Galatians 2:20  I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me.I am almost scared to begin here again. I lost this devo twice yesterday and I cannot describe the disappointment I went to bed with. I laid there this morning thinking about the events of the past few days realizing my enemy hates theses days. I have been spending quality time with a man my own age who gets it. That is gets the scripture above; and is totaly selling all and out for Christ to dedicate his life in the mission field of Indi. Satan is not pleased with the influence he is having on me and my family. Satan knows my wife is headed on herfirst mission trip next year too. Why would theses days be easy? I had one of the most edifying phone calls yesterday from another man of God who’s ministry lies in the trucking field. He boldly shares his faith and lives as a fisher of men on our highways and the airways of a CB radio. Both of these men were sent by God into my life for a purpose anthose purpose will be found by the time I spend with God. Does the company you keep build you up or drag you down? Do you hear Godly wisdom coming from the lips or worldly garbage? The importance and influence of those you surround yourself with shows where your heart lies. 1 Corinthians 5:33 “Do not be deceived: Evil company corrupts good habiyou’ll You cannot surround yourself with people who do not believe in Christ as you do without Godly influences also. You can share your faith with your old friends but you cannot allow them to be the predominate influence in your life. Seek building relationships with those who have a heart for God and the things of God to help you AND THEM along this road of liheaded axed home.

It changed that day Matthew 4:19 Then He said to them, “Follow Me and I will make you fishers of men.” As I sit here in the peace of the beach in the early hours I prayed a prayer of thanksgiving for all this place brings to me. Of His creation of the tides, rising and falling only feet all over the world. This done for centuries with little variance and to a pof that He is askto change pray to Him for that binder to be revealed and removed. There might be a day in your history that you look back and reflect on the day everything changed in your relationship with the Creator of it.
