ALL OF THE DEVILS APPLES HAVE WORMS

I taught on this subject this morning, and the only thing that gets me is, some one else will get the blame, you know I as a father did not make the choice to disappoint others. And yet I give the option and they make the decision, I get the blame. Yet I gave the option. Peoples assumptions are wrong about me and yet I am blamed. I taught right and I showed but yet did they listen no.
I know one thing, as a father I did not fail.
I thank God for my wife and her always following me. She could have told me no and stay in Texas, but yet she was obedient and followed me. If you read this post Melinda, I love You.

Crying Unto God

I wonder when was the last time you Cried unto God. So burdened for a soul, concerned for a loved one, concerned about your service to God, concerned about where you stand. Lamentations says this, about crying unto God. Lamentations 2:18 Their heart cried unto the Lord, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give thyself no rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
Jeremiah was broken about the situation of Jerusalem, He was concerned about the condition of the nation. He not only felt the despair but saw it first hand, He was weeping about the stand the the people of God have forsaken. The difference was that his heart was rent in despair. He was concerned to the point of weeping.
Where are we in our concern for our nation, our state, our county's, our city's, our streets and our neighbors.
David in Psalm 28:1 is crying unto God, His confidence was in his God in that he refers to God as His Rock. David here refers to God as a rock because it signifies that as a rock God is a place Of refuge, The rock also represents strength, a strong place, to be in the place of God is to be secured in His strength. As David cries unto his God He is proclaiming that he needs no mans help. He addresses the comforter, He addresses his savior, his Help and his Friend.
David knows that he to could be put in a position that there is no help. he knows what it feels like to lose because of sin, ( he lost a son because of adultery, He lost a daughter, and older son as well,) David knew that he is human and weak, but yet he knew that his strength was with God, So with that he cried. How aweful for a child of God to get so far away from God that To feel lonesome. David didn't want that, I don't want that. And I know you don't want that.
So with that I will Pray like this. Psalms 61:2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

The Lord Is So Good.

I just want to explain to you that read this blog, I love the Lord, He has been so good to me. I have waited on Him and yet God is still blessing. I have seen my brother get saved and then to baptize him was awesome. I have seen him grow through out the year. I see how he loves the preacher and church. I see him have fellowship with those that I have had fellowship with. Though there is turmoil and strife I can see some good.

A Full Van

Today we had 15 kids on the van, and with the 3 workers we totaled 18, We met the limit for the van.We had 7 new kids and they were so excited. 6 kids that road last week did not come and if they did we would have been totally full. 5 of the kids made a profession and I hope they got saved. Some of my formal church members came by and visited our church and that was refreshing. It was good to see the kids enjoy church, Next week we are going to Texas, and Todd said he would ride the van to make sure the kids get picked up. Our van drivers are exited to see the van full. Keep praying for the Bus ministry, It works.
