Baby's responding

This day seems like a continuation of the day before. After taking a shower I've done nothing. I enjoyed my day though.

Later I'll continue to read Bible stories to my baby. The topic for today is about who is the main reason why people become disobedient to God. I'll write about it on this blog later.

Meanwhile, I am happy to tell you that my baby is responding to our reading. During the 15-minute reading, he/she always let me know that he's aware by moving or kicking everytime.

"Keep Walking"

After a hectic week, I have an opportunity to see my doctor and be updated on what's going on inside 'there'. I am quite happy that the vital signs, my weight gains, blood pressure and the physical changes are positive and normal. She even hinted that my baby is 80% Boy which added to our excitement, for even up to now we haven't come up with a girl's name aside from Ethan which is a boy's.

I have the time also to rest up a bit and recharge my spirit because when we come home after the class last Thursday, I'm feeling a little bit of fatigue and burnout. But now I think I regain my strength and will to continue. As Johnnie Walker used to say, "Keep Walking".

Continuation..

Those who obeyed Jesus they were safe. They were far away from Jerusalem. So they were not hurt. Obedience protected them..

If we love God we need to obey him too. He give the HOly Scripture, The Bible to protect us. Today, many people don't believe in the Bible because it was written by man. According to 2 Timothy 3:16-17, all scriptures is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, that the man of God maybe fully competent, completely equipped for every goodwork.

That's it for this evening..

Obedience Protects You

When we obey God, we are showing that we love him. The Bible says: "This is what the love of God means, that we observe his commandments." (1John 5:3). So, we all need to obey God.

Let me tell you a story about some people whose lives were saved because they were obedient. These people lived long ago in the big city of Jerusalem. Most of the people in that city did not listen to God, so Jesus warned them that God was going to have their city destroyed. Jesus also told them how they could escape if they loved what was rigth. He said: When you see armies all around Jerusalem, you will know that its destruction is getting near. Then is the time to get out of Jerusalem and run to the mountains.

Well, just as Jesus said, armies came to attack Jerusalem. The armies of Rome camped all around it. Then, for some reason, the soldiers left. Most of the people thought that the danger had passed. So they stayed in the city. Those who really believed in Jesus left their homes and ran to the mountains far away from Jerusalem.

For a whole year, nothing happened to Jerusalem. In the second and third year nothing happened. So, some people may have thought that those who had left the city were foolish. But then in the fourth year, the Roman armies came back. They camped again in the city. Now it was too late to escape. The armies destroyed the city and most of the people inside it died and the rest were taken prisoner.

But what happened to those who had obeyed Jesus?
That is the next topic tomorrow, hehehe..

Have a nice sleep!

A Fine Lesson..

We will be like the Great Teacher too and serve other people. We can all do things for others. This will make them happy. But best of all, it will make Jesus and his Father happy.

Yes, it is not hard to serve other people. If you watch, you will see many things that you can do for others. For example in school, we can serve other people. It might be our classmates or our teacher. Like holding the door open for someone is a kind service and many many things. At times, we will find that people will not thank us for serving them but this should not stop us from doing good like Jesus did..

So let's never hold back from serving other people. Always follow Jesus example.

The Great Teacher

Jesus wanted his disciples and his followers to serve one another. He did not want them to think only about themselves. He did not want them to think that they were so important that others should always serve them. He wanted them to be willing to serve others.

So, He did a good example. While they were all having a meal together, Jesus got up from the table and took off his outer garments. Picking up a towel, he wrapped it around his waist. Then he took a wash basin and put water into it. As they watched, Jesus went around to all of them, bent down, and washed their feet. Then he dried their feet with the towel.

What is a fine lesson? I will continue it tomorrow..

Why is Jesus Being Put in a Manger?

Jehovah did something miracle. He took the life of His son from heaven and put it inside Mary. As a result, Jesus began to grow inside of Mary just as other babies grow inside of their mothers.
When the time came for Jesus to be born, Mary and Joseph were visiting the city of Bethlehem. But it was a full of people. They had to stay in a place where animals were kept. There Mary gave birth, and Jesus was put in a manger. A manger is a place that holds feed for cows and other animals to eat.

The angel said at Luke 2:10, 11: 'Look! I am telling you good news that will make people happy. Today someone was born who will save the people. Suddenly, other angels in heaven joined the first angel in praising God. 'Glory to God', the angel sang "and upon earth peace among men of goodwill". We can read that at Luke 2: 12-24.

Later, Joseph amd Mary took Jesus to the city of Nazareth. That is where Jesus grew up. When he was grown, he began his great teaching work. Jesus was willing to do work because Jesus loved his heavenly Father very much.

I want my baby to please Jehovah God too when he grow up..
