Thank God that His Love is not like our “love”!

If i don’t do this, who will?  If i don’t do this NOW, then when will I?

I DON’T HAVE TIME TO WASTE

Because every day people are struggling and dying around me, and I’m not giving them the cure-Jesus, the Son of God who died to give life-how selfish is that?

We follow people on twitter

We follow people on tumblr

Why can’t we seem to follow God?

I love singing.. in fact, i love singing so much i learned guitar so that i could sing with it and write my own songs and HOPEFULLY, glorify my God through it. I lead worship at my youth group for a while and now that we have a new youth pastor i play bass with him in our band.   One thing God has laid on my heart though is that He doesn’t need a singer. He doesn’t even want another song.  No, what He wants is someone who will follow Him with every second of their life, and sacrifice IT ALL. 

He doesn’t need a singer… He doesn’t need a song… He wants you and me to follow Him with everything we have!

I’ve noticed that, because i seem to be one of those obviously Christian guys out there, and i try to be a leader (which is a good thing), many people come to me saying things like “well, this persons an atheist” or “she’s a muslim” and i brace myself for the next part “i told them that they needed to accept Christ. That they were stupid for not believing! I told them ‘i hope i see you in church!’” 

Now, Telling someone about Christ who doesn’t know Him, I am ALL for that! that is what we are here for!!! Because there is only ONE true way to God, and that is Jesus Christ. However, my problem comes when they talk about how dumb that person is for not believing, and they expect me to be like “yeah! you tell em! TURN OR BURN!” What’s most frustrating is that MANY, i mean almost ALL of these people, i would seriously doubt their salvation, and yet they are talking to these people about something that they don’t fully understand. 

I have to show them, with love hopefully, that as Christians we have to look at ourselves and realize “hey, i was just like that person at one point, they need love, not someone beating them over the head with a “gospel” that more often than not isn’t really true gospel. Look in the mirror (if you know Christ) and ask yourself “what is actually different about me, than this or that person?” I hope you see that the ONLY reason you are different is BECAUSE of Christ, not by any works you did. The funny thing is, i’m being a hypocrite even now, but im trying to get better!

(yes, i am stealing a little from Lecrae)

“Truth is relative to all of us right? I believe what i believe and you believe what you believe… Right?” Let me ask you this, If what’s true for me is true for me, and what’s true for you is true for you.. What if mine says yours is a lie?

“There IS NO truth.” You’re saying that that statement IS truth!

“If God is good he should come and stop all of this evil if He really can.”

Oh, He can! But evil is anything that’s against God, down to the little lie you just told, the thought you just thought. Do we want him to stop it all? or just a little? If God destroyed evil, you and me would be gone in an instant!

Dear father help me understand

That the last thing you need is another band

Still one more song, it won’t take long

Then ill throw up my hands

I know i need a change of heart

Just look at this world its falling apart

Lord help me be, everything they need

Let me be Your work of art

Jesus said “I am the way the truth and the life”
