On My way to the Celestral City

When I was younger I was very self centered,self willed and prideful. (I didn't think so at the time) I Was very good at any sport's I tried, Then in Sales (always the Best) Thought I could do anything on my own with enough will power and determination, like Nike "Just do it" was my motto. How has this Changed one might ask? Simply through life's mistakes, pain, struggles and failings. I neglected my family and responsibility's for years, partying, drinking after work with my peers then all day long on the weekends doing all kind of drugs any time I could. this eventually brought me into Isolation and depression it separates one from the "Sunlight of the Spirit".


Now after many years of struggle,relapse starting over, surrendering not once but thousands of times growing slowly with progression not perfection, I know the person I am now is developing a kinder, gentler, understanding and empathy for others and God is showing me that that through my experience strength and Hope he can now use me to be of Help to my Fellows.


God will always use are greatest weakness to teach us how to Love and be able to Join Him in His wonderful plan's for our daily Life's. "God uses all things for Good to those who Love Him" So hold on for one more day! Your victory is on the way! "Pain endures for the night, but Joy comes in the morning"


God Bless you and bring you Peace, Love and Great Joy!!!

Light overcomes the dakness

It seems to me that darkness is always trying to cover up the light, but the light wont have it, the Light is stronger and will always eventually dispel the darkness. Unlike my early days were I always wanted everything to be fixed right now! God has matured me, (over a very long time and very  slow progression) to be able to better wait things out. To move with the tide instead of against it you might say. Gods promises are coming exactly when they are supposed to. In the interim hopefully I might just learn a thing a or two along the way. Today I try to listen more then talk, encourage more then criticize and most of all try not to react to quickly to things, people or circumstance, for I have noticed things have a way of working themselves out. When I let God work and not try to run the show as they say "Their is a God and its not me".  So I  personally will try to enjoy this day God created for me, join God in what (and were) he wants to do with me today, being less ce

Consider the road

Matthew 10:24-25, NIV:  "A student is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. It is enough for the student to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master..." "Consider Christ. The road Christ walked was not a glamorous one. It promised nothing of worldly goods or gain. It was not a road that led to satisfaction and financial comfort while on this earth. It was a road of self-denial, self-sacrifice--self-death. It was a road that led to a cross on a hill of death, appropriately named Golgotha, "the place of the skull." If to follow Christ means to walk the road He walked, does it not also mean to die, truly die, to self? If to follow Christ means to call Him Master, does it not also mean that it is enough for us to be like our Master? Can we call Him Master and follow Him without walking the road that He walked? Consider Christ. Consider the road that He walked. Consider what He gave up for the Father and for us. Consider what it me
