Hello everyone, its a Saturday evening and I’m here writing. At this moment I am being drawn to share something with you. The question is where to begin. Or maybe even how. I thought about starting with how I enjoy watching movies. Tonight I was watching “I can only Imagine.” This must be the forth or fifth time I have watched it. In the movie Bart talks about his reason for letting someone else sing it. It was because he wanted the message to get out there. Folks, we have a message to get out. Our society needs this message. The Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Our society today is messed up and badly. I don’t even know if our country has ever been so backwards. The Bible talks about good becoming evil and evil becoming good. We live in this right now. Christians are being persecuted more so now then ever before. Or at least in a very long time. Our world has become even more self centered. All of this is contrary to scripture that states in Mark 12:28-31 which is the section on the Great Commandment. In it we are to love Jesus and then our neighbor. This is only one part. How about the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is there for us so we can help others. Making it about others even yet.
We need read the Bible. Get so acquainted with it that it pours out of us. Get so close to God that we can’t help but to share His Gospel with everyone. Though this applies to us all, I am directing this toward men in particular. For we as men have failed miserably to do our part.Its time to take the myths of being a man and put them in the garbage where they belong. Real men cry. Real men pray. Real men can be emotional. Stop talking about it and do it. Time is short and we will be held accountable for what we do and don’t do. The gifts God has given us need to be used for His purposes. His will and His Glory. The world needs us to be God’s vessels of His message.
Take the time to ask God about your gifts. We all have them. Now is a good time to start using them. Use them to build the Body of Christ. Use them to edify the body. Use them to share the good news. I have read the ending and God wins. When God wins we win. Isn’t that enough to talk about. People want to be with a winner. They just need to let go of themselves and take hold of Jesus. The true winner.
Be encouraged to start right now and get your relationship with God going to a new level. When you let God be God in you things will happen. And besides, good things come with obedience. Don’t wait for later. It never comes.
Be blessed, Ken
