You scared?!

Hey y'all. I found out something interesting this past week. I have an aunt and an elder cousin who are afraid to drive through or in Atlanta. Yes. They both live in small cities so driving all over in these small cities is nothing to them. But my aunt was born in Atlanta and my elder cousin has worked in Atlanta. What has changed? I say age and tradition. They are have gotten to the point that they no longer see the advantages of viewing the great city of Atlanta on their own. If they want to come in to the city, somebody else got to drive them. What? Really?? The Bible says that God has not given us a spirit of fear but of peace and love and of a sound mind. Why do we as people allow fear to strangle us? There are people who won't go out after a certain time of the night. There are various reasons which are too many to list. But my point we should never allow fear to keep us from doing what we love best. If it is Godly. If it is not, then yeah, you best beware. Like I was saying, if has something to do with your destiny, your life, your purpose or you just want to have some good clean fun, why not do it? There is so much that we can receive from God and we want to receive it. But we have got to let go of those things that terrify us so He can really do it. If God got something for you to do that has never been done before, don't worry about what others think. They have the assignment. You do. Proceed boldly. Square your shoulders and MARCH! If God is with you, you got all the support you need. He will never let you fall. So, go ahead and be fearless. And watch your life change.

Hey y'all. I know it has been a long time since I have written. Well...I don't have any excuses other than laziness. What I have been learning is that all kinds of things surface when you start to get clean. I mean really clean. You start to see things in a whole different light. You look at life and people differently. I find myself starting to see people how Jesus sees people. People are dealing with all sorts of issues. And many are not really dealing with them. Some of them think that as long as they leave the issue alone that they are okay. Which I learned a long time ago is not true. The longer you keep pretending that things are okay while you lash out at people and do things that are unpleasing to God, the worse off you are. I have learned this. It is a good thing to let God break open your life and let Him do the surgery that needs to be done. Stop pretending as if all is well while you continue to live a life that does not look like what God would want you to have. No more being fake. This past week in Sunday school at my church we talking about meaningless worship. We learned that true worship comes from the heart. It comes from the depths of your soul. That is why Jesus said that they who worship God must worship Him in spirit and in truth. You have to have a relationship with the Father in order to worship Him. It has got to be your everything. I found out that worship is intimate praise. It is a place where it is just you and God. You are ministering to Him. While you are doing that, He is healing you. He is making you free. As you worship Him, He is replenishing parts of you that are dry and have no growth. That is what worship is. It's an everyday thing. It can't be just on Sunday or Wednesday night. It has to be everyday. Everyday He is washing you. And will wash you if you let Him. The ball is in you court.
