Random Passing Thoughts, Iss. 2

Churchy type rambling type stuff

Too many churches have too many "saints" and not enough "sinners". The more nonChristians the better. Otherwise, the preacher is preaching to....the choir. Literally.

Jesus loves the little children...even the loud, obnoxious, unruly ones.

Religion is a filthy word that should be banned from the church.

When God calls you to a ministry - do it. He will let you know what the perfect ministry for you is. How do you know what He's calling you to? You just thought of it two seconds ago.

Hate the sin, love the sinner. In the same way you should love your neighbor, but you can hate their lawn gnome.

Don't rush to point out other's faults. You might trip over your own stumbling blocks on the way there.

"Churches are filled with hypocrites". That's true...churches are also filled with people.

Jesus didn't say to follow Joe, Jack, Bill, or Susie. He said to follow Him.

People are weak and will fail you. Jesus is strong and will never let you down.

People say one thing, but do another. What Jesus says...Jesus does....Jesus is.

Sermons are like an orange. You will only get as much as you are willing to squeeze out of it.

Christians are like apples. Bright, shiny, and good to the core... or they're bruised and beaten.

You can lead a person to water, but you can't make them drink. Lead a person to Christ and they'll never thirst again.

The best gift we can give will eventually fade, be destroyed, or lose its appeal. The best gift we can receive will never fade, will never be destroyed, and will always appeal to your soul.

Prayer - it's a way of life, not a pre-meal ritual.

A grudge is like a tumor of the soul. Let it fester long enough and it will consume you. Cut it out and you'll find peace.

You should cut it out.

    Biggest lesson, don't follow people. Follow Christ. People fail. Christ prevails. :)
