Walking with the Lord

I've never written something this personal before so please bear with me ;)

This past week my moms cousin passed away of liver cancer and liver failure. My mom told me to view her testimony, I did, and wow it brought tears to my eyes. It was a very powerful testimony but something hit me close to my heart. She asked "have you received God?" if not than you are rejecting God. If it's yes then study your bible everyday. For me I have received God but I do have trouble walking with him and reading the Bible everyday. I find myself "busy" but as I have thought about that today, what would happen if God was "busy" where would we be? what would we do? God blesses us, we need to live it and rejoice in it.
If you have someone in your life that maybe needs a little encouragement to walk with the Lord, then I encourage you to be there supporter. Pray for them, or even send them a little note. Carolyn just encouraged me to be a stronger child of God, and I want to encourage you. Christianity is about family and we are all brothers and sisters through Christ. I know it's easier said than done because I struggle with it everyday. Be there for each other trust me just because someone appears to be doing fine they still may be struggling.
The new year is coming rapidly, and one of my "resolutions" will be to read the Bible everyday, but I'm not going to wait until Jan 1. It's not like loosing weight (which I'm going to try to do)
As Jonathan says: this is serious. Start today!
