Wedding Song for the Lord!

Stain Stick

Ok I was captivated this morning by a song that was on the radio, "Restored" by Jeremy Camp. That word itself is so profound, Restored, the bringing back something to it's original beauty. WOW, God is our ultimate restorer, when I was so broken, so dirty, so tainted, polluted, he brought me back, he restored me. How sweet it is to see these dirty rags, this mess of a human being, and look unto the heavens and see this great "stain stick"!

WE ARE LAZY AND LOST!

"What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. "Ecclesiastes 1:9

Why is that we think our world has changed so much? I hear it every where I go! "Well times have changed, so we need to listen to the change and apply it to God word" WHAT! No, please let not be unorthodox here, the only thing that has changed is maybe some technology here and there but that’s about it. Sinful man is still the same, we are still fallen. In my federation class today we talked about the divisions and the separations between the churches. How people these days try to put the world view, our culture in a since, and intermingle it with God word. For example, some things that "some" people don't see eye and eye on. I will play devils advocate for a moment. So is it ok for women to be pastors and homosexuals to be deacons? If society is saying that we should love all, and everyone is equal, and we don't fallow the Bible word for word, because women don't cover their heads and men cut their hair? Well we need to love others and treat all the same and meet them where their at right? NO ...these are immoral Christians, I believe God clearly says that if a person in calling them self a believer in Christ and is living out false teaching they need to rebuked, so that their life may be spared!""My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, 20remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover over a multitude of sins." James 1:19-20.

What is our own country coming to! I am not surprised, all over history we have fallen far from Gods' truths, but that’s because this is not heaven! We are always going to try and separate Church from State, but as believers we need to keep them together! Not because we need to press our beliefs on our country but because we have the fear of the Lord in us. If we say "Oh I dont want to preach to my neighbor or even our family" then we dont fear hell! I am not saying to preach the gospel down peoples throats, but hey make the most of every oppertunuty I am just asw guilty if this). The Lord knows their is false teaching out their that contradict what his word says but that is why he wants to use us as his tools to bring truth to the lost. Not that he can't do it all by himself but because that is his plan and purpose for his children. We say that we are a Christian nation, but what does that mean, I would rather them say that we are a pagan nation who has Christians amongst them. I am just sick to my stomach with people giving Christ a false name, these immoral Christians that are defiling Gods name! When I get so upset about this I turn to the Lord for wisdom and for a national revival, I know this is probably not going to happen but one by one Christ followers can keep the word of GOD intact and not distorted. I know that no matter what man does they can never take any power or glory away from God! We should all personally execute God’s ordinances, and walk in Gods ways then we can lead others to the truth as well. Lets not be lazy but live life in excellence!

THE JOY OF SINGLENESS!

So the things that a runner thinks about....Its been an intersesting week between school,work, and life just happening in the middle.God's teaching me alot about what it means to be the Women of God that he has called me to be, for his Glory and for his puropuses,not my own. You know I ve had a major peace recently about being single. Don't get me wrong I can't wait for the day that I meet the man that is going to be my future husband, who know si might ahve already met him...but right now I am being able to be a great friend, I have no one to answer to except God of course. The other night I was getting ready for bed and I thought to myself, wow I have such a routine, wash my face brush my teeth, get my stuff ready to run for the morning, read a little and then lights out, (I know so exciting) but too me I love routine, I do like to be spontaniouse sometimes though, and well..ok so theres not too much of that but I wouldnt mind it..So anyways getting back to the single thing, I love the life that God has granted me and the time that I get to spend with others and him is great. I know that this season of my life can't be waisted on thinking of the future but truly grasping and taking full advantage of this time. And the cool thing is I am truly enjoying others and GOD so much right now! I know that I will go through a stage where I will realy want some companionship but I will not think of that right now I will, live like the marathon of life is ending in 4 hours!
