Bigger. Better. Faster.

With so little time to blog. I’ve resorted to something much more entertaining and a quicker release for me. Not that I think “its all about me,” but this time its all about me. For whats going on inside and out, take a look to the right>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

unCommon Vision because of an unCommon God + unCommon Attitude because of an unCommon savior = unCommon & Supernatural results

How big is your God? How much do you trust Him?

to God above for my wife, Laura. She is so full of wisdom, heart and courage. Watching her chase after the heart of God is inspiration  like no other. No one I know seeks to please him and know his purpose more. Loving and living with me can be such a challenge. I know that it’s only by his mercy and grace that she’s allowed to shine so brightly in my life.

I love you, Lulabelle.

Thank you, Jesus!

Relevancy at it’s finest from The Old Testament:

4 The rabble with them began to crave other food, and again the Israelites started wailing and said, “If only we had meat to eat! 5 We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost—also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic.6 But now we have lost our appetite; we never see anything but this manna!”

If only I had this. If only I had one more of that.  Could be wrong but these Isrealites are sounding so…uh…American.

Only by the grace of God go I and it is sufficient.

“Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.  He is not here; he has risen, just as he said.” -Matthew 28

1.Don’t be afraid….fear hath no hold.

2. He is not here ….in the tomb.

3. He has risen….defeated death.

4. Just as he said…..a man of his word!

Oh, Praise The One who paid my debt and raised “this” life up from the dead!

Jesus says in Matthew 12….

“When a defiling evil spirit is expelled from someone, it drifts along through the desert looking for an oasis, some unsuspecting soul it can bedevil. When it doesn’t find anyone, 44 it says, ‘I’ll go back to my old haunt.’ On return it finds the person spotlessly clean, but vacant.45 It then runs out and rounds up seven other spirits more evil than itself and they all move in, whooping it up. That person ends up far worse off than if he’d never gotten cleaned up in the first place.“That’s what this generation is like: You may think you have cleaned out the junk from your lives and gotten ready for God, but you weren’t hospitable to my kingdom message, and now all the devils are moving back in.”

Wondering today how “hospitable” I’ve been to His kingdom message or am I still convinced I know how it all should go. How many rooms in this “hotel heart” of mine am I leaving vacant for an old life to move back  in? 

Jesus forgive me. Help me to forgive others. Please consume me! Fill my heart with your presence!  Leave no room for a return of anger, bitterness, unforgiveness, jealousy, deceit, doubt, confusion, maliciousness or perversion of mind, body or soul! Amen.

If  I simply am who I say I am in Christ and simply believe what I claim to believe, then I would simply put my faith and trust in Him whom I simply say saved me and gives me life.

I’m taking Pete’s challenge seriously…Great stuff.

Matthew

Chpt 1:24-”Then Joseph woke up. He did exactly what God’s angel commanded in the dream: He married Mary.

Chpt 2:14-”Joseph obeyed. He got up, took the child and his mother under cover of darkness. They were out of town and well on their way by daylight.

God spoke, Joseph knew it was Him, he believed, he did. With all the “religious reasoning in the world” not to move, he moved! I can’t help but think about how often I’ve  believed, heard and knew yet sat idly by as if there were no consequences for my disobedience. Oh the consequences…..

Thank God for Joseph and his obedience.

Lord stengthen me. Show me how. Amen.
