the outside because we are convinced (drunk with self-confidence) that we’re gonna  help ourselves the best way, that we are going to manage it. Or we just don’t admit that there could be any problem here. How it ends finally? We crush our mouth. Sometimes just a little sometimes more, but sometimes it might cost us even our marriage…

dog’s excrements

By christianityNo Comments

Walking the dog has its unquestionable advantages. I just can’t catch in to take he notice of the surroundings when I go anywhere without the dog – at least I live that way in the city. But you can stop by with the dog. You have much more time to think while the dog smells around or marks his territory. You start to observe the details more which you wouldn’t see without the dog – not just the nice ones but also the ugly gross ones too. You can see the beautiful flowers but also uncleaned and tread-ed dogs poops.

Global Share the Bible Day

By christianityNo Comments

Hopefully by now, you know that we love the Bible at YouVersion. We want to make the Bible as visible as possible this Christmas to remind the world of its true meaning: the gift of God’s only Son. We’re declaring all day Saturday, December 25, “Global Share the Bible Day.” We’d love for you to join us!

Spread the word. Please start letting your friends and acquaintances know now what we’ll be up to together. Invite as many people to join us December 25 as you can. Use word of mouth and online conversation. But first, let’s sweeten the deal: As a little “extra” incentive to get the word out, we’re excited to be able to offer a few lucky winners who post it online their choice between an iPad, an iPhone 4, or a Nexus S! (Check here for details.)

Set some reminders. All day on December 25, take every opportunity to share anything you love about the Bible. Tweet. Update your Facebook status. Change your blog or website home page. Visit with someone you meet. Just share! Here are a few ideas for things you could share:
  • Your faith. What has God done in your life? 
  • Your favorite verse. Why? What does it mean to you? 
  • The Christmas story. What’s your favorite part? 
  • The Bible App. Tell people how they can get the Bible for free. (Hint: Send them to youversion.com/download.)
But these are only suggestions. Don’t stop there. Wherever you are on December 25, whatever you’re doing, share what’s special to you about the Bible. If you share online (especially Twitter), please include the hash tag #Bible. The Bible App makes it really easy to share. But remember: This isn’t about the Bible App. It’s all about the Bible.

On December 25, let’s draw as much attention as we can to the Bible—the story of God’s love for us.

the same

By christianity, personalNo Comments

I guess that having a dog is kind of God’s plan for me :-) It seams that he wants to give me some time to think and pray. I cannot see another reason.

Today’s evening walk made it’s point :-) I remembered the verse from Bible from book Hebrews 13:8 and I have to admit that this memory was really nourishing and resurgent. Read More

seek first…

By christianityNo Comments

I’m reminding myself with one verse from Bible (Mat. 6:25). It is written there that we should first seek the Kingdom of Heaven and it’s rightness and the rest of the stuff would be handed over to us. Watt is the stuff? Jesus talks about it in the previous verse. That are the things that we need it for life.

Sometimes I like to compare. Sometimes I say myself that it would be great to have a lot of money, that it would be great to be famous and respected. Yes, it would be good, but it is not the first thing I should be thinking of, it is not the most important stuff. The most important in my life should be God’s Kingdom and His righteousness.

It sounds abstract but I guess that slowly but surely I’m finding out some particular goals which seem to apply for my life:

Do not be afraid of the future but have faith that God is involved. Do not look at how much the others have but be thankful for what you have. The stuff you do, do at the best way – at work, at home at church – do not cheat at it.

I guess that when I manage it I move some more steps further and would be given more. It is worth it. No money can replace the Holy Spirit in the long therm perspective.

not confrontation but contrast

By christianityNo Comments

I remembered one thought from last Sunday’s message from our church. It was said by Danda Fafr (Chief of the Brethren Church Council) in the context of installation (it means put into service) of our new elected pastor Ales Kratochvil. It talks about how as we Christians should be different from “normal” people. I was very impressed by it because it talks about the essence of the Christianity and it sounds: “Not confrontation but contrast.”

We shouldn’t differ in the way of criticizing and attacking everything all the time, in the way that we would argue with everybody about what is true and what is not. We should differ so that from the essence of our life-style we are different. We should differ in what we do and say in one. The Christianity is a must-see value in every moment.

It is tough task but achievable and I thing that if we take it serious we would be more successful that if we stay with arguing…

church buildings

By christianityNo Comments

Church buildings (churches :-) ) were for very long time (mostly for whole middle age and most of the modern times) clearly recognizable and everybody knew that this particular building is a church. But this clear difference started to disappear in the society of the 20th century. It seams for me like return to the origins.

At the beginning of the church Christians met where ever it was possible. In the market places, cellars etc. One part still these days meets at the church buildings which were built centuries ago but the others moved to old industrial buildings, schools, multi-functional buildings etc. We are meeting in old church and I think that we should move somewhere else for very long time because the church it self is very nice but the other parts doesn’t satisfy me at all.
