Keep going For the People

It was the first time something like this was done, a group of people coming together to  sing songs only written by them! That was the goal, we were all teenagers no one had a clue on how to write a song or what it took, I started it and just needed to trust GOD with the zeal to keep going. I was the one who called everyone to come together and we would only perform songs originally sourced from us, there were times we sang or played around with songs by other people, but we mostly did ours. Well I started the band during a school break, for it to keep going, I   had to keep showing up and taking up shows, and hooking us up with talents that would promote us as much as possible! I was a student earning no money, that went to college 3 hours away from my band. And it was just not a band, but a group of people finding their relationship in JESUS through music ministry, so it meant a lot for us to keep going.

Happy Easter! HE is Risen!

Thank you for riding out this Lent with me!
May The Power Of HIS Resurrection be made visible in your life!

6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

Matthew 28:6 King James Version (KJV)

Look at Trump to understand Redemption!

Whether you like it or not, GOD elected President Trump, and he had a past! GOD has forgiven him for his past, he apologized for it, but the media keeps going to his past to dig up all sorts of trash against him.

 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

John 8:36 King James Version (KJV)

Did you know any other President would have resigned in the midst of just a rumor of an affair or sexual assault, but GOD has kept him and keeps on keeping him in power! They think they can impeach him, but remember GOD will make you a table in the presence of your enemies!

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Psalm 23:5

Get ready for a Fight!

“We come to church to identify with our problems, pray for our breakthroughs, step out for a fight and come and celebrate our triumphs!”

What death really means?! "Death" #Lent Phil 3:10

I was counseling a young man, and he told me how he lost his siblings and one of his parents, I said to him, “GOD is trying to get your attention and HE will do anything to get it, death doesn’t mean a thing”! And finally he lost the other parent and his attention to GOD is one I just keep praying for….

10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

Philippians 3:10-14 King James Version (KJV)

Job lost everything to be conformable to the will and ways of GOD… Death doesn’t mean a thing! Have you noticed the human heart moves on over time after death, some hurt more than the other but at end most people move on… Because here is not our home 🏡, this life is just a stage, eternity await us…

Joy in Death? “his”

We don’t know where we are going, but they do, can you see the certainty in their face and joy in their hearts? Nik Ripken describes the Muslim official, who travelled thousands of miles to come see him and his family, during the burial ceremony of their son. Nik is a guy who tries to preach the Gospel in dangerous parts of the world like Somalia, places where Christians could be numbered and are hunted to be killed. **(It’s in his book and movie Insanity of GOD)

Going all in “Unto”

I tried to look for a way to describe “Unto” to you but the  perfect way is to use the lyrics of “Counted up the Cost” By Rend Collective! The part that has my utmost attention is “I do not need safety as much as I need YOU” “ YOU'RE dangerous, But LORD YOU'RE Beautiful” but I will chase YOU through the pain!” Now you know why I love Rend Collective! It’s my favorite band In the world! They describe the passion for JESUS in an Awesome way! Please listen to the song!

What’s your make up? “Conformable” Phil 3:10 #Lent

 I try to listen to people and hear what they are made of, when you take time to listen to some folks, you hear about movies, music, sports, family and many more. If You want to get a deeper perception of them, try to hear their initial reaction when something bad happens and you begin to hear them cuss, and they apologize and you question where did that come from?

It’s a reconstruction project by the way “Made” Phil 3:10 #Lent

Bible reading “Finish it in a Year”,  Prayer time “Pray Always”, Give “Give 10% Of what you earn”  ***Lets not forget the sowing here and there****, Serve in the Church by  being available to help here or there, love those that hate you, Sacrifice your everything for JESUS, and the list just keeps going on and on!!! The expectations of being a Christian sometimes seems enormous, tedious and maybe burdensome, but truth be told it’s a requirement.

Love is shown daily “Being Phil 3:10”

It’s funny how we love the beauty of life and not remind ourselves about the end, but most especially the joy about it.

That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

Philippians 3:10

Paul loved to live for JESUS to the very end even though it includes death, bringing yourself to the fact that what you love so much could cost you your life. It’s also funny how the best love songs have one singing about dying, as an illustration of true love.  

25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

Matthew 16:25 King James Version (KJV)

What did you give up?! For JESUS #Lent

The tradition of Lent is you give up something, which is a tradition I wasn’t raised with, some people give up food especially beef. A man told me of his wife who gave up her TV shows for 21 days. So as a JESUS fanatic the question plays in mind, I think we are both in this together and we gave up not doing anything special for lent, we tried to dive into Philippians 3:10 and look into each word (this is not the end), its meaning and relevance to our Christian Faith, we also prayed and fasted together (despite the typos and puzzling posts). Thank you for riding this Lent with me! GOD BLESS

Can your heart break for what breaks mine…. JESUS asks…

A couple students were shot and killed, some in critical condition as a shooter ran into the school gunning people down, we don’t know the reason why but the shooter was arrested and will be questioned!

In just about 25 states in 2008 in the U.S, 1 million babies were aborted, we don’t know why, but this situation is still rampant till today!

Please understand that when you see people being killed without reason it’s the same with abortions.

Philippians 3:10

Would you still like my JESUS if you were promised Joy & Pain “HIS”

Two people came to JESUS, and asked if they could reign with HIM, one on the left and the other on the right, and JESUS said

39 And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized: Luke 10:39

The same drink that JESUS promises the Sons of Zebedee, was the same cup he did not want to drink, where he prayed GOD to let the cup pass over HIM.

I’m going to own up to it! “I love the embarrassment” “of”

I was volunteering in this place and we were giving scenarios of how to handle our daily activities, then as we were doing this, a girl try to  over explain a situation and interlocked her arm into mine, and I quickly made a goofy face, like I was astound by the fact a girl will put her arm into  mine. One of the guys looking who didn’t really know me just went off saying, Light got freaked out that a girl touched him, he made it sound like I was this super religious person, and I don’t know how to handle just a casual joke! Or I maybe don’t like girls! Well for those who knew me well and those who didn’t they all knew my story, and they all knew I’m a virgin without telling, and as a guy they will always take a shot at you when they can, I have experienced this my whole life so I’m used to it up to the fact that I enjoy it, I use it to share my Faith. I even begin to feel uncomfortable when I’m no longer ridiculed for my faith, as my America friends will put it “I’m very religious”, you just need to spend a few minutes with me to find out. There has being quite a number of times I have been called to order, which is fine, I can’t keep calm about my JESUS, I Guess that’s why I write about HIM!

Can I really love you like that? "Fellowship"

I’m tired she said, I’m not looking forward for this vacation, this cruise is going to take a huge toll on me. I just got to meet this woman for less than 5 minutes and she was crying her heart out. Her husband got disabled with spinal injury, for about a couple years now, and she has to be the heavy lifter, and the part that kills her is knowing he sees himself as less a man that can’t do the things he wants to for his family.
