My first encounter with Jesus

Before I encounter Jesus I was a girl who was very influened
by some people who did bad things in life. Things that is
worthless when i haven't encounter Jesus, my life is full of
disappointments, full of frustrations because I didn't know yet
my purpose in life that time, But when I encountered Jesus,
everything has changed. He changed my beliefs, He changed
my mindset, He changed everything to me and He turned my life
into a wonderful life, and He gave me a meaningful life.

I realized that no one is perfect. And NO ONE WILL BE, except
Him. I'm a sinner and He is my saviour. And right now, because
of his grace, mercy and love. He turned my darkest side into a
new one. Besides that, I'm thankful and blessed that He chose
me to be His servant, that He uses me as an instrument to
others to share His love for us.

You'll never imagine that the girl who is writing this
 kind of blog is the girl who already experienced
doing such worldly things before.
And right now I'm enjoying His presence always and my relationship with Him

The Purpose Driven Life

By: Tim Challies


The Purpose Driven Life proclaims itself to be “more than a book; it is a guide to a40-day spiritual journey that will enable you to discover the answer to life’s most important question: What on earth am I here for?” We see that the author is setting his sights high; he is going to attempt to answer the greatest question we can face – that of our meaning and purpose. He promises that at the end of the journey “you will know God’s purpose for your life and will understand the big picture – how all the pieces of your life fit together.” The results of this will be amazing. “Having this perspective will reduce your stress, simplify your decisions, increase your satisfaction, and, most important, prepare you for eternity.” It is a courageous man who would write a book that claims it will do all of that. Of course these lofty standards help us realize why this book has attracted such great attention!
The format of the book is simple. The book is divided into six parts: an introduction followed by a section for each of the five purposes Rick Warren has discovered. Each day’s reading is only a few pages long and is followed by a verse of the Bible to memorize, a point to ponder and a question to consider. The book is packed with over 1200 quotations from the Bible.
There are many positive aspects to this book. The author obviously loves the church and views the local church as a beautiful institution. He speaks of the value and necessity of Christian community that can only be gained through the local church. He is firm on this point, stating that there is no such thing as a lone Christian. He has many good things to say about worship and how so many people view worship as being about themselves rather than being an outpouring of praise and obedience towards God. He speaks of the value of identifying and utilizing our spiritual gifts.
I believe Rick Warren is a godly man who truly wants to reach the world for Christ. In interviews I have read I can see that he certainly has an understanding of the Reformed tradition and has affirmed his belief in the “five solas” of the Reformation. When with Reformed people he certainly can talk the talk, so to speak. Though I do not doubt his faith or his intentions, I find that the book itself deviates from Reformed doctrine on many points.
There are literally hundreds of reviews of this book that focus on the positive attributes of the book. Many of them are written very well and there is little I can add to them. For that reason I am going to focus on some of the concerns I have with this book.
