Listen to Lecrae, he won't lead you astray.

Its 5:46 in the morning; tossin and turnin; chest burnin; sermons in my head keep reoccurring; havin visions in my head of a kid cryin at the feet of the father for all the wrong things that he did; now I'm sweatin in my sheets, cant sleep; my mind keeps
tellin me I'm 6 feet deep; don't remind me; even though I'm still alive I can't tell; the way I'm livin my life I feel I'm goin to hell;
God, they tellin me I should except you; that you had to leave the world cause the world left you; reason I can't change; like a mystery to me; so I make-believe there really is a heaven for a G; even though they say you loved the world so much you shed your blood; God, I feel I'm too messed up for love; they tell me come as I am; but i smell like smoke; my whole life is full of sin cause its all I know;
the Bible told me you died for my sins; if I believe in Christ to save me from the end; but I'm scared to ask you to save me; cause my hearts so evil; I've got thoughts just full of hatred; hurt from people;
I thought that first I had to clean up my life;
now I'm here and I just gotta cling to the light; I'm ready to do it but, I pray you understand; my life is a mess, will you take me as I am.

Will you take me as I am; I know the way I'm livin is wrong, but I can't change on my own tryin to make it alone; I wonder, how could you love me when my lifes so ugly; but you came down and died for me.
Will you take me as I am; I know the way I'm livin is wrong, but I can't change on my own tryin to make it alone; I wonder, how could you love me when my lifes so ugly; but you came down and died for me.

Im still tryin to be the man my daddy never taught me to be; I'm grown up now, life ain't what I thought it would be; I made many mistakes in my past I can't fix; now I'm starin at this crucifix, tatted on my wrist;
Is it true what they tellin me or am I just crazy; did you bleed on the cross for my sins to save me; but why would you die for me; my whole life I've been workin for Satan while he fed lies to me;
And now im hearin too much; tryin to get in true touch; about a love that can change me; I'm all screwed up; figured hell is what I deserve; but your word says we all fall short; so I guess we all ought to burn; teach me I want to learn; how you can save a wretch like me before death says its my turn; I think I finally understand; no matter my past you'll still take me as I am.

Will you take me as I am; I know the way I'm livin is wrong, but I can't change on my own tryin to make it alone; I wonder, how could you love me when my lifes so ugly; but you came down and died for me.
Will you take me as I am; I know the way I'm livin is wrong, but I can't change on my own tryin to make it alone; I wonder, how could you love me when my lifes so ugly; but you came down and died for me.

If I had a few last words to give; I'd be tellin people the reason to live, the reason to die; united with the King in the sky; this life is passin us by, I've got no reason to lie;
You'll never give the world enough; they'll hunger for more; they're fixin their ways of nothin to settle the score; more security than the man who left you; or more love than the mommas who kept you; he'll always accept you; be everything you're supposed to; let Christ rule your heart mind body and soul because He chose you; and
if the world dont know you; it dont matter, your God's child and He'll never disown you; your purpose on earth is far from worthless; thats why you glorify like your lifes been purchased; and it dont matter if the world dont see us; we still mean the world to Jesus.

Will you take me as I am; I know the way I'm livin is wrong, but I can't change on my own tryin to make it alone; I wonder, how could you love me when my lifes so ugly; but you came down and died for me.
Will you take me as I am; I know the way I'm livin is wrong, but I can't change on my own tryin to make it alone; I wonder, how could you love me when my lifes so ugly; but you came down and died for me.

Christ through Faith.

                        I have been reading through the Gospels lately and have been finding that there really is only one thing that is needed, only one thing that matters and that is just seeking after this man Jesus.  His call to come after him (Luke 9) is huge.  Its to a life abandoned to him and him alone.  The farther I go down this walk it becomes more and more clear, the haze begins to clear and I realize that this world will not satisfy the things that I desire. I am left un-content when I deal with the world. You’ve felt it.  All of you out there come after this man Jesus and be truly satisfied.  The world is full of counterfeits.  I look at society and see people chasing after everything and anything, not because they need it but because they are empty and it will satisfy them for the time being.  In God's word we see that only He can truly satisfy  (Jn 4:13).  So come after Jesus.  He invites all to his table, we must choose to come.(Mat. 22:1-14)

Luke 10:38-42

“As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him.  She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said.  But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made.  She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself?  Tell her to help me!  “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed.  Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”

 

Psalm 24:7

One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord.

Daily Thoughts For Disciples (Christian Classics)

We know that all things work together for good to those who love God.”

 Romans 8:28

 

“Do you remember how Paul never wearied of saying, “Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit?”  Recall what Jesus Christ said about the historic temple which is the symbol of the body; He ruthlessly turned out those that sold and bought in the temple, and said, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer’; but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’” Let us apply that to ourselves.  We have to remember that our conscious life, though only a tiny bit of our personality, is to be regarded by us as a shrine of the Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit will look after the unconscious part we do not know; we must see we guard the conscious part, for which we are responsible, as a shrine of the Holy Spirit.  If we recognize this as we should, we shall be careful to keep our bodies undefiled for Him.” – Oswald Chambers,  (Daily Thoughts for Disciples)

Whats up every one? So it is christmas break and i am having a blast. It's Christmas eve and my brother, dad and i fixed our gate. this pobably isnt a big deal to everyone but it is a huge thing for me. For the last 3 months i have had to chase my dogs that have escaped and run away at least 3 times a week. Today when my dogs got out and ran away i got so tired of it that i drove to Lowe's and got some stuff to fix it. Thank God!!!! Hey Remeber what Christmas is all aboot its all aboot Jesus coming to earth. Just take some time and reflect on that. Think aobut it, if it wasnt for Jesus coming we would all be up a stream without a paddle. This day that is "all about the birth of Christ" has been plagued with materrialism. Lets keep our hearts and minds focused on Christ.
hey if your in town over the break give me a call and we will hang out. We'll do something crazy!! Thats a gurantee.
God bless!!!
