Will you discover the answers to why climate science is the cash cow of global politics by reading this blog? That notwithstanding, will you receive nirvanic enlightenment transforming you into an advanced example of homo sapiens? Will you improve your comedic delivery to the point where every one is hanging upon your next last word? Is there a way that appears right to a man but its step lead directly to Hades?
Only You and God know why you read this Blog. Maybe you’re seeking evidence of like minded individuals seeking the next footfall on the skinny path to deliverance? Perhaps, you think my shiny cranium would be good secondary light source for you parlor? Maybe, you are a CIA operative determined to evaluate this character that has been saying such outrageous things on the weekends that you are bound to unmask him for the brash, inadequate fool that he truly represents? Or maybe you have come in the hope of hearing some impromptu, ad-lib reference and vocal stylings reaching way back as far as Louis Armstrong.
Whatever the purpose of your visit, you are welcome to the place where the Lord allows me to put down a lot of words, many of them Holy Spirit inspired, prayerfully, hopefully sufficient to motivating you to seek a deeper relationship with God and His Holy Word of Power, Peace and Truth. There are some places that are just too pretty to work out your salvation with fear and trembling as Paul recommends. The human process of Christianity is impossible and frankly quite the messy review. It is not some easy task or appreciation for the simple life accorded those who have answered the call to Grace. Rather the Christian life is one that is antithetical and counter intuitive to mortal passage, yet holds the keys to peace within a chaotic world of circumstance.
Once surrendered this life becomes a conduit through which God’s Holy Spirit effects transformation and purpose. This short existence has been determined sufficient timing for preparation to spend eternity with a Holy and Righteous God who cannot be near sin without judging it. Therefore those who will be part of His Kingdom must be cleansed of unrighteousness and find themselves safe from His Judgment and His Coming Wrath. That is an impossible process for man to achieve, though many will mistake this path as one of achievement, works or sufficiently accumulated goodness. This is the opposite of Christianity’s intent. This process requires a life surrendered to the Hand of God to mold and make to His liking, removing the wicked and replacing it with characteristics resembling His own, therefore it resides completely outside man’s ability and attempt.
Yes, this Blog is a messy thing. Yes, you will come some days and see wisdom, truth, logic and news and then the very next moment see rhythmic declaration of Great Joy or trepidation of an insecure saint. These are not the starry eyed ramblings of a man who would be wizard or famous, but the internal outpourings of question, answer and musings of a man in love with God. I hope that this page brings to you a measure of comfort and peace and perhaps a great big slice of encouragement. Though I do appreciate your visit, please remain only if you see evidence of the Holy Spirit’s presence, for through that we may see miracles, answers and the impossible things achieved. With all my love and prayer, in Jesus’ Name.
