49 Reasons to Follow God Lucas Freitas

The book "49 Reasons to follow God" is my second book. Written in the form of plain text, it does not claim to be a theoretical theological book. These reflections can be made by any person on a daily basis. Whoever wonders about the existence of life, the existence of self, humanity, deity concepts, angels, supernatural beings, plant life, the idea of intelligent design, in short, ideas about the creation and maintenance of creation, you can find several reflections here of views before unimagined, or modified. 49 reasons may not be enough to convert an atheist, for example. But they are 49 reasons that will surely make anyone ponder the beauty of life. And one of the book's intentions is to make humans further exercise their roles as co-creators with God, for we are responsible for the continuity of creation, regardless of religious belief or lack thereof. To continue such a beautiful feat like nature, responsibly, can generate immeasurable fruit. It's like planting a seed and harvesting thousands of fruit. This is co-creation: continuing the work of nature. Continuing the work of God. We are co-creators. We have power. And we should use it. Our talents must be used. Unearthing talents and directing them to co-creation is one of the reasons to pursue God's love. It may seem easy for some to love God, but this possibility can not be as common as we think. There would be no need for a commandment to love God if everybody loved him. So we need to remember the importance of loving God. With clear reasons to love God, the decision to love God may become less painful to those who share in my hardship. God is good. And he saw that what He created was good. Now we too need to see that. Have a good read. Best regards, Lucas Freitas
