About Fruit of Change

This blog is borne out of desiring to share with others. I have given scripture booklets to friends, family, and whoever wants them. We are reading the booklets together for at least 30 days. I share in the blog what God gives me about the seeds we are planting. I believe that as we sow the Word and pray together, we are going to see transformation in our lives. The Word sown in our hearts will yield the fruit of change.

First: God Is


No excuses! You have to know that God exists. Creation is not a coincidence. Here's what God's word says about it.

19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. Romans 1:19-20 NIV

When we look at the beauty of creation, it is God's hint to us that He exists.  You would have to work too hard to deny it. That's the first step of faith—knowing/believing that God exists.

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrews 11:6 NKJV

Those who acknowledge God's existence are on the right path. Think about the most beautiful thing you've ever seen in nature. Does it make your mouth drop open with awe? For me it's stars. When I look at the night sky, sometimes I just have to sing How Great Thou Art.

Step one accomplished. I believe God is.
