Faith in God
Chapter 1
Hi lets start the book with faith in God. God has faith in you, so you should have faith in God as well. God doesn’t have faith in you because he has to; he has faith in you because he wants to. You should have faith in God because you want to, not because you have to. God has faith in you because you can do things you may not know you can do. You have faith in God because you know that God can hold your life together. Say you need to do a project that requires glue or tape. God is the tape or glue and you are the project. Without the tape or glue the project falls apart. You need God in order to hold your life together. Cause without God your life will fall apart. One of God's main jobs is making people. He makes them to replace the ones that die, so there will be enough people to take care of things on earth. He doesn't make grown-ups, just babies. I think because they are smaller and easier to make. That way He doesn't have to take up His valuable time teaching them to talk and walk. He can just leave that to the mothers and fathers. God's second most important job is listening to prayers. An awful lot of this goes on, since some people, like preachers and things, pray at times beside bedtime. God doesn't have time to listen to the radio or TV because of this. God sees everything and hears everything and is everywhere, which keeps Him pretty busy. Here are some questions for you. Answer them the way you think they should be answered:
Do you have faith in God?
If you don’t have faith in God do you want to have faith in God?
Do you need God to hold your life together?
Those are all the questions that I have for you right now. There will be more in other chapters. Here are some definitions that I thought you might want to know:Faith: Confident belief in the truth, value, or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing. Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence. Loyalty to a person or thing; allegiance.
God: A being conceived as the perfect, omnipotent, omniscient originator and ruler of the universe, the principal object of faith and worship in monotheistic religions. The force, effect, or a manifestation.
Glue: A strong liquid adhesive.
Tape: A narrow strip of strong woven fabric.
Love
Chapter 2
Love is all you need when you are all alone. God can give you love by God loving you himself, (which he will do no matter what). God loves you and will never leave you. Here are some more questions for you to answer. Answer them fully. And remember these questions are for you to see, and not to be shared with others:Do you think God loves you?
Do you think God is your best friend?
Just as I said these are just some of the questions that I have for you. He wants you to feel safe and loved all the time. Here is Gods love letter to you and everyone else he loves:Father's love letter
My Child,
You may not know me, but I know everything about you. I know when you sit down and when you rise up. I am familiar with all your ways. Even the very hairs on your head are numbered. For you were made in my image. In me you live and move and have your being. For you are my offspring. I knew you even before you were conceived. I chose you when I planned creation. You were not a mistake, for you’re your days are written in my book. I determined the exact time of your birth and where you would live. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. I knit you together in your mother's womb. And brought you forth on the day you were born. I have been misrepresented by those who don't know me. I am not distant and angry, but am the complete expression of love. And it is my desire to lavish my love on you. Simply because you are my child and I am your Father. I offer you more than your earthly father ever could. For I am the perfect father. Every good gift that you receive comes from my hand. For I am your provider and I meet all your needs. My plan for your future has always been filled with hope. Because I love you with an everlasting love. My thoughts toward you are countless as the sand on the seashore.And I rejoice over you with singing. I will never stop doing good to you. For you are my treasured possession. I desire to establish you with all my heart and all my soul. And I want to show you great and marvelous things. If you seek me with all your heart, you will find me. Delight in me and I will give you the desires of your heart. For it is I who gave you those desires. I am able to do more for you than you could possibly imagine. For I am your greatest encourager. I am also the Father who comforts you in all your troubles. When you are brokenhearted, I am close to you. As a shepherd carries a lamb, I have carried you close to my heart. One day I will wipe away every tear from your eyes. And I'll take away all the pain you have suffered on this earth. I am your Father, and I love you even as I love my son, Jesus. For in Jesus, my love for you is revealed. He is the exact representation of my being. He came to demonstrate that I am for you, not against you. And to tell you that I am not counting your sins. Jesus died so that you and I could be reconciled. His death was the ultimate expression of my love for you. I gave up everything I loved that I might gain your love. If you receive the gift of my son Jesus, you receive me. And nothing will ever separate you from my love again. Come home and I'll throw the biggest party heaven has ever seen. I have always been Father, and will always be Father. My question is…Will you be my child? I am waiting for you.
Love, Your Dad
Almighty God
Asking for Forgiveness
Chapter 3
God wants you to be with him. God also can’t be around sin. So guess what you have to do in order to be with God. You need to get saved and also pray for forgiveness. You may say “If I don’t get saved I could go to hell. “So you do have to be saved in order to go to heaven. And how I can prove that is the Bible says that the only way to heaven is through Jesus. But please don’t be scared about going to hell because God will do all in his power to be with you. God wants to cuddle with you and have a great relationship with you. You don’t have to go to church in order to go to heaven, but you should because in order to have a relationship with God you need to go to church and read the bible so God can talk to you. When you don’t talk to God your relationship with God can fail. God doesn’t want his relationship with you to fail, so please find a church (That is if you don’t have one.) and praise him all you want. I praise God at home, at church, in the car. Basically I praise God everywhere. Here are some questions for you to answer. Answer them the way you think they should be answered. And remember these questions are for you to answer and for you to see, so don’t be scared to answer them: Do you go to church?
