Y ME?

When I started the journey with Jesus over 7 years ago it was all about me! I really had no vision for what God would do through me to reach other people. I simply wanted to latch on to his word and hungrily pursue his will. The idea of Jesus using me to inspire, or encourage any creature on this planet, entered me not.

The more I struggle with the faith, the more it seems that Jesus enables me. It's the craziest thing.. I am simply a man who is subject to sin destroying his life, as much as anyone else. Yet in the hardest times of temptation and sin, Jesus rescues me and empowers me to impact someone else.

I constantly marvel at Y Jesus chooses to reach people through my insignificance. I am just a struggling man from a Podunk town in Kentucky.. Yet, Jesus CHANGES lives through words I use and things I do.... IT JUST BLOWS ME A WAY DUDE!!!!

30 HOURS - NO FOOD

How many of you have ever gone 1 day without food? Let me tell you, it is not an easy endeavor. How many of you did something that radical when you were a teenager? Probably not many of you. Starting about 1 1/2 hours ago several of the teens at Harmony committed to Jesus 30 hours without food. Let's not forget that there are some adults involved in this as well.. ( including the Teen Minister) This sacrifice seems quite contrary to the weekend most of us are having in the Horse capital of the world. Tomorrow is the Kentucky Derby, and the party has already begun for most of this state. Companies across the state dismissed employees early from work for the sole purpose of celebrating the " fastest 2 minutes in sports." So while so many Kentuckians, and all those who have traveled across the world are getting sloshed and wasted, there is a little known group of teens 1 hour down I-64 starving for Jesus! Now, this 30 hour famine has nothing to do with the Kentucky Derby, I just see the irony in the timing. The purpose of the famine is to raise at least 7,000 dollars in order to purchase some Bicycles for some Pastors in Uganda.... Praise God for our Teens at Harmony and the Leader they have pushing them to a greater intimacy with our Lord!!!!
