Does Religion Matter?

Does Religion Matter?


Ok the definition of religion is:

"a strong belief in a supernatural power or powers that control human destiny"

So I think religion is important to a point, you have to believe in God before you can have a relationship with Him. But I think more important than religion is a relationship with Jesus. A deep intimate beautiful real relationship with the creator of the universe.

He so desires us to know and love Him.

People get so tied up in rules and traditions and they lose sight of Jesus.

So dont be religious, have a relationship with Jesus....... our Savior........ <3

You meet a homeless person on the street. Do you give them money? Why?

You meet a homeless person on the street. Do you give them money? Why?


Usually no, BUT

I try to talk to them, if I can and have time, and find out their need. Are they hungry, do they need a jacket, new shoes, socks? I try to find the need and get them that rather than just giving them money. Not all homeless people are drug addicts or alcoholics, but many have addictions and struggles. If I can help them without giving them cash I will. If I cant and I have cash i will give them cash too.

God sees us giving, he doesnt judge us on what the person does with the money.
