It's been a while...

So, it's be a while since my last post. I have been thinking, reflecting, meditating, and praying about what to say to God's people. I'm teaching the youth tomorrow at Journey Church of Acworth (my church) and I just thought I would share a little bit with the world of what God has given me.

If someone can grasp even a small portion of who God is and the power that is within you through Jesus, they can change the world. He created the entire universe, but yet he cares more about YOU than any thing else in it. I like to think of it this way: God has things for me to do while I'm on the earth and he has a huge warehouse that says my name on it filled with stuff he has for me to use while I'm here for his work. I think the great thing that could happen is when I get to heaven Jesus would show me a warehouse with my name on it that is empty and he would say that I used all he had for me to use on the earth. It's not good enough for me to go to church on Sunday, or every other day the doors open, and then not tell one person about the kingdom of God. It's not good enough for me to pray once a day before I go to sleep and wonder if God heard it. It's not good enough for me to read my bible once a week and think that I'm somebody and know God's will.

It's about time. It's about passion. It's about the kingdom of God that is inside of me. It's about spending every moment in the presence of God! It's about making someones else's life better because your in it. God is love, so what should I be? LOVE. Love for fellow man. Love for my enemies. Love for the people that get on my nerves and love for my best friends.

God wants to use you and me. God wants you to know him just as well as he knows you. I want to challenge every person that reads this to put as much time and energy into your relationship with God as you do everything else in your life. Stir up a passion in your life for God so strong that you can't talk about anything else, that you can't think about anything else. I'll do the same.
