The Human mind.

The Human mind is like a ball of clay. When it is dry, it is hard as a rock. When the water of the Holly Spirit flows over it, it begins to soften. But if we do not add good things to the soften clay (like reading the word, praying, and worshiping God) that clay will return to its dry hard ball. But if we renew our minds through reading the word of God, pray, and worship him. He will make us rich and fertile soil that will remain soft, producing fruit, and prospering.

If you are not prospering or producing fruit. Maybe it is time to renew your mind by reading the word of God, praying, and worshiping God. The bible says seek after God and all things will be added unto you.

Bumps on a page.

The other day I was stopped in the street by a local teacher who was asked to teach blind Honduras youth how to read Braille. She asks if I had any or could get some materials for her to teach from. I started my search just by asking on Facebook if anyone had any or new where I can get some. I looked and found a Braille Bible in spanish. Lutheran Braille Workers are sending it to me. Each Bible takes up 5 feet of shelf space. These precias hand made Braille Bibles. These bumps on a page will not only help a teacher teach reading but show the way to Christ. Bring the lives of the blind to salvation and open opportunities for those who would otherwise be dependent for their entire lives.

Finding good dirt is hard. It take a lot to be good dirt, no rocks, no weeds, no contaminates. With good dirt the see will grow. are you good dirt? Are are you holding on to some rocks or weeds you know you need to let go of. If you are ready to let go of those rocks, He will help. just ask. He is waiting for you.

"Praise!"

We are the orchestra and God is the conductor. He has a grand plan of a symphony. And we all have a part.

Sometimes we feel like we are all alone. But we must not forget that there are others working in this grand plan. We make our music and hope it is the best and lives up to what God wants.

And sometimes we are called to be a soloist. And we feel we are not right for the job.

But God knows what he is doing and there are always others helping. We just need to keep our eyes on the conductor and he make the symphony out of all the individual interments.

Come and make music and hear the symphony of God. The name of the symphony is "Praise!"

When you want a harvest.

When a farmer wants a harvest, He prays for a harvest. He gets seed. He prepares the grown and puts the seed in to the ground. Then, he waters there the seed is. He keeps the weeds from growing faster than the seed. He watches that the insects do not eat the plant. He makes sure that the frost doesn’t get too close and kill the seed. Then by the miracle of God, the farmer sees the fruit of his labor and reaps his harvest.

What a harvest the farmer receives.

Why then do Christians pray for a harvest and plant the seed and then do nothing expecting God to do everything. Maybe God has something for us to do while we are waiting for the plant to grow. Maybe we should have prepared the ground by praying before we sew the seed. Maybe we need to water the ground or pull the weeds. Maybe we need to keep praying and keep our mind clean. And, maybe we need to wait while the harvest ripens before we take the harvest.

Are you wanting a harvest? Have you prepared the ground (prayed about it). Have you sowed your seed where he wants you to sow it? Do you continue to water it (pray for it) Do you for opportunities God might be giving you to have a harvest? Are you preparing for the harvest by keeping the commandments? Keeping a pure heart?

When you do, maybe then God will give you the harvest for which you have been praying and waiting.

Is life a roller coaster?

Roller coasters are scary until you realize that you are on secure tracks that keep you safe through the twists and turns of the ride then it becomes fun. Let God be your tracks. Then no matter how your life seems to be going you will know that He will keep you safe and have some fun. How knows where God will take you.

Are you making a mark or a shadow?

In this world we all try to leave our mark. We put together a life that we think will stand the test of time. We build houses that are made of brick or stone instead of wood because it lasts longer. We plant shrubs and lawns and trees thinking everything will last and look pretty. But how long does it all last. Sure bricks last longer than wood and trees last longer than lawns but even so how long will it lasts. Most of us go to work earn some money to go home and spend it. a car or two a house maybe a boat. I was along with everyone. Working 11 months so I can take 1 to vacation enjoy my house and thought I was doing all I was supposed to do. I went to church so I would not go to hell. Took the children in my life with me so they wouldn’t go to hell too. That was my “outreach”. Good! Right?

Yes, it is good. But is it enough? God sent his son in hops that no one would be lost. But how can they be found unless someone goes and tells them. When I finally, really, understood that scripture; I found my purpose in life. When you follow Christ you call others to Him. Not just save yourself, but reach those around you for Him. Everything else is temporary. Only discipling the lost lasts forever. Only seeing a lost soul find Christ is eternal. Everything else is like our shadow. It makes a difference as long as we are here making our mark. But when we leave so does our impact; so does our mark.

Don’t leave a shadow make an eternal difference, disciple the lost.
