“It matters, You Matter”
There are people who say the Bible is “just a story,” and that believing it or not is simply a personal preference. But something in me rises when I hear that because I know the truth…
The Bible is not just a story.
It is the living Word of the living God.
Yes, we do not all read it the same.
Yes, we do not all understand it the same.
But that does not change the reality that every human soul is meant to be seen, redeemed, forgiven, and loved by God.
And because of that, it matters and what you believe matters.
Not for argument’s sake. Not for tradition’s sake. Not for religion’s sake. But for your salvation, the destiny of your soul.
Some may say, “If you do not believe the Bible, that’s fine.” But I can not say that.
I can not tell you it is fine not to believe because eternity is not “fine,” and your soul is not casual.
What if today was your last day? What if this moment was the moment you stand before God?
None of us are promised tomorrow.
And the truth is, your tomorrow is already here.
Jesus is coming back. He is coming back for His Church, not a denomination, not a label, not a tradition. Jesus said this gospel shall be preached in all the earth, and then the end will come.
(Matthew 24:14)
And when we stand before Him, there will be no excuses, no “but I did not know,” no “but I was not sure.
”Every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess. (Philippians 2:10-11)
Even those who never said “Yes.”
That is why it matters!
It matters right now – while you still have breath – you have the chance to say:
“Yes, I want to know You.”
“Yes, I want to follow You.”
“Yes, I want to serve You.”
“Yes, I want to hear ‘Well done.”
Even if you have walked away. Even if you have said, “Maybe tomorrow.” Even if you have been unsure, wounded, confused, or afraid. Your tomorrow is today.
There is one God, the Father. There is one Mediator between God and man – Jesus Christ, the Messiah, our King. There is one faith, one Lord over all.
And there is only one way into the Kingdom to come. Through repentance and obedience.Turning from the old life and walking toward the One who died to save you.
Knowing God and serving God will be the best decision you will ever make in this lifetime. Do not let tomorrow be your last.
Do not let today pass without choosing life. Because it matters, because you matter.
Oh, how God loves us that He gave His only begotten Son ❤️

I know we do not all read or understand God’s Word the same. But I am just sharing with each of you how I read it, how I understand it, and how I see God’s Truth revealed throughout Scripture.
My encouragement to each of you is simple. Keep reading. Keep studying.
Keep praying. Keep working out your salvation with sincerity and reverence.
Let God’s Truth be your anchor.
At the end of the day, we still have-
“One Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and all. ” (Ephesians 4:4-6)
And one way into His Kingdom.
(Read 2 Peter 1-11 and further if you like)
It matters, you matter!
and God loves you ❤️
Dear Father in heaven,
Your Word is not a story. It is truth, life, and breath to our souls.
Thank You for giving us this moment, this day, this chance to choose You.
Awaken every heart reading this.
Remove confusion, doubt, fear, and hesitation.
Let Your Spirit draw them with clarity and conviction.
Teach us to repent, to obey, to walk in Your ways, and to anchor our lives in Your truth.
May no one delay their “yes.”
May no one wait for a tomorrow that may never come.
Prepare us for the return of Your Son,
and let our lives be found faithful when we stand before Him.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Have a blessed day
God loves you ❤️
and so do I ❤️
