What Is Inside You?

Jesus told the people, "What comes out of a man is what makes him 'unclean.' For from within, out of men's hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and make a man 'unclean'" Mark 7:15, 21-23

Are you clean? Are you a child of God struggling with these sins. Be of good courage you are not alone. Society today has caused many including Gods children to loose hope, peace and most of all strength and faith. I have been in the pool of some of these same sins but I praise God that He is a forgiving God and I can bow down and humble myself, repent and ask for forgiveness knowing that the sin is remembered no more and I can turn away. That is God. No where in the word of God does it say you will not suffer but on the contrary it does say, you will suffer, for My sake. And in that suffering we have a choice. A choice to believe what God says or what the world says. We have the choice to stand in the perfect will of God knowing that yes, we will fail but we can get up and dust off our stuff and move on.

The message is clear that we must guard out hearts, minds and souls. We must allow God to continue to go before us even when all hell is breaking loose around us and in us, do not loose the focus of the mission God has. We must remember that with each blessing there is a curse. With each step you take, the road is not always smooth. The highways and byways are full of people on the fast track to no where all the while mentally thinking that the mission they are on is the important one. Is it? Have you consulted the creator? Have you listened to His promptings for your life?

Remove anything and anyone who will distract you from Gods purpose for your life. Get back into focus even in the storm and remember the storm does pass. Speak goodness, live in the fruits of the spirit. Galatians 5:22-23.

You can not afford to not speak life.

Spectators Never Win

1 Corinthians 9:24-26 in the NLT Paul tells us, “Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing”. I am reminded with every breath, the race I am running. I know that God has given me the vision and because He alone is omnipotent, having unlimited power, I have won, I just have to run. I may stumble and fall, I may get scratched up and bruised, but run I must. An athlete does not go into a race with doubt and fear. They are not concerned with who is cheering them on. A runner cannot focus on the runner next to them thought they are aware that they are there. A runner is focused on the run, the finish line, and the score board that tells them if they have beaten a previous record for the win. Being a runner on the track is the same as

I Won't Complain

After a few work days of buses not showing up for their scheduled stops, me getting home close to 2 hours later than normal, and no good sleep I'm reminded still, how good God is. Even the periodic snaps of depression and anxiety haven't caused me to forget how good God is. The key is encouraging myself because all storms pass. It amazes me to see so many people unaware of the true effects of mental illness. They tell you, get over it. They are the ones who have no debilitating physical or educational knowledge of the struggles. They don't understand the fight everyday to remain in a visual normal state of mind with tending to the tasks requiring your presence. They can't understand why you cry for no apparent reason. Unaware that some wish to lay down at any given time to sleep hoping to never awake again. Unaware that at any moment a fuse can blow in ones mind and all hell can be unleashed. Unaware that they may see beauty or bronze, while a depressive is seeing

Win The Race With Endurance

Today has been a good day. How many of you get up in the mornings and say this? Do you get up with anticipation and drive to do all that you can in peace, or do you get up dreading the day before it even starts? You have a choice to either be grateful or in torment. After a great call with a friend I haven't seen or talked to in over 30 years until a few weeks ago spoke so much life and confirmation in to me today. I was reminded about endurance and running the race that God has placed me in. This race is nothing about what I want, it's about what His will is for me and nothing more. You see, we have to surrender our will for His will because as you know, God's will is the platform in which we have been placed at the starting line to run and not faint or grow weary. We been called and hand picked for a time such as now. Its urgent and immediate. Are you running to it or from it? The past few months have been challenging on many levels and with these challen
