I Love You

I was just sitting around thinking after leaving a message for my brother. I ended the call with "I Love You" and it got me thinking how many times a day do i say that to a family member. I then realized I only use that with the people I consider family. In life we meet many people that we should be saying "I love you" to. When we think that God Loves everyone of us In John 3:16 it says Yes, God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him would not be lost but have eternal life. Its a deep and profound Love Jesus goes on to say later in the book of John " John 13:34  "I give you a new command: Love each other. You must love each other just as I loved you."  So I think that we should start saying to to one another "God Loves you, and so do I" you never know that person may really needed to hear that.

Defended by God

This is the transcript from my last live broadcast

Psalms 109:1-4  Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;  (2)  For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.  (3)  They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.  (4)  For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.

In this verse David pleads with God to Hold not thy peace which means Be not silent or arise and defend my cause. David goes on to say I did good things to them, but they are doing bad things to me. I loved them, but they hated me. David felt like nothing he could say or do was good enough so David did the only thing he knew to do he went to God. He said to God stand in my defense. No matter what I say or do they accuse me of bad things. Sometimes we feel as if others are not believing us when we say we are Christians. We will all be in a position sometime in our life where are beliefs at challenged. What can we do when this happens? I know there are Atheists that can quote the bible better than I can. They often reach for verses in the bible to try to prove that the bible is wrong and they are right. I was recently faced with a message from a old friend it said “Religion is for a person who is afraid of hell, Spirituality is for the person who has gone through hell” I had to think hard about that statement. The answer that came to me from God is this.

I'm not afraid of going to hell. I have a deeper relationship with God than I ever have before in my life I want to share the love peace and understanding I have found with anyone who will listen. I think there is enough evil in the world that we could fight against it for a life time and very few people would even notice what we did. I wouldn't have to look far I could start with allot of people who call themselves Christians.

That's not a battle I think I could win. I'm just trying to get a few people to look at life and God the way I do so that they can experience the Love and peace I have found.

No matter what battles we face if we seek the defense of God in Proverbs 18:10 it says

"The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe." God has a plan for all of us. That plan is part of the greater plan God has for all mankind When we surrender our free will to God, God will guide us along the path of that plan. He will be our strength and defense along the path.

When you are in a place where you feel you are suffering ask yourself “Are you following God's will or your own will?” If you are following God's will then God has a purpose for your suffering? It may not be that the reason you are going through is for you it may be for another.

Psalms 84:11  The LORD God is our protector and glorious king. He blesses us with kindness and honor. The LORD freely gives every good thing to those who do what is right.

I suffer from Constant pain in my lower back. Back in may I walked with a cane and was in so much pain that it sometimes had me in tears. I had problems just getting out of bed. When I finally got down on my knees at an alter. I asked God to help me. From that time on I have not used the cane. My pain is more of a nuisance, It does not stop me from doing anything as long as I take my Meds.  The pain I do suffer reminds me of where I came from and how the Lord carried me to where I am. Everyday the pain gives me compassion for the suffering of others. It reminds of how much more must have been the pain that Jesus suffered for all of us. Jesus took our defense through his death. In John 3:16-18 it says  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  (17)  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.  (18)  He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

So even at the end of our mortal Lives, Jesus provides us with defense from Death and Judgment by his sacrifice on the cross.

Caring For Others

Today I did allot of things, thanks to my brother Paul and his church Newlife It started with Lunch with Big Daddy Weave and Aaron Shust at St. Matthews House. After lunch we were given a tour of St. Matthews House. Its amazing the way they help other and touch the lives of so many in the Collier county community. At this point my heart was reaching out to help in some way and it was only the beginning of the day. Our next stop was the park where the concert was. During the concert Big Daddy Weave talked about the world vision program and how he had made a difference in a child's life. It was then that God told me what to do so I made a commitment for Loving Church Online to sponsor a child. through the donations given.

The First Child is Precious. She is a 7 year old child living in Zambia.

Don't Crap in My Camp

In Deuteronomy 23:12-14 ERV it says; (12)  "You also must have a place outside the camp where people can go to relieve themselves.  (13)  Among your weapons, you must also carry a stick to dig with. Then, when you relieve yourself, you must dig a hole and cover it up.  (14)  This is because the LORD your God is there with you in your camp to save you and to help you defeat your enemies. So the camp must be holy. Then he will not see something disgusting and leave you. 

God tells us "Don't crap in my camp" think about it don't crap where the lord dwells. People are in arms about being forced to care about one another. For too long our country has been controlled by hate and greed. And if you ask me them are the 2 biggest pieces of crap in this country. Why do we put conditions on the help we are willing to give another person. How is it that we care more about the amount of profit we make that the conditions of life of our employees? If a man comes up to you and robs you on the street; do you think about the revenge you want on him or do you ask yourself what brought him to a place in life that he feels that he has to take from other to survive? If greed and hate are acceptable in our society in any form then people begin to start to accept that it is acceptable in all forms. What are you giving back to our community? Who did you help today? Do you care about the troubles of those around you? How much is enough? Are you crapping in the camp or are you helping to keep it clean and holy? If we want the Lord to dwell in our Nation we have to stop Crapping in it and start cleaning it up. Only through a loving, caring and generous heart can we clean up this camp.
