so i have read that i need to have a spiritual reminder of what im doing which i do everyday, i listen to christian music such as, rock, gospel, or.....DAVID PHELPS EEEEKKKKKK!!!!!! LOL anyways i guess this means i need to read the bible more often and listen to the music louder and sing along with the tune. If any of you have some ideas of what else i could do let me know

Thanks

dmorrow...Spiritual reminders can be lots of things...from notes laid around for you to read them...to the music and reading the Bible as you mentioned...to even coming here to the Oasis and reading or chatting. These Spiritual reminders will help you stay accountable to God and not letting temptation have an inch. Keep running the race.

Praying for you still

Take care and God Bless

Hello Derek *Wave*

Object are what reminds you to connect to God.
The objects aren't what's important but the connection.
Bring your thoughts to him. Talk to him about things that seem not so important. I'd often talk to God about what I should fix for dinner and how to prepare it while doing the lunch dishes.

I'm loving the idea you have put down so far. Especially concentrating on the words of the songs. Sing them to him. He would love it. And Angels love music. :)

hey dmorrow, welcome again, to Oasis!

i just wanted to add that the Holy Spirit is your friend, your comforter, your teacher, your councelor, and so much more. The more time you spend with a friend, the better you get to know them..the same is true with the Lord. Talk to Him as if He is sitting right there with you cuz He is. He is within you. Talk to Him and share with Him what you would with a best friend and He will show you more and more of Himself, too...especially how much He loves you.

Im praying with you, my brother in Jesus.

in Jesus,
luv momo *Halo*

Hi brother derek :) step 2 yay *angelbounce*

Well u know, im not sure when it comes to reading the Bible each day, that quantity is the way to go. What i mean is, sometimes we aim to read more, and end up understanding less lol Cuz we take in too much too fast, and dont truly get a grasp or revelation from the Holy Spirit of what we have read. So dont think in terms of how much you read, but rather gaining understanding as you read. Each of us are different, so as you delve into a deeper study of the Bible you will begin to understand better what works well for you.

Fellowship with other Christians is also a really cool way to help us grow in faith.

So whatever you choose to do, make sure you do something, as there can be no change without action.

Keep at it brother :) Jesus loves you
