Genesis 6:5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

One of the biggest problems that we have is that we are always thinking of bad things. When we grow up we see bad things, we hear bad things and we have bad things happen to us; so naturally we also get involved with bad things and then our thoughts always seem to go back to those bad things… even when we are trying to be good, those bad thoughts still come back…

Those bad thoughts influence our lives! The more we think of them the more we are likely to give in to them. We need God with us so that we can break free of those continual bad thoughts…

James 1:14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.

How do you catch a fish? You place some bait of some kind on a hook, the fish takes one look at that juicy worm (or whatever) and take a huge bite without thinking about what could happen! Bam! No more fish…

We are just like that – we take one look at some things in life and jump in without thinking. Bam! End of us…

We need to think about what God tells us, what He warns us against, and where He wants us to go. He uses the bible and other Christians to tell you these things. You have the choice as to whether you listen or not…

John 1:3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.

When Jesus came to be with us on earth He also made sure that we were reminded that God was our Creator and that everything consists because of Him and through Him alone.

And yes, that does mean He made those mean people and those beautiful people; but each of those people had a choice to make – to decide if they wanted to be mean and horrible, or not.

What you choose is going to affect you for the rest of your life and it is not a choice that you should take lightly; but God will always be ready to help you decide when you ask Him to help you…

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

You may be starting to ask “Who is this God that loves me?”

Our bibles tell us that He is the creator of everything; which is not what you may be told at school because scientists will try to convince you that we are related to monkeys.

Personally I would rather believe that there is a God out there that is so AWESOME that He was able to create everything just because He wanted a place for us to live and that He also created those monkeys and even those scientists…

That choice should be yours to make and not a decision that someone else forces you to “think”…
