I wonder do YOU know HIM?

Well folks its a simple question. DO YOU KNOW HIM? I do and man oh HOW I LOVE HIM! Who do you ask? Just watch the video.



As some of you know Shannon has gone to Indy for the week to enjoy some time with her father and her family in that area until she goes to the Great Banquet on Thursday. This is the same event that i attended last Nov. and for the first time met Jesus. How my life has changed. What a blessing. I know some of you guys reading this are still a little shocked how i could now be a Christian. Well the answer is simple once you know Him you cant deny him. For those of you who want to learn more about Him. Ask me. Call me. Txt me and Facebook me, heck better yet call out for him.

In my small group at church we discussed how does the world perceive Christians. Well it got me thinking how did i look at Christian before I became one. I started to stereotype Christians as people who were judgmental, who were condemning, who where hypocrites. I thought the bible was a book about how to live your life with as little fun as possible and if you didn't do this you were going to hell and if you didn't do this God would not love you. I can't help but to laugh a little at that last statement because when i actually sat down with my own bible for the 1st time. This is what i saw.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

-1 Corinthians 13:4

Now does that sound like no fun? Does that sound threating? Does that sound cold? I look at that passage as a guide book to life. God created us to love one another. I want to challenge every one of you to print off this passage or memorize it and actually live by it for one week. I want you guys to focus on just this simple passage and report back to me next week. Let me know how it worked for you. You will be shocked how easy this challenge is amazing to see how quick it spreads. You want to have a great week? Simply Love one another. With that said remember help control the pet population have your pet spayed or neutered.
