Just a Thought

I know God wants me full time, Its a spiritual truth that as we go we are to make disciples. If God lives in me and He spoke everything into existence then its time for me to speak. My heart is to help people struggling and I have done that at the workplace, at home and many other venues. Now it is time for me to be a full time employee of the Creator of all things. I proclaim in Jesus' name JesusCrawl ministries to be a success, to financially support my family while we help those trying to recover their lives. I believe even if nobody reads this it will be spoken through this technology. I believe all things that need to happen will now transpire. I am sitting at my desk at church. That statement itself is a miracle so I know God is still in the miracle business.
Peace and Love ---I pray for Jesus to be Lord of all things in my life.....Amen

It Ain't About Us

Whenever I get nervous about speaking in front of a large crowd or playing a new song for the first time my comfort comes from saying "it's not about me". The truth is its all about glorifying God and allowing Him to work through me. God equips the called He doesn't call the equipped. This same theory holds true to the board meeting I just left ! Its amazing the opinions that fly around !! People putting God in a box or putting man made "rules" in affect by a vote of men. God always shows up no matter what rules or regulations we put on a three day event. I said I wasn't going to get involved at this level again but It came down to If I don't no one else would. So I learn to separate politics from His work. Cause It Ain't about us.....
Peace and Love

Good People-Bad Things

Sometimes I wonder why bad things happen to good people ? When close friends are in pain or sick, when good Christian people die young or suddenly, these are times that get me thinking and searching. My wife and I had the cancer scare last year. Many times I find myself asking why ? I have seen in the last year several close friends loose loved ones. I have seen amazing Christian people go through terrible times. I have seen alcoholics and addicts destroy their lives. Why ? I don't know ! What I do know is that I also have witnessed awesome men and women put their faith into action. In the middle of adversity, devastation and fear I have seen people praising God and sharing their faith through their actions. We live in a fallen world that the enemy has control of but we are not of this world. We are aliens in this world. No matter what happens to us here we know we have eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ. We have fellowship, friends and family for support and the Word of God for comfort. I believe that is why the armor of God has the helmet of Salvation, it covers our head or thoughts. We can take comfort in knowing God is in control and pray for our brothers and sisters. So I guess I don't have to know why , I just have to have faith and trust. So as we all go through our stuff know that Jesus Loves you and I Love you ! Good Things

Peace and Love
