CHRIST, VINES AND TRYING TIMES




Hi folks,
Here it is the so promised Christian Vine post!
First of, vine is an app where you can record 8sec. videos, edit and upload them right in the same app.To play one of these videos, while on the app, you just have to scroll down to the vine you want an it'll play instantly and repeat itself until you scroll to another vine. To every vine there's 3 actions, Revine, which is how you share that video to your own page (it's like Retweet on twitter); then there's the Loops which is the number of times a vine has been played and last but not least a Like button as well, this one we all know about...Oh and there is a comment section for every vine!



With all explained let's talk about what's important - The Christian Viners!
One day I was scrolling down on vine and suddenly I thought "With so many people on vine there must be at least one person doing some sort of Christian vines" and I decided to search within "#christian" and what wasn't my surprise when all of these vines appeared of followers of Christ, some were singing, others were speaking about the Lord and encouraging other people to turn to Him and others were quoting bible verses...

I'd like to talk about every single Christian viner I follow at the moment but it would take me too long and they're all special to me, so I don't want any of them to feel left out if they ever read this. All of them inspire many people and as for me I can honestly see God's hand on their lives. They talk about His love with real passion and that is astonishing to see/hear!

Now, here's a list of the first viners I found that I hold in my heart!

These are just a little piece of a massive community of christians on vine, so I'm sorry if I didn't post anyone, but there are really a ton more christian viners and I decided to only post the ones I first discovered months ago. I'm so glad the community is so long and that there is even a movement going on called S.M.O.C. which stands for Serious Movement of Christ. Most christian on the app use the tags #TeamSMOC or #SMOCnation to share their love for our Saviour, their testimonies, little messages of encouragement, bible verses, etc.
It's so great to see the Lord's hand over His people, it's relieving to see this generation, that has everything to go wrong, turn to what's truly important: share the Gospel, the good news and actually taking time to speak about their beliefs with no fear! It's awesome seeing this geneartion being able! That's exactly what the Lord wants from us to be able, able to share His word, able to hear Him, able to open our hearts to Him, able to love others. Just like Him, our God is able!
 I feel so blessed every time I log in this app and see new vines, and new people being revined on to my feed. I mean I love the same ol' viners but it's great to see new faces, new people acting according to Romans 1:16.
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile."

To the person reading this that doesn't have a vine account I hope you create one right away and check every single one of those viners and like them as much I do!
To the viners, if they ever read this (eeek I'm dreaming a bit too loud) I just want to thank you for engaging in some serious movement of Christ, and for beautifully and creatively sharing the Gospel and even helping out so many people on vine with prayers, etc... But specially I wanna thank all of the SMOCnation for coming into my life when I needed the most, I had been far from the church and kind of distant from the Lord as well and all of these people with their videos brought me closer to the Lord.
So here's my most sincere "Thank You" to every single person that uploads a vine about Jesus, you might not even know it but with a song, a message or a bible verse you could be drawing someone closer to the Lord...
 I bet our God is pretty happy with y'all.

 Well that's all for today, I bet I've repeated myself a bunch of times throughout the whole post and probably even mispelled some things, but it's already quite late here and I don't have it in me to revise everything I wrote haha...
Thanks for reading and I'd love to hear what y'all think, it's nice to hear some feedback once in awhile.


Stay Blessed,

- AC


PS:  (While I was searching through their vine accounts to write them here I found this amazingly talented viner, who's also Christian and her voice is just so beautiful that I could't not mention her on this post, her name is Holly, here's her vine account Holly_Jowle and you should all go check her vines as well as the other ones I mentioned before!!)
