    Last Wednesday

    Well, I have to say this last week has been very interesting indeed, a lot has happened so let me start from the beginning...

    You honestly don't know how to deal with certain situations until they actually become a part of your life, for instance, do you actually have friends that chose to willingly go against the Word of God and live a lifestyle that you can not agree with in the slightest bit? What do you do if one of your youth that you haven't seen or heard from for like 6 months walks up to you out of the blue and says "I am gay"? Do you respond in love and compassion, letting them know that you still love them as they are even though that you don't agree with their lifestyle, or do you shun them, try to cast a demon out, or tell them that they are a sinner and need to repent, maybe a combo of two or all of them? Or how about if a friend walks up to you and says "I think I am pregnant" how do you respond? What would you do if they (not knowing Christ) decided they wanted to get an abortion? How would you really and honestly treat them? I know our first response is I would love them! But is that really the case? Look deep within and truthfully answer. If a compassion and a love bursts forth, to the point where you want to cry with them, or for them then props to you...but if you can't, may I be harsh and say that you need to reconnect and examine your relationship level with Christ? All of these examples have happened to me over these last two weeks and I must say that God has taken me to the limit at times just so that He can use me to pour out His love in and through me and to give me His heart for His people, so that I can more effectively feed His sheep.

    Next, Wednesday was a good night, we had a "Together Night" where we join the Jr. and Sr. High together. This week we had a healing service, in which many people where healed. On the heals of this Friday rolls a long and I had my first Jr. High Youth "CORE" bible study. I must say even though it was just simple me on the guitar goofing up a lot the presence of God came so sweet and began to tough the lives of those whom I had invited there. God is stirring His people once again to believe for the supernatural, and to experience His manifest presence! Are you ready for it? Are you willing to give all for the sake of the Kingdom? These are questions I am asking myself, and searching scripture about, and to tell you the truth, the Word of God is shaking me to the very core of who I am and what I believe, to the point of where I ask, "Can I really call myself a true disciple of Christ? Am I exhibiting the fruit of a true believer?"

    Well all in all that has been my week in a nutshell, and now I must go, prepare for Wednesday where the title of my message is "100% in Love..." Be blessed and until next time... oh and if you have not signed up yet make sure you take April 13-15th off and come to Surrey BC.
