The Calvary Road

Does Christianity can bring a life-changing event in your life? If so, the book entitled The Calvary Road by Roy Hession is the book that you really need to know more about the deeper meaning of Christianity, a life with Jesus dwelling in your heart.

The Calvary Road is about exploring Christianity. It will help us more to know what Christianity is. It provides us a deeper out look about our life as a Christian who definitely needs Jesus in our lives.

I can really relate to this book because what Mr. Roy Hession says about how God will make you experience brokenness, happened in my life. I experience brokenness when my father died four years ago. It made me believe that God does not really exist. It came to the point that even my relationship with my present fiancé was greatly affected. Then I realized that you really need Jesus to be in control of your life when a college friend of mine introduced Jesus in my life. Chapter one is about brokenness and I learned a lot from it. “The Lord Jesus cannot live in us fully and reveal Himself through us until the proud self within us is broken”, this struck me the most because I do admit my pride consumed me when I still didn’t accept Jesus back then. On the other hand, the chapter about the speck and the plank made me realize, how can I disciple someone if I, my self still commit sin. It gave me a scratch on my head, “ now I understand”. The other part of the book where it gave me an upper cut is when Roy Hession described the Pharisees as our selves making God a liar. Now as Christ dwells in our lives, sometimes we lift our own chair to God. We think that the outward abstinence from certain sins is all that God requires from us but really look into our hearts.

The Calvary Road is a classic book which I firmly believe one of the best books I had ever read. It will make you pause for a while because it will definitely lead you to a life of victory with Jesus Christ.

under construction

Have you ever experienced your life’s under construction? When times you encountered brokeness in your life? Well, that is very vital in your self’s revival with Jesus. Just like a road that has been pounded everyday by cars, trucks, motorcyles or even a bicycle passing by. One day, this road will have cracks and soon it will form into craters where cars might trampled onto. This road must be closed and be constructed.

We can compare ourselves as a road and  the vehicles that are passing are the problems we encounter. God let us experience brokenness so that we can have a new revival Through HIM. The proud self within us must be broken in order for God to reveal His self to us. We must be equipped with the word of God by reading the Bible so that we are protected each time we face adversities in our lives.
