I met a man a few minutes ago who heard me. I came to him with a precious gift and he received it with meekness and gentleness. In return he gave me a more precious gift that satisfied my hunger. And now my question is answered.
Yes.
God...is enough.

What is this feeling?

I've had this unsettling unrest in me since last night that has just gotten worse as the day has progressed. I'm not sure about this feeling inside. It's all uncertainty.

God...

It's all I can say. Do you think He hears me? I mean, the real me? Do you think He hears my heart? What it is I'm really tryin to say?

God...

Is that enough? One Word? Can He understand what it is I need to say and what I need Him to say to me?

God...

What are we doing?!

"Here we go."

It's all I could think when I found out who won the election. This is the end.
Obama may not be the anti-Christ, and Armageddon may not come tomorrow, but this is so close I can taste it.

If christians aren't being persecuted in this day and we aren't being martyred than we are doing nothing. This is the moment for all who are called by the name of Christ to make a stand wherever possible. We need to be interceding!
We need to get radical!

God is calling out His John the Baptists!

Let us hold fast to the doctrine that so faithfully has changed us as real christians and fight against the deep deception that is tearing apart our country.

LET THIS BE HEARD AND KNOWN:

ANYONE WHO SAYS, "I BELIEVE IN GOD AND I BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST BUT MY PERSONAL BELIEF IS THAT ALL FAITHS LEAD TO THE SAME END." IS AN ENEMY OF GOD!

JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONE AND ONLY WAY.

Let's start doing something, Church.

Let's take a stand!

No longer silent

I am so sick of watching people ruin each other's lives b/c they have no idea how to have a relationship! I am tired of standing by and watching them mess each other up b/c they refuse to listen to wise counsel!

Some would say, "Josh, settle down, that's not your place." or "Chill man, you have to talk to people in love!" or "Hey, don't judge me!!"

Man, grow up!

It is our place! If we just stand by and watch and don't say anything b/c we're scared to offend people then WE are wrong! People are worth more than other people think. Noone deserves someone screwing their life up b/c they're stupid.

NO!

From now on, I'm speaking out! I refuse to just sit and watch. I can't make people do anything, but if I don't give the option, than I haven't fulfilled the great Example.
And if people hate me b/c I tell them what they are doing wrong, then GREAT! I'm finally doing something.
If people want to hate you for snatching them from the fires of Hell, then who cares, at least they have another choice now. I'm so tired of CHRISTIANS telling me to be quiet! Love isn't always quiet!

Love isn't always polite and comfortable!

Jesus loved the WORLD, but He formed a whip and started chasing people out of the temple! Love doesn't always look the way we want it to, but it's still love. We need to get this idea that love is sappy and comfortable and makes us feel good out of our minds b/c that's not the truth. Jesus came to bring a sword! Why!?

B/c He loves us!

I'm not being quiet any longer!

Get this, people! Your relationship is NOT for YOU! It is meant to glorify God and if you're not under wise Godly counsel, than you are in the wrong and are not glorifying God. If you think you can do this on your own and hold onto your relationship and not listen to anyone else, if you think your girlfriend/boyfriend belongs to you and you can control what happens to them, you are wrong!

Men: If you are not married to her, you are NOT her spiritual covering. You cannot tell other guys to stop talking to her. You can only encourage her to stop talking to them. Get a spiritual covering for your relationship.

Women: If you are having a hard time giving an answer for why you are with your guy or why you live the way you do, it might be wise to take a step back and get that figured out.

Stop getting offended when people call you out about your lifestyle if you call yourself a christian.
Proverbs says a man who despises correction is stupid.
