Got Religion?

Got Religion?

Religion is destroying us. It separates us and makes hate one another. It completely turns us away from the one thing that can save us… the love of Christ. Religion will make you talk to God only on Sundays, act holy only in public, and give only after you’ve been given to. Religion will make a preacher live a double life Monday through Saturday and pulpit retaliate on Sunday. Religion will make you have more faith in your parents and friends than God himself. Religion will make you start a “ministry” but you never go outside your four walls. Religion will make you...

Personal Note

Good evening. The moment when you realize that what you’re doing is solely for God regardless of the acknowledgement or attention is the moment in which you move to another level. We can play “follow the leader” for as long as we live, but until we decide that our worship, our praise,  our song is SOLELY to bring glory to our Father, then we are are doing nothing other than playing games and insulting the purpose of our existence.  When you wave your hand, when you tap your feet, when a tear falls from your face…let it be from the heart.  Let it be a result of...

Peas In A Divine Pod

Good evening. Last weekend, a powerful message was ministered at a church I fellowship with when I’m in Georgia, The Church At Chapel Hill (CCH). Their current series is titled, “If Not Us, Who? If Not Now, When?” This particular message was on “Assignment.” Although the entire message kept you locked in, one particular part literally made me stop and rewind the podcast. Pastor Jeremiah touched on the American Dream being the American Scheme. In other words, he talked about how desiring to meet the world’s standards of success distracts us from what’s...

I Believe.

Good evening. Only God would be there when my father died at a time when he was all I had. Only God would be there to wait 18 years for me to get to know Him all the while looking out for me. Only God would be there when I did stupid things that should have cost me my life. Only God would be there when a 6 month old made it clear that he was in my life for good. Only God would be there when I had to choose between money for food and money for gas. Only God would be there when I realized that I had purpose even though I didn’t know what it was. Only God would be there during my 150...

Old Car, Hard Road

Old Car, Hard Road

Good morning.  An old car on a hard road. This morning I had a competitive experience with a gentleman driving an older model car.  Throughout the stretch of the 6 mile highway from our neighborhood to the interstate, he literally smoked me.  To give you a visual, I was still in the last curve when he was exiting onto I55.  Then something weird happened.  He fell back completely out of sight. I could only come away with the assumption that though he knew his older car was able to burn pavement on a short highway, he failed to understand that it could do the same in the distance....
