1 Peter 3:15
"Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if someone asks about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it."
To me, this verse brings up two questions for the Christian person:
1.) Are you sitting on the throne of your life or is Christ?
I think this is a huge struggle for us because it is so easy for us to sit on the throne of our own life. We make decisions daily that we never get God's approval or thoughts on because we think we know what is best for our lives. If we really understood that God always has a bigger plan for us then we would never want to sit on the throne of our own lives.
2.) Could you, at a momment's notice, share the hope that you have inside of you?
The real question is why wouldn't you share the hope inside of you? We are so quick to share stories (that normally have no eternal impact) with our friends and family but not so quick to share Christ with someone. If you went out and got a new car, you would go tell everyone. We should do the same thing with our salvation. We should shout it from the rooftops.
Our challenge today is to get off the throne our our lives and share the hope we have inside of us with others.

Robbie and I were wondering when the last time the Scriptures spoke to you...because you haven't been on here in a while. :)
We are considering dropping you from our "Friends BLOG's" links if you don't do better than this!
