Add caption The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10 (NIV) Hey there, everyone. This morning at church our pastor spoke about how to keep from having regrets or making excuses when it comes to the Great Commission. I have had myriad excuses for why I haven't broached the subject.  All of my excuses are inadequate.When He speaks to me on the day of judgement, I would hate for Jesus to ask why I hadn't told people about what He has done for me. I would feel ashamed that I had declared  'I love Him,' but I hadn't backed up my words with action. Our excuses keep others from accessing the forgiveness that He holds out to all of us. Our excuses result in sin and in regrets. Do you like having regrets? Jesus said that If we love Him, then we would follow His commands. Our job is to tell others that He has redeemed us so that they will see that He has made a way to the throne-...

Return to the Lord before it is too late for you. Question: How does God get the attention of His people when they are disobedient and fallowing their own ways? What do you think? Leave a comment, let me know.

Don’t Blame God for Your Cowardice

Don't Blame God For Your Cowardice Here is a direct link to an article that concerns all of us. We need to evict cowardice in ourselves,  because we are the Church. We each have the responsibility to come to the aid of our pastors, and raise the sword of the Spirit against the lies of the evil one. Often Christians caution their pastors about how they should preach and what they should preach, but some cautionary statements such as the examples in this article are straight from the pit. Also, when we are afraid to do the will of our Father because we are listening to the lies whispered into our own ears, we need to raise the sword of the Spirit against the spirit of fear. So, Be Brave and evict cowardice.
