I am the person that messes up so much, that it no longer bothers me to tell others I'm sorry, and I have learned to just lay those mistakes at Jesus’ feet. For so many years I would forget to lay my burdens down (I carried them), and believe me when I say this – THEY WEIGHED ME DOWN.
Although my writings come from my heart, and I believe with all of my heart that my writings will do no harm, the truth of the matter is this - sometimes they do. For example, an alcoholic can hear me critique the church and run with it, then go tell others that I said they didn’t need to go to church at all. Folks, I attend church myself and I enjoy it. But, the truth of the matter is this - I didn’t always enjoy church, walk away from church service NOT hurt, or in a Godly way.
For many years I smoked weed right before church, then went home and smoked more weed, knowing I was disobeying God. If church couldn't help me with my addiction, then well... the church was not giving me the healing I needed.
Please let me say this - I should have listened to my teachers at church. They told me to read my Bible and pray everyday, and I didn't listen to them. I did pray, but I didn't read my Bible (which is like breathing and not eating). When I don't read my Bible, both in the morning, and in the evening, depression takes over.
If you are eating (reading God's Words) only on Sundays, then my friend, you will STARVE yourself, and you will NEVER get better!!! As I developed a friendship with God (by spending time with Him), that is when I was healed. God wants a relationship with each one of us, a true friendship (not a bunch of fancy prayers, just talk to Him, let Him know what's on your heart.
Don't play hide and seek with God. Don't hide from Him while you do what you want to do, then seek His protection, love, grace, mercy... God will do whatever it takes for you to love Him with all of your heart (period). Matthew 22:37-40, Daniel 7:13, Jeremiah 29:11-14, Deuteronomy 6:5, ...
As with the inspiration ‘Psalms of Gossip’, the truth is that Christians (that attend church for many years) can and will hurt you with gossip. Church is full of blessings, wonderful people, and full of sinners Romans 3:23). It’s hard sometimes to read the truth, and it’s just as hard to type it and send it out, but it’s true. There are many lost souls, out in this world, that will never attempt ‘church’ again, and I’m afraid they will never try Jesus again either.
In my own life (age 38), it required me to read all of the RED WORDS (what Jesus said) in the Bible, to figure out who Jesus really was / is. And, I was the child that attended church service all of my life and spent several years at a
Third, I sang the B-I-B-L-E song for years, but it wasn’t until I was about 25 years old that I realized that B-I-B-L-E spelled Bible! (or what the song was all about), even though we YELLED BIBLE at the end of the song. Family members still laugh at me today from telling them this story. Embarrassing, but it is true, we will never ever know everything, even many of the ‘little’ things, unless God reveals them to us.
I often times compare my life to Peter in the Bible, and I am seeking God’s wisdom to be more like Jesus, because by definition, a Christian should be people who FOLLOWS Jesus (the true Jesus in the Bible) and His teachings.
Fourth, let me compare myself to Christ (which I know I shouldn’t even try). I'm on a mission. This mission is to not reach the 99 (Christians - found), it is to tell YOU that God loves you! Why does God love you? Because He made you, and He wants you to be forgiven of all the wrongs (sins) in your life - which is easy - to be forgiven - because of Jesus's blood sacrifice on the cross - it is a FREE gift from God (Romans 6:23).
My ministry (and the titles of the inspirations) are to tell you what Jesus has done for me (and you). Did you know that Jesus was described as being radical? (talking with and healing those dreaded sinners on the Sabbath). I know many Christians who are willing to smoke cigarettes in front of others, to show you that they are human. This is the reason why they smoke, right?
Suffocating from smoking has been described to me this way: place a large baggy over your head and seal it around your neck so you can't breath. Yep, that's it. Not pleasant indeed. But those who are addicted to cigarettes already know the heath risks, they already have the fear of dying early, they know God doesn't want them to smoke - but they are addicted!
Even when I watched my own mother die from smoking, I continued to smoke because I WAS ADDICTED!!! to the point that my own lungs hurt too (and I still couldn't, wouldn't stop or get help). This website will help you end your addictions!!! Jesus is a healer and he still heals... sounds weird, but its true... there are special powers... just from the name of Jesus... as you will read about in this website... God healed me when nothing else did.
Sixth, I’m thankful today for having that life-long addiction, because it has made me realize that we all struggle with some type of an addiction (gossip, selfishness, work-a-holics, drinking, food... ). Are you near perfect? Are you still convinced you don't have any problems? Well I'm here to tell you that we all fall short (Romans 3:23). For example, Jesus tells us that if we have 2 of something, to give one away (do you have 2 cars? I do.) Jesus tells us to sell our possessions and give the money to the poor... that love is patient, kind, keeps no records of when other people wrong us... NO!!! Those Christians who pretend to be near perfect do NOT help the matter... but none-the-less they are forgiven by way of Jesus's blood and the cross. We are far from perfect, thus we NEED the cross. This paragraph does not give you an excuse to do whatever you want. When I fall short, in following Jesus, I ask Jesus for help, and He helps me. Jesus helped me fight temptation (addictions) last year like never before!
We all have problems that we DO NEED to
Seventh, I have come to love the number seven. God made the Heavens, Earth, people, animals, fishies, stars… in seven days. But, I have come to FEAR the number seven. The seven trumpets, seals, bowls (described in the Book of Revelations). God’s wrath is coming and I am ready. The Holy Spirit tugs on my heart to tell others to not (ONLY) be ready, but to help others ‘be ready’.
