"LESS THAN 3% of 'EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS' SAID THEY WOULD FINANCIALLY HELP A CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATION MINISTER TO AN AIDS ORPHAN."~Barna Research
SO IF YOU'RE AN UNBELIEVER AND WERE COUNTING ON THE CHURCH TO SAVE THE WORLD FROM IT'S DEVASTATION, OR YOU ARE THE CHURCH AND WERE HOPING THAT YOUR OTHER BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST ARE FIGHTING THE BATTLE FOR YOU...SADLY, YOU ARE MISTAKEN.
HOW DOES GOD SEE THIS ISSUE???
Isaiah 58:6-9
Matthew 25:41-45
James 1:27
(Can be located in a crazy little thing called the B.I.B.L.E)
"GOD is in the slums,
in the cardboard boxes where the poor play house.
GOD is in the silence of a mother who has infected
her child with a virus that will end both of their lives.
GOD is in the cries heard under the rubble of war.
God is in the debris of wasted opportunity and lives,
and God is WITH US if we are WITH THEM."
~ Bono

Sorry if you feel like you've been bombarded by social justice and poverty issues on my site. It was never my intention to burden my friends with guilt over the blessings that they have when they visit me. I do have happier things and just plain stuff about me down below. But sometimes I think it's good for us to feel a little uncomfortable now and then. Being comfortable never moved anyone into action. And I know that I myself was pretty happily ignorant about many of these issues not so long ago, until someone took the time to tell me about who and what was being ignored. I think that many of us have been taught a lie about our lives and even about our faith; that we were born for consumerism and that everything in the earth is for us and about us, only. I feel like the closer I've tried to truly find Jesus, and follow his footsteps and words, he nearly always leads me to this type of passion, for people like you see above. I believe the scripture in James 1:27 is truth and it is still relevant for today. I believe that "true and undefiled religion is caring for the widows and orphans". I believe that God specifically pointed out these types of persons because they are people that you must sacrifice and give to, never being able to expect anything in return. Not because they are not grateful or willing, but because they have nothing tangible to give. I question if we really were to take time to think about it, would it finally sink in that that is exactly what Christ, himself, did for us? The little that my heart is able to overpower my mind into giving to these people who can offer me nothing, often feels like a sacrifice for a split second. But I have found that unbelievable joy follows. Joy in knowing that it's somehow made a huge difference to them, and joy in knowing that my Savior is teaching me to see people the way that He sees them. There is nothing else the world can offer me that is greater and more desireable to me than that. So I hope these images and videos do not burden you, but more like free you. God bless.

“I meant it all and every part, and every word right from the start. I’ll never let this love fall in the middle. ‘Cause you know you broke the hardest part. You know you broke the hardest heart. I’ll never let this love fall in the middle...through it all.” ~ Mat Kearney

Music:

Too many to list. But Lifehouse, Mat Kearney, Jars of Clay, Switchfoot, the Goo Goo Dolls, and Josh Groban top my charts, and Collective Soul, Thousand Foot Krutch, FM Static, Jeremy Camp, and Love & Theft would be quick to follow.

But my "Featured Artist Of the Week" is the Goo Goo Dolls

Without You Here
(John Rzeznik/The Goo Goo Dolls)

Your love's a gathered storm I chased across the sky
A moment in your arms became the reason why
And you're still the only light that fills the emptiness
The only one I need until my dying breath
And I would give you everything just to
Feel your open arms
And I'm not sure I believe anything I feel

And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here

And I'm trying to believe
In things that I don't know
The turning of the world
The color of your soul
That love could kill the pain
Truth is never vain
It turns strangers into lovers
And enemies to brothers
Just say you understand
I never had this planned

And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
Without you here
There's nothing more without you
Without you here

My head lies to my heart
And my heart it still believes
It seems the ones who love us are the ones
That we deceive
But you're changing everything
You're changing everything in me

And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
