If I have any more I may just explode.

Today my soul was ministered to by the Lord himself, it was so special for me.

Just lately I have allowed the battle to hurt me a little more than it should. My peace had been stolen....today it was restored, renewed...and something revived inside me.

Jesus is my Saviour. I am not His.
I am His servant.

I love what Jesus did in me today.

..... When I got home I was reading this Facebook dialogue, where one Christ follower was bagging out another Christ follower, because of a past sin.

Seriously.... Stop doing that people. Let Jesus be Saviour to all people, redeemer...forgiver, restorer, healer....

If we can't be forgiven of our past sins, then we are all doomed.

If Jesus has forgiven what has been confessed and repented from...who are we, any of us, to bring up anything against anyone at anytime?

To my friend Geoff... I am sad that a brother would do that, you did not deserve it.

We need to allow the Saviour to be that for us all.

I think that true Grace is allowing the Saviour be the Saviour....in everyone, regardless of their past.

If that can't be... I am doomed as well, as millions of other Christians are also.

The big difference in our faith is that Jesus is the Saviour of our souls....and he lives, and he loves, and he forgives...endlessly.

Let the Saviour save ya....

My souls is overflowing tonight with the peace that only He can bring....any more and I truly will explode.

    It is time the church stepped it up and stopped being so pig headed. I would like to suggest that it is only when we know the true meaning of forgiveness, grace and mercy in our own lives i believe we are more willing to show it to others. But when we are still privetly holding onto our own condemnation and judgement that is what we show others.

    I just spent the night with people in our community who have been hurt by "the Church" threw painful and hurtful words of condemnation! this is so not on with God and we need to stamp it out big time.

    So I join you Gary in saying STOP IT lets work together to be people of encouragment, peace and love. Reflectors of God's grace

What got us here, will not get us there.

I have been thinking about the this for sometime now. We as TSA have come along way, but yet...there is a long way yet to go, and everything we have done up until now, has given us the results we now have. It's insanity to think, that if we keep doing the things we have already done, that we will get a different result. All that we have done so far, in previous weeks, months and years and even decades have given us the results we are seeing right now. If we think for one moment that things are going to change, by doing the things the same way as we have already done them, then there may be a need for seeing a therapist. do things the same way, get the same result. change the way you do things, get a different result. the problem with this, is ..... that many think everything is honky dory....all "A OK".... and that's where the real bottle neck actually is. Because the truth is, (and many don't want to acknowledge the truth), that we are not winnin...

Salvo style.... God is here.

For me these days, life is super busy. I used to think I was busy before, but now...my goodness. Now, so that it's clear, I am happy being busy with the Kingdom stuff, and would never cope if I was blatantly bored in ministry, I am simply not wired in such a way. Life is good. My ministry is good. My God is good. For those of my readers who think, that maybe, I think I have arrived..... wash your mouths out...there is no way I think that, last week my head was in such a spin, I literally had to walk out the office and go home. I went for a walk to clear my head and got drenched when it started raining, and it was really good for me... I gained perspective and focus and the next day in the office was a little more sober. It's a busy place and much is going on.... it does pose questions for me, which over time I will seek clarity from the senior leaders here....and I guess where needed, I will tweak where and when I can. in the meantime, I am just doing what I feel...

Psychics

Went onto a Facebook thread this week that involved people seeking a psychic for whatever reason. I understand that the world is seeking answers,  and I have the answer but the answer I have people don't want to seek. VERY  FRUSTRATING . now as bad as it all is, what makes it worse, WAY WORSE...is that some of the people in our church were on there making appointments.   Now, before you throw your hands up in the air and ask what kind of church this actually is... we run a new church here at Craigieburn and it has loads of new baby Christians, and many also, who are just here checking things out...not committed to Christ yet, that's part of the journey of planting a Church..... so it is expected that there will always be people who are on various stages of growth. If you are reading this..and you have been doing this psychic thing... you don't need to do it, you need to seek Jesus and His Holy Spirit, it will be better than anything and everything else yo...