If you go to church do you praise God?
Do you have a relationship with God?
If you don’t do you want to have a relationship with God?
Does God speak to you?
Does God speak to you through the bible?
Are you baptized?
If you are not baptized do you want to be baptized?
Are you Afraid of going to hell if you don’t go to church?As I said those are just some of the questions that I have for you. There will be more throughout the book. Here are some definitions that I would like you to see:
Forgiveness: The act of forgiving; pardon.Baptized: To admit into Christianity by means of baptism. To cleanse or purify. To initiate. To give a first or Christian name to; christen. To administer baptism.
Hell: The abode of condemned souls and devils in some religions; the place of eternal punishment for the wicked after death, presided over by Satan. A state of separation from God; exclusion from God's presence.
Relationship: The condition or fact of being related; connection or association. Connection by blood or marriage; kinship. A particular type of connection existing between people related to or having dealings with each other.
Praise: Expression of approval, commendation, or admiration. The extolling or exaltation of a deity, ruler, or hero. A reason for praise; merit. To express warm approbation of, commendation for, or admiration for.
Church: A building for public, especially Christian worship. The company of all Christians regarded as a spiritual body. A specified Christian denomination: the Presbyterian Church. A congregation. Public divine worship.
Those are just some of the definitions that I have for you. There will be more in other chapters.
Fighting Fires
Chapter 4
Fire fighters fight real fires when we fight religious fires. When you are hanging out with your friends and they want you to steal candy or awesome video games from a store. You really don’t want to but then you don’t want to. Here are some questions for you to answer please take your time and answer with confidence. And remember these questions are for you to see, so don’t be afraid to answer them:Do you want God to fight fires with you?
Has God done so awesome things to you?
Does God talk to you when you pray?
Do you have the courage to ask God to help you with your fires?
Do you ever think that God punishes you for fun?
Those are just some of the Questions that I have for you. There will be lots more questions in the future. Here is a tip that I am going to give you. I would like if you were to get a prayer journal and write down anything that you ask God. Each day if the prayer is a fire write fire above it. This will help you know what a fire is and even help you know how to treat the fire. Just know that God is your water when fires come. Have you ever had a fight with you husband or even your brother? That is a fire and all you need is God to help solve that problem. God doesn’t mind helping you with your fires. God wants to help you with your fires so don’t be afraid to ask God to help you. You may say “I don’t have to ask God to help me he can see that I need help so why ask.” Well God wants you to ask him. He wants you to be brave and not be afraid to talk to him. God loves every time that you talk to him because it is called father daughter time. Read the next chapter 2 to see how you can show God love. Here is a passage that I wrote about fires and the movie Fire Proof.Do you know how Fire Fighters fight fires? Well you fight fires too. Why you ask? Well Temptation is like a fire it burns up into flames and you can't put it out in less you have water. Let’s say that God is the water and Temptation is the fire, so that makes you the fire fighter. You pray to God (water) and ask him to help you fight Temptation (fire) and God (water) helps you. Ok you know the movie Fire Proof this movie has some fires in it and I’m not talking about real fires I’m talking about Temptation (fire). The movie is about a man named Caleb and a woman named Catharine. They are married and are struggling with there marriage. Caleb is always complaining about him not getting any respect when he's not giving God any respect either. Caleb was going to get a divorce until Caleb's dad asked him to wait 40 days because Caleb’s dad was going to send him something in the mail. Caleb finally got what his father was going to send him. Caleb found out it was a book called the Love dare Caleb read the note his father left him and didn't want to try this book after all, but finally Caleb read the book and followed each day carefully. Catharine thought he was buttering her up for all the things in the house, so Catharine got even madder and started seeing someone else. Caleb found out and got really mad. Caleb went to the guy and said "you leave my wife alone. We are still married." The guy finally left Catharine alone. Catharine was surprised to see the guy not talking to her or not even saying hi. Finally Catharine realized that Caleb was trying to change his heart for her. Caleb and Catharine lived happily ever after. So what do you think so far is it interesting? Well all you need is God (water), Faith, and Strength in order to fight Temptation (fire). I hope you fight Temptation (fire) With God (water) and not without God (water). Here are some definitions for you.
Water: A clear, colorless, odorless, and tasteless liquid, H2O, essential for most plant and animal life and the most widely used of all solvents.
Fire: A rapid, persistent chemical change that releases heat and light and is accompanied by flame, especially the exothermic oxidation of a combustible substance. Burning fuel or other material.
Those are just some of the definitions that I have for you. There will be more in other chapters.
Wrap up
Chapter 5
This is a wrap up of all the chapters in the whole book. I so hope this book has changed your life. I know just from writing the book that it has changed my life. I am going to write more books so that you can have a more changed life. God has taught me that I need to help other people and not just help myself. I hope that you can help other people as well. I know that there will be a book about prayer. You should try some Beth Moore studies. They are really good and they inspire you to do great things with your life. We have talked about Fighting Fires, Love, Faith in God, and Asking for Forgiveness too. There will also be a study that I am going to make. I don’t know what it is going to be called. All I know is that it will be great. I will see you soon and I wish you happy days and happy nights.
