WOW, It sure has been a while. I started reading the bible again today. Last night at church we went through a lot of feelings stuff and one was love. I wasnt paying a lot of attention to what the guy up front was saying but more to what i was reading. I was reading in the wrong verse. I read ROMANS 12 1-8. Richard i think was his name wanted us to read rom 12:9. but i really was paying attention to 1-8.
So i havent been the best person since we got out here. I have been using foul language, looking at porn, reverting back to were i came from, yelling at my wife and kids, Just not happy with life, living in complete frustration, frustrated that i cant find a job, frustrated that my landlord still has his stuff in my garage, angry with myself for moving out here and not staying with friends, angry with my family, Just like i was before my baptism.
I beleive that God wanted me to see this. Its romans 12:3. i changed over to the message to get a little clearer message and it stood out right away. So here it is:
3I'm speaking to you out of deep gratitude for all that God has given me, and especially as I have responsibilities in relation to you. Living then, as every one of you does, in pure grace, it's important that you not misinterpret yourselves as people who are bringing this goodness to God. No, God brings it all to you. The only accurate way to understand ourselves is by what God is and by what he does for us, not by what we are and what we do for him.
So what have i done for God since i got here? I have gone to Church and to midweek.
What has God done for me? Well. He has put my family in a house that is paid through september, provided money, provided food, had people help with my resume, provided us a great family group, provided hot cooked meals, provided us money to pay our bills, He is keeping us all healthy despite no medical insurance, we havent lost our cars (yet), The weather has been great so we dont need to run the air,and so much more, God is just amazing.
It is very hard for me to sit here and try and see all of the positive things that God has provided us while i keep letting myself get pulled down. Any words of encouragement from my brothers would help. I love you all and pray God is doing amazing things in your life.
I am going to post everyday. I need to so i keep my head in the bible and focus on the good in my life.
And just in case you are wondering, i am still smoke-free, going on 8 months 8-28-09 Reply to this

i have read this over and over------the do-do list. I felt like there was something i needed to hear and God was pointing me to it but i couldnt figure out what he wanted for me to see or hear. So i kept on reading it over and over. Finally i changed versions over to the message and i understand better i think. Its not me that chooses to sin but the sin in side of me that leads me to sin. I need to get back to were i was in Atlanta. I need to get back to the happyness that i felt back then. I hope one day one of my brothers will read this and blog back.
14-16I can anticipate the response that is coming: "I know that all God's commands are spiritual, but I'm not. Isn't this also your experience?" Yes. I'm full of myself—after all, I've spent a long time in sin's prison. What I don't understand about myself is that I decide one way, but then I act another, doing things I absolutely despise. So if I can't be trusted to figure out what is best for myself and then do it, it becomes obvious that God's command is necessary.
17-20But I need something more! For if I know the law but still can't keep it, and if the power of sin within me keeps sabotaging my best intentions, I obviously need help! I realize that I don't have what it takes. I can will it, but I can't do it. I decide to do good, but I don't really do it; I decide not to do bad, but then I do it anyway. My decisions, such as they are, don't result in actions. Something has gone wrong deep within me and gets the better of me every time.
21-23It happens so regularly that it's predictable. The moment I decide to do good, sin is there to trip me up. I truly delight in God's commands, but it's pretty obvious that not all of me joins in that delight. Parts of me covertly rebel, and just when I least expect it, they take charge.
24I've tried everything and nothing helps. I'm at the end of my rope. Is there no one who can do anything for me? Isn't that the real question?
25The answer, thank God, is that Jesus Christ can and does. He acted to set things right in this life of contradictions where I want to serve God with all my heart and mind, but am pulled by the influence of sin to do something totally different. Reply to this

I jus love both parts of this passage. If i pray without a single doubt in my mind, and full faith, anything i pray for will be answered. Then in the next part it says that you must forgive others in order for yourself to be forgiven. Reply to this

Romans 9 is not to encouraging, talk about predestination! Before Rebekah twins were even born God decided who He would love and who He would reject. It makes you wonder if we have any choice in the matter. As the scripture goes on to say, who are we to argue with the creator. This passage of scripture says that some are born to do good and others are born to be rejected from God but used for His purpose, to show His power, so that He can show His fame throughout the earth. It makes you wonder if we are chosen to be God's people for the good,or if we are chosen for the bad. Even with the destine for destruction "he is very patient with those on whom his anger falls, who are destined for destruction." We struggle in times of good and bad alike, knowing we are God's chosen assuming we are chosen for good and not destruction. can we change our destination? Do we know our destination? I say yes to the first and no to the second. How can I say yes to the first when scripture says "20, No, don’t say that. Who are you, a mere human being, to argue with God? Should the thing that was created say to the one who created it, “Why have you made me like this?” Good question. Who do we know that successfully argued with God? Abraham argued with God for the righteous in Sodom and Gomorrah, argued it from 50 to 10. Predestination or not I think God has a plan and hopefully we are all in this for the good of everyone and not just set on destruction as part of God's plan.
We have no idea what part of God's plan we are. We could be loved like Jacob or reject like Esau, who knows. All we can do is try to follow the word as best we can. Follow the greatest command and life will be good.
In the book of Matthew chapter 22 verse 36 thru 40, a man comes to Jesus and asks him which is the greatest commandment in the law. Jesus answers the man and says, " Love the Lord thy God with all your heart, soul and mind" and then he goes on to say, the second greatest is like it, "Love your neighbor as yourself."

I was speaking to my brother the other day about accepting the job at midas. He said "now watch,since you have accepted the role at midas companies will start calling." Well guess what all, I got a call from NAS Lemoore for a Heavy Mobile Equipment repairer. Pray for me to be able to interview well for this position it would be an awesome job to accept.
So as for my first day on the job. It was just alot of computer training and listening to policies and procedures and what not. I still dont understand why i let the guy talk me into service advising again. ANYWAY.
So off to Romans 9.....wow there are so many references back to the OT. Thats about all i have to say. I need to start studying the OT soon so i can get a better understanding of the NT. So i am going to skip to Romans 10 now so you all have something to write about tomorrow.
Ok so 10 is also full of OT. But i do have to say "JESUS IS LORD" no doubt about it.
So i have a question? ..... Who wants to go old school and read about Moses?
I DO!
well if no one else does can someone let me know where to start? I dont think that i am understanding completly how relevent romans is because of all the OT references. i think that i need to read about Moses and Isaiah so it will all be clearer. Hopefully. Hope all of you are doing great physically and especially spiritually.

I think that it was option two. The midwives were afraid of God, So do you think that they might have taken there time to get to each house to allow the mothers to birth there children and then remove the child before there arrival? Or maybe there fear was so strong that they would let all the children live. I dont know i wasnt there, we can only speculate what they did.

word:Noun the Word the message and teachings contained in the Bible Whos word do you follow.
