The majority of people hate the name of Jesus.

But God absolutely and eternally adores him.

Shocking news here: this world does not belong to humans. This world belongs to the living God.

Think about it a moment.

Even to the point where you deny the existence of God, you live in his world.

Isn’t it stupid to hate God’s son while you live and breathe in God’s creation.

What do you think the consequences are of such things that men do?

Thrusting forward into the darkness

I never know if anything I write is gonna be useful to somebody else but sometimes this is almost a journal to me. God knows, I don’t know.

But I want to share today because the urgency is on my soul.

All my life. I can’t remember a time when I wanted to be on this earth. I certainly don’t want to be here now. It’s not that suicide was really a part of my heart because when a person commits suicide they steal from possibilities and they steal from the living God. And who can say what value lays dormant in the mind?

i’m 73 this year. So the beckoning of “somewhere else“ has been raging in my soul for a long time. Like a great many others I’m getting comfortable with the uncomfortable. Not that I just lay down and give in, doing what everyone else is doing, I’m comfortable with the stress of still not wanting to be here.

There are hundreds of thousands who make up reasons to be here. Let them have what they think they need. But I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ which has purchased my soul for something far greater. Frankly, I see no other alternative. And no one has an alternative to Christ. What they have is an imaginary medication to love staying here.

life sucks but that’s what it is

moment of happiness that’s what is

terror that’s what is

joy that’s what he is

on and on and on, we could go.

but even that is what is

you won’t find peace trying to change what is.

you either accept it or have anxiety because you can’t.

Peace with God?

you either have it or you don’t. But isn’t that what is?

you’ll find a lot more peace in yourself if you accept these things as they are found. Stop trying to change. Ask Jesus to help you accept what is yours. Take what he sends as what is.
Watch it, eat it, live it, bow low to it, it is what is it was not it is not holding in the future. it is.

Living in the NOW counts for everything. IT’S NOT WHAT HAS HAPPENED. IT’S NOT WHAT IS COMING. TAKE STOCK OF WHAT IS THAT’S WHERE GOD IS FOUND. There you are allowed and expected to pay attention.

You can’t know how evil this generation is until you try to do the speed limit on open roads. After about an hour, you will notice maybe one person was doing the speed limit with you. Everyone else is breaking the law on purpose. There is no respect in this generation for holiness. Try it and prove me wrong.

Holiness is not shining with a halo and one finger stuck up in the air. Holiness is doing what’s right no matter the circumstance. You are either trying to obey the laws of man (thus the laws of God upon us all). Or you are just like those whom God will judge.

You don’t have to prove me right. You don’t even have to care, But there is a serious consequence to a life full of complacent carelessness. Such behavior is called lawlessness.

I don’t hate those folks, though I am very deeply disappointed taking note of the people around me. If that’s true of this pathetic man, isn’t it also true of our holy God?

They search the Internet to fight against Christ. Hoping beyond hope that they find a fiery argument. They pass their hours ignoring anything but themselves. What a ridiculous waste of time.

Time.
In the space of eternity, it’s horribly sad how much we get. I’m 73 this year and I’m amazed not only that I’m still alive but how fast the time has gone.

Many of them that fight against Christ will find the moment of their death lot sooner than they think. Near the end they will look back and be amazed, just like me.

Then eternity and encapsules everything they are. They will hold in their empty hands, all the regret of their lives. No matter what they think they’ve accomplished, no matter how right they think they are, reality speaks as only reality can.
And there’s nothing I can do to help them.

If a person is not controlled by the living, God‘s holy son, Jesus that person is controlled by the enemy of God. Folks don’t understand, it’s not a question of; I’ll take my chances at the judgment. Only those who want to be controlled by the son of God Christ Jesus will enter. The rest will go to where their master also will go.

If you take your chances. You’ll end up in hell. Again, there is no chance to take that’s going to help you become anything more than fuel for the flames. You can do nothing to save yourself. If that was false there would’ve been no reason for Christ to sacrifice himself on a cross.

What louder message do you need to get your head wrapped around this issue? Submit to Christ or become the devil‘s cannon fodder. There is no such thing as a plastic cannonball. You were either one or the other.
