Start Where You Are

Start Where You Are!

When do we get our first clue that Jesus knows He is the Son of God? In the temple when He was twelve years old. His parents are three days into the return trip to Nazareth before they notice he's missing. The temple is the last place they search, but it's the first place Jesus goes. By the time Joseph and Mary locate their son He has confounded the most learned scholars in the temple. As a boy Jesus already senses the call of God. But what does He do next? Recruit disciples and preach sermons? No, He goes back home and learns the family business. That's what you should do! Before you attempt to do great things for God, go home, love your family and take care of business. "But I'm called to be a missionary," you say. Good, your first mission field is where you live! What makes you think you'll be believed by those who barely know you, if you're not credible to those who know you best? Charity begins at home! The Psalmist says, "I will lead a life of integrity in my own home" (Ps 101:2 NLT). For His first thirty years Jesus' neighbors remembered Him as a worker. "He's just a carpenter" (Mk 6:3 TM). Jesus spent years developing a work ethic, sharpening His vocational skills and supporting His family. "He had to enter into every detail of human life" (Heb 2:17 TM). Why did Jesus do it that way? So He would know how we feel. So we'd be confident in going to Him with our needs, knowing He's qualified and able to meet them. So, start where you are!

Motorcycle Wisdom

What my Motorcycle has taught me!      1.  The only good view of a thunderstorm is in your rear view mirror.      2.  Four wheels move the body; two wheels move the soul.      3.  I'd rather be riding my motorcycle and thinking about God than Sitting in church thinking about my bike.      4.  Life may begin at 30, but it doesn't get real interesting until About 75 mph.      5.  Midnight bugs taste just as bad as Noon time bugs.      6.  Sometimes it takes a whole tank full of gas before you can think Straight.      7.  A bike on the road is worth two in the shed.      8.  Young riders pick a destination and go; old riders pick a Direction and go.      9.  When you're riding lead, don't spit.      10. Catching a "yellow jacket" in your shirt at 75 mph (or even in Slow traffic) can double your vocabulary.      11. If you can't get it going with bungee cords and duct tape, it's Serious.      12. Only a biker knows why a dog sticks his head out of a car window.

Money Sucks.

People don't care about anything but money. Not everyone, but nearly
everyone. I hate that.

God Can Use YOU!

• Noah got DRUNK.
• Abraham was too OLD.
• Jacob was a LIAR.
• Gideon was AFRAID.
• Rahab was A PROSTITUTE.
• Jeremiah and Timothy were considered TOO YOUNG.
• David had an AFFAIR.
• Moses was a MURDERER.
• Elijah was SUICIDAL at one point.
• Jonah RAN FROM GOD.
• Peter DENIED CHRIST.
• The Disciples FELL ASLEEP while PRAYING.
• The Samaritan Woman WAS DIVORCED five times.
• Timothy had AN ULCER.
• John the Baptist ATE BUGS.
• And Lazarus WAS DEAD!

So what's your excuse?

This is not to condone what any of these people did, but it is to say that God used all of them!

Romans 1:16

The Fellowship of the Unashamed

 

I am part of the "Fellowship of the Unashamed."

The die has been cast. I have stepped over the line.

The decision has been made. I am a disciple of

Jesus Christ. I won't look back, let up, slow down,

back away, or be still. My past is redeemed, my present

makes sense, and my future is secure.

I am finished and done with low living, sight walking,

small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams,

chintzy giving, and dwarfed goals.

 

I no longer need pre-eminence, prosperity, position,

promotions, plaudits, or popularity. I now live by

presence, lean by faith, love by patience,

lift by prayer, and labor by power. My pace

is set, my gait is fast, my goal is Heaven, my

road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions few,

my Guide reliable, my mission clear. I cannot be bought,

compromised, deterred, lured away, turned back,

diluted, or delayed.

 

I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the

presence of adversity, negotiate at the table of the enemy,

ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander

in the maze of mediocrity.

 

I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I must go until

Heaven returns, give until I drop, preach until all know,

and work until He comes. And when He comes to get

His own, He will have no problem recognizing me.

My colors will be clear.

 

I am not ashamed of the gospel . . . Romans 1:16
