"Damascus Road Experience"

God is so good, He has made himself real to me. I thought I knew him, But as Matthew 7:21-23 says
"Knowing the correct password—saying 'Master, Master,' for instance— isn't going to get you anywhere with me. What is required is serious obedience—doing what my Father wills. I can see it now—at the Final Judgment thousands strutting up to me and saying, 'Master, we preached the Message, we bashed the demons, our God-sponsored projects had everyone talking.' And do you know what I am going to say? 'You missed the boat. All you did was use me to make yourselves important. You don't impress me one bit. You're out of here.'

This really was a wake up call for me, I always thought I was doing the right thing for God, but it was really for man or myself, now thanks to my “Encounter” I now know differently. Just like Paul I have been knocked off my horse and was blinded by the light. Acts 9:3-4
He set off. When he got to the outskirts of Damascus, he was suddenly dazed by a blinding flash of light. As he fell to the ground, he heard a voice: "Saul, Saul, why are you out to get me?"
After this time God has now removed the scales from my eyes and now I can see. Acts 9:17-19
So Ananias went and found the house, placed his hands on blind Saul, and said, "Brother Saul, the Master sent me, the same Jesus you saw on your way here. He sent me so you could see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit." No sooner were the words out of his mouth than something like scales fell from Saul's eyes—he could see again! He got to his feet, was baptized, and sat down with them to a hearty meal.

Thanks be to God for this new found sight, I can now live by the Holy Spirit as he has always wanted. I thank you God for opening my blind eyes. Help me to live for you more than ever, Draw me closer to you in intimacy. Give me the eyes and mind of Christ. Make my ministry your ministry. I love you Lord. Bring me to restoration!

Lying

What this adds up to is this: no more lies, no more pretense. Tell your neighbor the truth. I Christ's body we're all connected to each other, after all. When you lie to others, you end up lieing to yourself.

Ephesians 4:25
-The Message

The Cross Is Always Ready

There's a pure and undefiled religion. Walking with You Jesus. You are the blessed Hope. You are the risen Son. And There are witnesses of Resurrection. Calling everyone to walk the royal way, to sing the kingdoms song. The Cross, the Cross is always Ready. Everyday it waits for me. Christ own narrow road our vision. Christ, the Everlasting seed.

The Place To Be

"A distant Sound is hard to hear. Even a sound as loud as thunder. A distant heart is full of fear. A distant soul has lost its wonder. Sometimes it's hard to hear your voice, my God, is the reason that you're whispering because, you're one step away?

THank you Lord

God's Love

So hard to explain, the love God has for us. I look at my daughter and think of the love i have for her. God's love goes beyond that which is hard to conprehend. The love to give up your child for another person and people that dont even care about you one little bit!!!
I thank God for a love like that. I pray I can grow to understand this love. Love to give us your life for your brothers and sisters. Forget yourself, put others first at all times. Only God can place this in our hearts.
Thank you God for your Love!!!!!
