Dude-You're in a Sexual Sewer and Don't Know It!

Author Philip Yancey once wrote, "A society that denies the supernatural usually ends up elevating the natural to the supernatural status." No truer words!!
 
Young people today practically worship their icons in music, TV, movies and sports. What they don't know, is that they're trying to fill a vacuum in their souls that only God can fill. Hey, I hear you laughing out there...hold it down. It's true, whether you like it or not.
 
An area of concern and rapid change is sex...it is idolized to the point that many young boys think sex is what you do to show power and control or to be coolest kid (or whatever your word for "cool" is). And sadly, many of our girls just think they are a piece of meat for the boys to do with as they want, in order to be liked and accepted. Unfortunately, their books, movies, music often reflect the sewer level of sex instead of the sacred level it should be.
 
The songs have gone from "I Wanna Hold Your Hand", to "Havin' My Baby" to "Do Yo' Ho". The sexual sewer our young people are swimming in will not bode well for their stability and success. And the sad part is that they don't even smell the crap they're swimming in!
 
Sex to them has almost become divine, as previously mentioned. This is especially so in our modern Western culture. They don't realize that previous generations actually honored virginity and celibacy. There were chaperones at all levels of couples' interactions; families were well involved and before there were any sexual liaisons, there was marriage, predicated on a plan to start a home, with all the supplies and steady income needed to maintain that stability.
 
Far cry from that, for many today. Now sex is used to sell everything from Coke to toothpaste and is at dog level in our youth culture. I'm not talking about a bunch of prudish rules here...back off. There is just no wisdom in a 14 year old fathering a child! No car, no job, no home, no skills, no education. What a mess to bring a kid into. And yet no one connects the dots. A few at the top are making millions, selling this trash life style to those at the bottom who, if they don't change, will stay at the bottom of society. Sex, alcohol and drugs are in our middle schools. God help us!!
 
Wake up people. God isn't the Puritanical old fart that the godless portray Him to be. He is loving and wants you to have the best life possible, where you are. He CAN make that happen, but not if you keep doing "your thing" and don't follow His directions. Ask Him into your soul to be the King of your heart. He'll help you to be able to pull away from pornography and screwing around with everything that walks your way. He'll bring you up to a higher level of life, where your true gifts, not just the low level groveling, will rule. Trust me...God can and will do this. He only needs your permission. DO IT!
 
Well, don't just stand there like a jerk...get back to your workout. Check you later.

Special Forces Training

 Ever feel like you're being pummeled left and right in life. Just think of the Navy Seals and the Army Special Forces trainees. They go through punishing training days and nights. Physical extremes like we can't imagine. Does the military do that to punish them...of course not. These men and women volunteered to do some of the most dangerous, sacrificial, life-threatening missions to protect the Homeland and those who are in need in far away places. It's like that for those of us who have given over our lives to the Lord. If you are serious with Him, be prepared, for you may go through some rigorous training. You may not have the luxury sometimes of the softer things in life; you may be pushed beyond your limits, physically, mentally and spiritually. But, if you are led by the Spirit of God, it will be for a perfect result.  As I shared with a friend the other day, "You are destined to be a strong warrior in the Lord. Satan knows that, and is badgering you to death. I

Shoot Those Squirrels!

  SQUIRREL!! Do you spend dedicated time alone with God, or are you “chasing squirrels”? It happens to all of us. You just get settled in a quiet place, you’re talking with the Lord, or just listening and the phone rings, or you think of the call you said you’d return, or the laundry that needs to go in the dryer…on and on.   If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that if you want wisdom, understanding and a good day…you better start it with some lone, non-squirrel time with the Lord! In that lone time, be ready to hear from God too. It’s not just a one-way conversation from you to Him. He will speak back to you, to show you, lead you, reveal something to you. You may not like that revelation either, so be prepared. It may be your stubbornness, impatience levels, anger, hidden dishonesty etc. God is not tormenting or rejecting us in these revelations, rather He’s trying to let us know what parts are still broken and need repair.   And…hold on…it gets tougher…sometimes He has to ge

I believe in tolerance...except with YOU!

Are people drinking crazy juice or something? Twitter, Facebook...you name it. All sorts of comments and stuff that make ZERO sense! Knock it off...get back to your work out!   People go busting windows, knocking people down, cutting them, beating them up and kicking them, all the while calling the poor slob on the ground who's head is being beaten in a "fascist". Is this a bad nightmare? What the heck!!   Really? Screaming for free speech for themselves but totally blocking others. That ain't gonna work. Nothing but bad times ahead if that doesn't stop.   So, whutchu lookin' at...just standing there. Where's your prayer life for wisdom as to what to say or do? Where's your random acts of kindness, your volunteering in a local school or at a local hospital. Just think...if people were so busy helping others (or working), they wouldn't have time to be out splitting open the heads of those with which they disagree.   And you snowflak
