Christian Life is what? a mission.

A mission is what? a ministry.

A ministry is what? a lifestyle.

If we claim to be a Christian, we claim a mission. And when we are in a mission, we have a ministry. Right? When we are in ministry out mind is set on a lifestyle. Follow?

So a Christian Life is a mission ministry that is a lifestyle.

But why do we limit outselves? Is that like limiting GOD? We do have Him inside us, right? And everything is possible with Him, so we say. Are we limiting Him?

Do we limit ourselves(or Him) in worship, in words, in prayer or even in friendships?


Example: Friendships. Why do we put limitations on our number of friends? Do we become too comfortable with just our group of friends? How much good can we do if we impact other lives than just the same group we hang out with all the time. How much of an impact can you make by just concentrating it on your current relationships? God didn't give us a spirit of Timidity. Lets not touch friends, but touch the world.

I rather not be known for the guy who hangs out with this group. Being attached to the hip. But the guy that is attached to the hip with Jesus.

Don't set limitations on yourself. But take a chance, and see where it'll lead you.
 
Romans 12:5
"...and we all belong to each other."
 
There is nothing wrong with having a close knit group of people. Jesus had the 12 apostles, and then the inner 3, Peter, James and John. But the mission of this group of people was to touch the world. Their purpose was extroverted, not introverted. When we hang out as a close group of friends with a common goal, we become a part of something bigger than ourselves.

Currently Listening
Closer
By Better Than Ezra

I went to go see my best friend graduate from Central Christian College of the Bible in Missouri. Saw some other friends as well. Got some updates bout the college and it's direction. I am sooo happy that i transferred. The more i hear bout the news from there. The more i realize how blessed i am to attend KCU.

Started my two jobs the Monday after KCU ended. It was quick...but the paychecks were coming in. I made about $2,500 this summer. Short of $500 from last yr's income. But i am happy that i atleast found a job with great co-workers.

I started the summer weighing 225lbs.

I now weigh in 195lbs.

My birthday was just another day. I believe once i getting older that day is just another day...but i love to milk out every oppurtunity i have with it.

I've been really keeping a DL this summer. A few calls here and there. But nothing to an extent of actually getting deep. Unless it was my existing close friends. I was confronted by some individuals explaining how popular i am.

ME popular?!?!!? I always wanted to be...but as a celebrity. Got to discuss this deep with my inner-self. In a sense i am. But not. I know a lot of people. I socialize a lot. People may think of me as their close friends...or only friend. Others might view me as such a loveable person and talk to me a lot. and want to be friends. But it doesn't make me popular to be friendly to others.

There's only a few of people that I, myself hold closely. Few in Missouri and a few in Kentucky. and one or so here at Home. I am still currently struggling to understand the mutual sides of friendships. I always wonder...is my feelings the same towards me of that friend? Does she view me as a close friend as i view her? It eats my mind away.

A passion has been growing so strongly. A secret love towards the lost. The lost of homosexuals, orphans and elderly. I want to evangelize to these particular groups. I wanna be a foster dad. I don't know how this passion is going to play throughout my college education. Please be praying.

I quit my job in a wk and a half. I go back to KCU in two wks.  I'm pretty much excited to room with Brian. Good things are to come in the future.