There is good and evil, and its becoming more ‘obvious’ each and every passing day. So, are the birth pains (again talked about in Revelations)!!!
Folks, I have tried to stop my writings many times. Usually at the end of my day, when I fear that I have messed up, and I tell myself to just stop writing. Then, I wake up EARLY the the morning with another new tug, a new revelation, a new desire to keep going, new Mercy from God Almighty. These tugs don’t come from Satan. I know because I listened to Satan’s tugs for years, and they don’t SOUND THE SAME. Satan does not want me to keep telling others about Jesus. Satan wants me to run to my garage and smoke another bowl of marijuana, to forget about the lost sheep, to be disobedient to God. I know this to be
Eighth, I have come so close to running back to my illegal-drug addiction, and I have rationalized it, over-analyzed it, justified it… BUT, the
For many years I thought being a ‘

Ninth, I have seen God’s power made perfect in my life when I share my weaknesses (and God's strengths (HERE), and this inspiration will be no different. I know, because I BELIEVE my writings (inspired by God) are NOT in vain (neither is the time I spend that it takes to write them)!!! Why? Because God is tugging on my heart to continue them, when I have the strong desire to quit writing altogether, when I get persecuted for writing them...
Today, I am editing another inspiration written ‘Please Flip Me A Bird’. The Holy Spirit has told me to go back and change the last line about Jesus not liking vinegar. Why? Because it was Jesus’s last moment on the cross that I was being ‘witty’ about. There's a reason why I wrote it, but it wasn’t until I heard if from God that I wanted to change it. God told me to tell you this: it is o.k. to fail (just make sure you fail trying to serve God). It is o.k. to admit your mistakes! Folks, you may have criticized this ‘line’ about the vinegar right along with me, but the TRUTH of the matter is this: WE
I am able to keep writing, because I know where my heart is when I write. I am able… because I know there are many people out there who can relate to what I say. Satan has a foot-hold with the best of 'Christians' today, because we don't spend time with God, reading what He had written, praying, and loving others.
I DO KNOW THIS FOR A
It took me reading Apostle Paul’s writings for my life to change completely around. I had already read most of the Bible, but when I heard that Paul (who I saw as another straight-laced Christian – another person who I couldn’t measure up to) say that he was far from perfect, and that his right hand did things that he wished it wouldn’t, that he too was a FOOL apart from God, it triggered a spark that flew immediately into a
Then I thought about all of the people mentioned in the Bible, they weren’t PERFECT either (just forgiven and willing to be used. Yes, many listened to God, but the strength didn't come from them, I'm sure!!! When you do something right in the eyes of God, and you think you're doing it on your own strength, you then become a HYPOCRITE & SELF-RIGHTOUS!!!).
The key Christians in the Bible didn’t worship God just because their moms and dads told them to. They went to church, told others about Jesus… and were persecuted to death because of their strong desire (and WILLINGNESS) to love God back. Why did they love God so much? (not because they were perfect)!!! They loved God so much, because each and everyone of them felt God’s presence, seen their own miracles, was excited about being forgiven, and seen God protect them time and time again from danger and evil, knew that God was their only
Summarizing:
I do make mistakes in my writings, but God keeps me writing.
I am far from perfect, this is why I need God so much.
I receive my strength from God.
To receive affirmation from fellow brothers and sisters is like PULLING TEETH!!!
I am still addicted – mostly to God, who loved me without conditions, and He has asked me to love Him without conditions, to understand that His amazing grace is enough, and His blood sacrifice on the cross is enough to save anyone... if they just BELIEVE.
I choose to not to let Satan win, and I’m using every word I can find to beat him at his own game. I choose to read God’s Words for my inspiration!!!!!!!!!
Oh yah, I would like to compare myself to Peter: Tried really hard, failed, didn't believe, saw with his own two eyes, BELIEVED! Many see Peter as a disbeliever, the one who denied Jesus 3 times, who sank in the ocean... I have been labeled the same way! We all sink, disbelieve, deny... The only difference between us (Peter and I) is this: We wear our sins on our sleeves so everyone can see them (Jesus freak! is my favorite label these days). There are many out there in this world that who choose to let others label them, let me tell you this... Jesus created you and he loves you and he wants to be your friend. With God's supernatural strength, and by sharing my own weaknesses, I believe I am leading lost sheep to Jesus. I'm so thankful to God for loving me, for continuing to transform me, that I am shouting my beliefs from the mountain tops!!!
The following verses, about Peter's preaching, you may not know. I'm sure he questioned like me, 'WHO AM I' to ever tell others 'The Way', to repent..., but it didn't stop him from obeying God, and this question 'WHO AM I' is not going to stop me either!
Acts 8:18-24 (NIV) "When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on the apostles' hands, he offered them money and said, "Give me also the ability so that everyone on who I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit." Peter answered: "May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money! You have no part or share in this ministry, because your heart is not right before God. Repent of this wickedness and pray to the Lord. Perhaps He will forgive you for having such a thought in your heart. For I see that you are full of bitterness and captive to sin." Then Simon answered, "Pray to the Lord for me so that nothing you have said may happen to me."

I have discovered that God went 'way out of His way' to make us ALL completely different, and He uses us ALL in different ways (if we are only willing). Quit being a follower of others (except Jesus) (accept Jesus) - BE DIFFERENT! Follow your heart!!! Love God with all of your heart, start reading His Holy Words (click HERE), It's O.K. (your eyeballs will NOT fall out of their head), if you can't read, the Bible is now in audio and brail.
