A True Revival

We all want a change in this valley. We all want a revival in this valley. We can not and will not have revival UNTIL we start to mend and heal our OWN sick, defeated, and hurting church. We have to fix the BODY before we can take on a new member or part. Would you want to come to an already ailing body? I surely don't. We as the BODY are supposed to be the light for this dark valley. If we are hurting and not spreading our light, how are we supposed to help others? If I am hurting, alone, and possibly afraid, why do I want to come to place that will just bring me down? I am NOT speaking as one specific church.....I am talking about the WHOLE ENTIRE BODY of Christ.

I had to share this because God has been laying this pretty heavy on my heart lately. Bottom line....We are a hurting nation....We are being lied to and we need to step up and out...Speak the truth!!

It's About Him and Love

God has been pressing upon me for the past few days that it isn't about us. It is about Him and how we are to do EVERYTHING we can to bring Him glory. Imagine, us doing things to bring Him honor. Can we stop being selfish for a minute? When will we stop asking for things from our Father? Yes, He wants to give us ALL his riches but don't you think we should work for them? Were you just handed gifts as a child or did you have to be obedient and listen? It is the same way with our Heavenly Father. Be obedient and listen to what He is calling you to do.

Our number one job is to love others. I know this is difficult at times but do you think that God has an easy job loving us at times? I know there are days where I am not easy to love but He loves me anyway. He loves me when I am selfish, afraid, mean, and angry.  Let us try and look past each others faults and love as Jesus and God loves us!
