Earlier Video editing

Here is a video that we did a couple of months ago at CPC. The editing is NOT good, but I just wanted to get it up. More to come (that has much better editing!)

Perception

We are all guilty of judging, right? We see someone in a big house and think, man they MUST be loaded. We see someone driving a new Lexis and think, " must be nice". Or maybe we think, "I bet those people are in to major debt.

Perception. It is a dangerous thing. It is what we perceive, believe and then count as fact about an issue or issues. I have done it many times.

My perception of the Cross.....

My perception of "religion".....

My perception of "the good ole days".....

My perception of the future Church.....

Basically what I am trying to say is, I might just be wrong. The cross was probably a lot more brutal than I could ever perceive.

Other religions, (not cults) but ones that do not practice the same methods that I do as a pentecostal (Assemblies of God), are probably doing great things for Jesus way beyond what I perceive.

The good ole days are probably not just old fashioned ways of older people, they are probably a very strong and vibrant Church that wants to join hands with the Church of today.

The future Church? They are probably not some whacked out unprincipled, new age movement. They are probably a new up and coming generation that wants to join hands with us and the Church of the past.

Perception......

What is yours? Are you sure that is the right one?

That's too many numbers!!!!!

I love Kids! They say exactly what they are thinking. Today while driving the bus I was listing to a 1st grader debate with a pre-Ker.
They where talking about what size of a Kawola bear they would have as a pet.

The pre-Ker said billions, and billions, and billions, and billions, and billions, and billions.......etc... for about 30 seconds. Then the 1st grader interrupted and said, "that's too many numbers... they go past the line!" I am assuming he meant the margin line on notebook paper.

Silence.....

Then the 1st grader used his higher education to trumped his lil sister. He said, "Infinity!"

Debate over.

Satan hates your guts and my guts billions, and billions, and billions, and billions.....etc...

But God Loves you......

Infinity!!

Debate over!

Just a Thought.....

I asked Jesus

Well, my negitive attitude has redndered me some what i call "begging a prayer".

The other morning i was leaving work and I asked Jesus this question,

"Lord please show me waht you are doing at this point in life through me!!"

Well, He did. I am working at a large grocery store chain, at night, in the bakery. I took the job because we need the money.

God gave me this job for other additional reasons..... Devine appointments.

I walked into the bakery and met a nice kid about the age of my oldest son. It ends up, that I have known him for several years. he is a kid (young man) that has had what i would consider, a tough life. I asked Jesus to help me connect with Him. QWe did. Then last night, he was telling me how close he was to his Grandma.

I asked him a few questions about her, and it turns out that I had the opportunity of preaching at her funeral.

I remember proclaiming the Gospel, and his Grandma's sister came to Christ. He thought about it and we were both amazed at this "small world".

So, I asked Jesus another question. "jesus, please dont let me screw this up!"

God is good and faithfull even when we are bad and faithless.
