MIrror Mirror

Say what!
I have the opportunity to share what God has taught me aomewhat frequently. I mean someone will say something about their "problem" God's Spirit usually gives me something to say. Most of the time I get the feeling what I'm saying to them is what I should be saying to myself. Looking in the mirror as such and seeing what is "right".

Why is it that we always seem to have an answers to others problems but never listen to what we say to them or apply what we already know to be the truth.

Today I spoke with a man who said he was "opening up to a change in his life and was praying for God to show him the direction to go."  "so what do you think?"  I hesitated to say what's the hold up aand fought the feeling to say he should stop waiting on the LORD to correct his bad mistakes. This guy made a BIG decision this past year, he got married. Marriaage is one of those things that if you don't prepare yourself you're going to have major problems. I'm not a marriage coounselor!

This is what is I told him. The Bible teaching the principles of God and the Spirit of God shows us what is right and what's wrong. Of course Holy Spirit recalls to us the things we need to know when we need to know things. Seems pretty simple so why is it so hard to be the person we want to be and tell others they can be? As the Kids say. "that's messed up."

Well here's my best answer it's all about faith in God and belief in oneself. Jesus was asked once what is the greatest commandment and he responded Love God and the second is love youself. Of course the greatest principle of all is that God loves you unconditionally. Right Of coruse right! So having a loving God that show mercy and provides for our every need should lead us to believing that we can be above the standard, we can live uncommonly, we can be what we want to be. Being uncommon is OK and reallly is desirable.

Today December 15, 2011 I plan to become an uncommom person. I will speak what is right and when I don't I will ask God for forgiveness and also forgive myself. I will do what I think is right and if I don't I will make things right but I will not beat myself up. I will stand with those who are deserving and cannot stand by themselves.

Touching The Soul?

Inspiration is really short in this world and then there is Timmy. It is amazing to me to see a person that lives above most of us in commitment to his God and who does not follow the standard of his profession but goes beyond any standard. His career may be short lived but his impact will last forever. This believer, this boy, is unforgettable but he is not worthy of our worship. Only our God is worthy of praise and worship.


Wanted to share this article with you.

I rest my case.

When all looks lost, Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow keeps his cool


Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow delivers a pass during the second quarter Sunday against the Bears. (Tim Rasmussen, The Denver Post)

Tim Tebow was wired for sound against the Chicago Bears as part of NFL Films ' "Sound Effects." What is most striking is how remarkably calm the Broncos' quarterback was during what has become known as "Tebow Time."

When Bears running back Marion Barber fumbled the ball away in overtime, pandemonium broke out on the Broncos' sideline. Running back Jeremiah Johnson, sitting next to Tebow on the bench, went nuts. Johnson started pounding repeatedly on Tebow's shoulder pads, yelling and screaming.

Tebow's reaction? At first he said nothing. He got off the bench and as he started walking on the field, he quietly began singing a hymn. Not above a whisper, but here the world was turned upside down in an instant and Tebow was singing.

Two cool moments: He's sitting on the bench next to quarterbacks coach Adam Gase. "Why do we have to do it this way?" Gase asks Tebow, referring to how the team is forced to continually rally from behind late.

Tebow smiles, put his right hand around Gase's shoulder and says: "It's all right. We'll figure it out, man."

Another moment comes after Demaryius Thomas lets a long Tebow pass slip through his fingers. Thomas then, and later, said he short-armed the ball and he should have caught it for a touchdown. After the incompletion, a bummed Thomas is on the bench. Again Tebow is sitting to the left.

Tebow puts his arm around Thomas and says: "You're good. Hey, no big deal. It just makes it closer for a little bit longer. You're about to catch the game-winner. And then you'll be the hero of the game."

The Devil went down to Carols

I'm a deacon at my church and I take it very seriously. More that that I take my faith in Christ and my personal relationship with Christ therefore I believe in service to the "church" not because I'm a deacon or just a member of the church but as an act of my faith. So when I was offered the opportunity to act as an usher for the Christmas program I could not say no. Not of to one night but to all five! Now I'd never done this before but I've ushered different thing before so no problem right?

Let me tell you some of the experiences I had over this three day 5 event period.

Now being a usher you are given two assigned seat for you to sit in after your area of seats have been filled. I gave my seats up 4 nights and sat on the floor to allow others to have seat for the performances. I didn't have time to leave the church between services on Saturday or Sunday and got home near to 9:00 each night. Poor me? Not a problem, because I committed to the program. That's just the way it is suppose to be. Yes? Of course yes.

Now I offer you a real life look at the people who come to "FREE" events that are meant for worship and presenting the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Of course in the form of a list!
1.Dress attire:
 Ladies come in several categories. there the "I'm afraid someone won't see me group that dress like it is the academy awards and that's OK but if you are clearly over 50 you dress length should be below 6" of your rear end!!!!!!! Good grief woman what is to point of you showing 91% of you legs and in many case leaving nothing to the imagination. By the way, most of you CAN NOT pull "the look" off so use your mind and conscience because the rest of us don't like it.
Sub group here is the women that wear a "maga coat" but take it off as soon as they are in the building only to show 57%-72% of their chest. LORD have mercy! I'm sorry about your mother's death. How do I know your mother is dead you might ask. Because if she were alive she would slap you all the way back to the closet to dress yourself respectfully.
The next group is the "I forgot about the program so I came directly from Walmart" group. Please ask Santa for some matching tops and bottom stress pants this year. And please when the coats go on sale get one that will cover you middle and remember little animals are not in style anymore.
The next group are the men. Of yes, the men don't get out of this. Camouflage is not a color and it is for hunting. Don't wear you hat in doors and if you have been wearing a hat remember what happens to your hair after you have been wearing a hat for a while.
2. Behavior group:
At your house there is a thermostat that controls the temperature. Ifyou are cold PUT YOUR COAT ON!  Don't ask me to turn the heat up when you are sitting with your coat in  your lap.
I don't give out tickets. No there is absolutely no reserved sitting. I don't have anything to do with tickets. Nothing, absolutely nothing to do with tickets. so if you want to complain about there not being enough seats then next time read that tickets are void prior to the the event starting so you best get there early before people without tickets get YOUR seat.
3. The "Be Like Jesus" group
Thank you for being so nice. I met some of the sweetest people that would give up their seat for another location so a family could sit together. That's the spirit of Christmas.
4. You take your life in your own hands if you insist on using profanity in God's house. "SHAZAM"!!!

5. If you want to fight ... come on outside. 
If you get mad at the world because you had to sit in a folding chair in a not so good place, don't take it out on me and if you do expect me to respond in like manner. Do not take a swing at me unless you want it back at you. That is for young and old alike.


Carols By Candel Light was a wonderful experience for almost all the 15000+ people that attended the program. God was glorified in so many was and i worshiped Him.
