I'm of the mindset that we must all catechize ourselves now and again. And yes, I'm referring to our Spiritual Temperature(s) regularly; you see, we can become lukewarm towards God if we're not careful. How often have you caught yourself slipping, I mean that you are about to give in to a behavioral pattern that you know isn't of God? Maybe you think that it's borderline, and you can swiftly recover from this felicitous behavioral pattern. At that moment, I spring into action, and I call upon the name of Jesus. You see, this is my safety valve or a better way to say it, as my safety word, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, until I've come through the temptation.
In the Book of Deuteronomy chapter 4: 29-30, we're reminded, " But from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. (30) " When you are in distress, and all these things have come upon you, in the latter days you will return to the Lord your God and listen to His voice. Hearing these words prayerfully, you will work even harder to spring into action and call upon the name of Jesus, who is our fortress. Now, this brings up another question, do you sincerely want to know God? Are you genuinely seeking His face? God the Father desires to be known by us, exactly what are you doing to grab his attention? Will your actions get you noticed just here on earth, I mean only as a Child of God, or will you be seen throughout all eternity for your acts of service and worship?
Don't be content to make it into Heaven; start now in honing your love skills. Like loving All others, no matter where they are from or what they look like do to a birth deformity or even if they have put body art on themselves
to make a statement of some kind.

Lastly, how many folks will recognize You in Heaven as the person who led them to Christ or at least planted a seed or more in breaking down the veneer of sin in their life? Prayerfully when you hear that small voice or feel pushing, which is defined as the Holy Ghost in your spirit, spring into action. Now, ask yourself once again, What Kind of Christian am I?
