Second Blog-iversay

 “Then I said, “I will not make mention of Him, nor speak anymore in His name.” But His word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones; I was weary of holding it back, And I could not.” – Jeremiah 20:9

 

Two years ago last week, I decided to start this blog out of a burning sense within me to declare God’s unadulterated Truth before a fallen world. That “fire” still burns within me.  It still is a way for me to speak my piece and to minister the Word of God.

I want to share this quote with you from A.W. Tozer:

“The sight of the languishing church around me and the operation of a new spiritual power within me have set up a pressure impossible to resist. Whether or not this book reaches a wider public, still it has to be written if for no other reason than to relieve an unbearable burden on my heart.”    —A.W.  Tozer

 

And that’s the way, ladies and gentlemen, I feel about this blog. Whether or not I gain a larger readership, I still have to write, like Tozer, “if for no other reason than to relieve an unbearable burden on my heart.” 

Thanks for reading R3.Be blessed!

Taking a New Direction

"to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me."  –  Book of Acts 26:18

After much prayer, I am taking this blog in a new direction.

One of the things I believe God's calling me to do in these last days is to stand on the "street corner", so to speak,  and clearly, boldly, expose the lies of satan and share the truth of God's Word with the lost.  The Word of God identifies satan, our adversary, as a liar in John 8:44, and one of satan's goals is to tell a lie loud enough and long enough, that people believe the lie to be the truth. 

Jesus Christ is TRUTH! And when the lies of the devil are contrasted with the truth of God, they cannot stand! The TRUTH wins every time. The only way the TRUTH loses is when God's people, the Church, are too afraid to stand up and proclaim it!

So, the primary focus of this blog, now, is to proclaim God's Son, Jesus Christ, to be the hope of all men in all of their complex personal and social problems. 

My mission, then, is to:

  • TO PROCLAIM JESUS CHRIST AS THE ANSWER TO ALL WHO ARE HURTING AND IN NEED OF HOPE
  • TO SHARE THE HOPE AND LOVE OF JESUS CHRIST WITH HURTING PEOPLE
  • TO BRING GOD'S TRUTH TO BEAR ON A WORLD FULL OF LIES

I'll cover health problems, relationship problems, financial concerns, spiritual issues and the days current events as they relate to the Word of God.

There are literally millions of hurting and lost souls Christ died for who are looking for the hope that is only found in Jesus.  I believe I am just one of many of God's agents He is using to bring those hurting and lost souls the hope they are desperately seeking. I want this blog to serve as a place where people who are hurting, struggling with life in general, can come and find hope to overcome their problems.

But I need your help in spreading the message of hope. Maybe you have a friend or family member that would like to start reading this daily word. You can direct them to this blog.

Blog-iversay

Folks, one year ago yesterday, I started this blog.

I wanted my blog to be a place, primarily, for me to polish my writing skills.  However, it grew to being a way for me to speak my piece and to minster the the Word of God to others. I see that as the most important thing I could hope to offer here.

My goal this next year is to keep this blog growing by keeping it relevant and practical to you.  I still have quite a bit to learn about this blogging thing and I'm working on posting more weekly.

Last, I'd like to thank of all you out there who continue to support me and this blog by your regular visits. I appreciate it greatly.  But don't keep this place to yourselves.  If you've been blessed by this blog, tell others about it. Spread the word to your family, friends and coworkers.
