Many people have a distorted idea about normal life. They want a life that is free from any responsibilities, any duties, not obliged to anything, just wanna do what they want. And honestly I want that too! But guess who is the christian lived a most normal life in the bible? Yes, of course is Jesus. Many people they thought to live a christian life is to live a sinless life, live up the name of "sainst", as sinless as Jesus. But when God is establishing us to be His holy nation special people, the word "holy" doesn't means sinless, you know? The opposite of holy isn't sin, but is actually "common". Actually God wants us to be uncommon people! It's like when everyone complaining the government, you are speaking good of, and blessing the government; when everyone are under financial situation, you are not under the situation but above; when no body care a person on clutcher walking in the street, but you do because you have a solution; when people say we can live life however you want, but you say we live life in the WAY.
Friends! Everyone may has his or her own version of being normal. But as a believer, if your life are not flowing with signs and miracles perhaps you actually do not believe in the Good News of Jesus (Mark 16:15-18). But if you do believe yet no signs and miracles flowing in your life, probably you are believing in the Good News partially and selectively. And that is very sad, because Jesus had purchased the whole package of the Good News with His life (He died). But out of THOUSANDS of the promises in the Good News you take only ONE! I think Jesus are screaming up there: "Come oooon, I had already redeemed it all back to you! USE IT!!"
Come on, be normal and live normal. Be the freaky people on the earth, live up to "Mark 16:15-18"... And He(Jesus) said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."
What shall I liken people who call themselves christian but no signs and miracles flowing in their life? It's as if: you are a guy but you live like a girl, and your life doesn't show that you are a guy!
