Keeping It Real

I want to share something that happened to me last week hoping that it will give understanding to non-christian and christians. Our flesh is always ready to manifest itself. 

There is a little lake about 100 feet from our patio, it was starting to get algae so I called the golf maintenance, they did not respond or even return my call. Later I was telling my neighbor about it, I said that I was going to call and complain and call him an SOB - only I didn't use the abbreviation. Then I said that I was going to call him a MF - again, I did not use the abbreviation. Now if you knew me, you would know how much I love the Lord and think that I would never say such a thing. I will address the christians first, just because you've surrendered your life to Jesus and strive to be like Him, you will still have to deal with flesh at time until He returns. To the non-christians, please try to understand that we are not perfect but that we are being perfected. In Christ we have been forgiven, however, that does not excuse our actions when we fail. Give us a break, just love us as we love you.

Reaching Out

I would like to share something that is heavy on my heart, and that is the gangs. For thirty-nine years I have been approaching them and telling them about the love and forgiveness Jesus has for them. In all of these years, not one time have I received rudeness from them, in fact, they thank me and call me Mam. Church and others, don't you know they are searching for love and acceptance, but in all the wrong places. Just like I was before I found the Lord. I am waiting for God to give me a platform to reach more than a handful at a time. Not one time in my life did I receive a tap on my shoulder telling me there was another way, and His name was Jesus. 

You know, God talks a lot about sin in the Bible. He also talks about habitual sin that is an abomination to Him - That is sin that we keep committing and knowing that its wrong but try to convince ourselves otherwise. We all do it, but we must repent. That means stop it!
