Common Dilemmas Among Christians

499 Words2 Pages

I see a common dilemma among Christians. When I get together with my friends for coffee and play dates, the conversation most always will hit on our relationship with God and prayer life. The dilemma being that as moms we are so busy and we struggle to have the time to spend in God's word. I have gotten creative in saturating my life with scripture. You do not have to set out an hour of your time to read the bible. I'm a mom. I know the hectic schedule we have. Let's not get discouraged with our overwhelming schedule, but let's get creative!

Even if you have to get up a little earlier to have that alone time with God. Get a bible study and/or a devotional to help guide you. I can see a big difference in my daily life when I make this happen. Going before God and laying down everything and picking up His peace, love and strength is the best thing you can do on a daily basis. …show more content…

I have found beautiful scripture art and framed it or taped it about my house. Every time I go into my bathroom I see the scripture art that I have printed off and taped around my bathroom mirror. My living room has a framed art piece with scripture and my fridge has several on it

This area they inhabited is now called, the United States. In this time of great change, the colonists had to completely formulate a new government.

Reid and Hogan make very clear the pitfalls that preachers can find themselves in.

Many of the lessons that I have learned and that have stuck with me were lessons that I have learned in the midst of a struggle, and sometime through positive situations. I personally believe that in my life I can hear God most clearly when I am most vulnerable; such vulnerability comes from the situations that I have experienced suffrage or loneness. Sadly, but honestly when I am happy I don’t long for answers to as many question as I do when I am upset or angry. But it is when I am sad or angered that I feel God’s presence comforting me and that is when I release my fear unto him and find peace.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s piece, “The Introduction to The Women’s Bible” seemed to mirror my mom’s stance on the issue; the Bible was written by men, for men, with the goal of achieving power over others. Clearly, the Bible does not favor women, and this is true for many religious texts.
