The truth seekers across the globe are coming to a point where they can’t stand any religion or ideology that is nominal or lukewarm. If you are a Buddhist act like Buddha, Islamic, the way Mohammad would, and if Christian, the way of Christ—just be real! Then and only then will the world see the differences and find the right way (which is Christ). Secular society has taught everyone to place their lives into their own hands and enjoy the pleasures of this world. The loss? Everything eternal.

The reason for having you watch the short film is to show you that in the process of searching for truth one must see that this creed has indeed changed your life. This woman found that in Islam. Her mother is appalled but can’t give any foundational reasoning in the Bible or of the credibility of Christ except traditions and colleagues disapproval. The daughter on the other hand can. She has a better health message (she stopped smoking, eating pork, and drinking), answers to social questions (rights of women), and spiritual connection. Why should she turn back then?

The world has placed all the religions, ideologies, and superstitions in a storefront for any passersby to see. There are the mannequins posing the latest fashions and ideas of each religious brand. Each promises something enticing to attract a searcher into the store. Many are already in the store, trying on different clothes; reading different books; or socializing with different people. However many leave overwhelmed by the mass selection on display. “Where is the owner of the store?” they ask while leaving. Where is the organization? Why are there so many types? Where is the one that I need? With no answer, they leave in frustration the same way they came—empty-handed.

Tell me; are you the same as everyone else—religiously speaking? We say that the Lord (the owner!) is coming back soon but we are not willing to lead the searcher to the right place, to prepare them for the soon coming of their savior. If you aren’t working as a store clerk, don’t be mad when someone picks something different than what you know to be best. Actually, please don’t fuss at all until you are ready to be like Moses when “he chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a short time.” (Hebrews 11:25)

Amen.

The Dream

I had a dream about a week ago that made such a great impression that I remembered it when I woke up that morning. I know that this isn’t a phenomenon being that dreaming is a common human action, but I don’t normally dream or at least remember them. This makes this dream so impressionable and vivid even a week later.

Before I tell you this dream, I want you open your understanding to how God works in someone’s life so that you will be prepared for your experience.

Ok, now the dream. I wouldn’t want you getting to impatient, now would I? My dream took place outside of some type of school building. It greatly resembled one that I use to live close to many years ago in Florida, USA. A three floor building enclosed structure to be exact.

For some reason (which didn’t seem important), a group of young people and myself were sitting on some bleachers outside of the building either listening to someone talk or enjoying the fellowship of each other. I remember seeing one of my relatives.

When it the event was over, everyone started leaving together in the general direction around the perimeter of the building. I was one of the last to leave, and as I was making my way towards the exit, my cell phone rang. Upon answering I realized that it was one of my friends who told me that they had left their phone at the bleachers and asked if I could go get it.

So I went back to the bleachers to retrieve the item, and was I shocked to see the whole bleachers filled with wallets, cell phones, and other personals. While getting my things, a young lady walked up and commented on how she wished she could care as much as I did.

Then I woke up.

Just like King Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel 2, I wanted to understand exactly what the dreamed meant. It just felt like it was so important to know.

So I brought it up with my mother, who listened until I was done. She was talking to God as I spoke and she gave me the meaning after a few seconds:

‘Your job is to bring people back to their valuables to help them remember what is most important in life.’

In awe, I have worked to digest this explanation and understand what the Lord has in store for my life.

What is the most important thing in your life? What is the Lord leading you? Whatever it is, don’t forsake the dream!
