Colossians 3:1-2 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.

I have lost focus. God wired me with a desire to help people. He then placed me in a service business where true needs are met, but by the nature he designed me with, and the nature of my industry, it can be a fatal combination; you can truly work yourself to death with workload and the conditions we work in. With the physical strains comes the lure of wealth, and through that door Satan walks in to place all the lusts of the world in our hearts. The harder we work, the more stuff we can have. I do thank God I have learned to say no in recent years for my health alone. It took the wisdom of my young boys to point out how far I had gotten away from God recently. The demands of work and the snares of Satan have taken my eyes off where I desire to help others more than anything; to repent and believe in the Gospel and to live their lives as disciples of Jesus Christ.

My heart is sickened at the state of affairs in my country. My heart is sickened at how we have turned our backs on God glorifying gay marriage. I have no hate towards anyone, but as a nation we have mocked God even with a symbol of God’s promise, plastered in rebellion over our nations capital. We as a nation will pay for that mistake. Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. I am not to here to argue the weight of sins; sin is sin, and only God knows the heart where true sin lies. We all have hidden sins that appear only to God; we all have our struggles with the mind and lusts of it; we are all lost in our sin. But, these inner struggles are where we gain the understanding of God’s mercy and grace. How can God love and bless us like he does when he knows how truly messed up we are? There is a very big difference in hidden sins and mocking God by trampling on the covenant that he designed in marriage, by designing a man and a women in the beginning of time; not two like beasts.

Being a disciple in the USA is about to become real difficult. We are to stand for what we believe no matter the cost. We will loose friends and family members that tell us we are wrong on any level. We will be persecuted for righteousness sake, but we are to preach from the mountaintops that we need to repent. Mark 1:14 Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15 and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.” My desire is to help you with much more than heating and cooling your home. My desire is to point you to the only way to keep you from a place that is really hot and last an eternity. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. The gospel could be your air conditioner for an eternity.
