Christians and non-Christians, welcome to our dedicated thread. Thank you for the invite! We're from /christian/ and we're all here to have an incredible time with you all for the next week or so. Please, feel free to pay us a visit at
>>>/christian/ or post in this thread.
We don't have much to offer unfortunately, as I made a thread asking us what we should do about less than four days before today, and we were only officially invited to post here with our own thread about yesterday. Regardless, in the spirit of Christmas and the Holy Night, I wanted to start by spreading goodwill and good cheer to everyone by sharing some verses that I hold close to my heart and invite others to do the same, even if they aren't a Christian.
Past sharing scriptures, this is meant to be a comfy thread, so really anything can be discussed as long as it's somewhat relevant to Christianity and follows the rules here (don't forget about Santa's Thunderdome, please do us all a favor and keep this thread clean at the very least!). This thread can also be for prayer requests, support, questions about faith, confessions, you name it!
Now that's all out of the way, here's some verses I'd like to share from my King James Bible and what they mean for me.
Matthew 17:20 - "And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you."
Proverbs 4:23 - "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life."
Proverbs 20:29 - "The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head."
Psalm 41:3 - "The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness."
These verses mean a lot to me, as someone who struggles with anxiety, self-doubt, and depression. Knowing He loves me, even as I struggle with my temptations give me hope and another reason to look forward to waking up every day. Even if you have very little faith in Him, He will still answer to you because He loves you. I went through some hardships in life that really made me question my faith, but every day I still wake up, living the impossible.
Do you have anything to share or talk about here? Go ahead! But remember,
Jesus loves and saves all. God bless you and have a Merry Christmas!
