Note: This is an old series. There is a lot more I can say about this now! Perhaps I can make a new edition of this series one of these days!
Original commentaries (from June 2020):
Episode 1: Discernment:
I’ve made most of my points on the comic already, so I’ll share some personal experiences about how reading scripture has affected me.
I was a Christian for a long time, but I didn’t really take the time to personally learn about God until a few years ago. Reading the Bible, just on my own, not by listening to someone else, has given me the opportunity to really learn about God and his character. The more I read the Bible, the more truths I see, the stronger my faith became, and the closer I got to Jesus. This is something you can’t obtain by simply listening to sermons! You must spend personal time, alone, in his word, that’s how he speaks to you!
I encourage you to do so! You will not regret it.
Episode 2: Prayer
Again, my points have been made in the comic, so I’ll just throw in some extra suggestions here.
Have you ever tried praying alone for hours on end? I haven’t, but I heard from many that it’s a life-changing experience. Simply removing all distractions and just enjoying personal time with the Lord, just the two of you, what a wonderful thought that is! I would encourage you to try, and I also encourage myself to try! In such a busy and distractive world, I think we all need a bit of alone time with God.
Also, try praying on your knees! Not that it’s a sin not to, but just as a sign of your humility towards God! It’s quite a different feeling actually when you truly humble yourself before God in prayer.
Episode 3: Worship
Worship is very important! The Lord is worthy of all worship! So give it to him without reserve! I really enjoy worshipping together with the saints, it really brings everyone together and you really feel the presence of the Lord within the midst of worshipping saints!
This is gonna be the final part of the “Christian Life” series! These are, of course, not everything that you need to know about your personal walk with the Lord, but if you diligently seek him and want to please him, you can be assured that he will show you how.
