it is extremely important that you do get in a healthy church.
because paul said that is much easier to fall away if you are not regularly coming together with other people, you need encouragement and strength from other people, you cant always make it alone. and ultimately, i dont beleive you can make it alone at all.
there are times when god calls us aside to be alone with him, but overall you need others, others who can can give you their joy, strength, wisdom, etc, when yours is gone.
their will be times when you are fallen and need help, and if you dont have someone to run to, then you may never get back up.
i once heard a great man say
"there are no lone rangers in the body of christ"
just like in the secular world today, no one could do much of anything all their self without help or connections, it is the same in the body of christ.
i personally beleive a wonderful place to start reading is the psalms or to atleast make a good habit of reading.
there are alot of great teachings in the gospels, but many times its just like reading a history book. and it can be boring at times.
another man once told me that
"you visit the epistles (books like hebrews and james, the books after acts), but you live in the gospels"
becuase you need to meditate on the life of christ and be filled with who he was, he is the one and only model to live after.
but sometimes i need to get away from history and stories.
the psalms are just little poems and testimonies that excite you and encourage you.
the psalms are simply amasing.
one chapter is about nothing but encouragment.
another is about nothing but faith.
another is about nothing but right living.
i myself have found more encouragement and help during my troubles from the psalms than from anything else.
becuase the psalms were written by men when they were going through problems or when they were experiencing gods blessing.
and any time you need encouragement, you can find one that tells how god delivered david from all his troubles.
or you can find one that shows you that your not the only one that feels like your about to fall.
and they teach awesome principles.
the gospels seem to drag on sometimes, but the psalms are quick and to the point.
the men that wrote them learned them from experience, it is good to read them and learn them quick so you dont have to wait years to realise it.
experience is a good teacher, but it is a very slow teacher as well.
im not gonna say the psalms are the best place to start, but as for me i love them, their probly my fave things to read.
check out the psalms sometime.
there is nothing more important than you having a time alone to be with god. you need to a time to get away from everything else and talk to god and tell him how you feel.
even if he doesnt talk back, you need to get alone and talk to him, and ask him to come meet with you.
in the beginning of genesis, god didnt speak his word untill the holyspirit moved on the earth.
the words of the bible will not change your life untill youve first gotten alone with god in prayer and experienced him.
becuase untill the lord prepares you and makes you ready, the word of god cannot penetrate your heart. god has to move on it and fix it.
the word is important, but it is pointless without prayer.
just make times where you get away from everything and ask him to show himself to you. he will come.
and even if you dont see the heavons open and angels singing hehe...just tell him how you feel.
dont use your brain to think of things to say.
tell him exactly how you feel and what you want. sometimes you may not say anything at all, but you must get alone with him or you will never succeed in this life of christ.
happy and welcome!
