"My name is _____. I am seventeen years old."
"I grew up in a Christian home. I regret my baptism in June '04. I met both my first best friend and Jesus when I was thirteen. My life has been/still is a real piece of work."
"God allowed things to happen in my life. By age 11 I was hopelessly chained to first masturbation and later pornography. 2 Corinthians 12. I have spent years learning that God paid for what I have done and will do. Not to say that it is OK.. But God has used my failures to strengthen me, and he continues to do so."
"IT'S ALL ABOUT HIM."Who is it about in your heart?
"I'm alive today to testify to the Living God. I am alive today to be a burning light. I'm alive today to die to myself and lose it all. ♪I've got a plan to lose it all♪ that's right. I listen to Switchfoot. Yeah Baby. I'm here to forget about Me and sit at Jesus' feet. I'm here to tell you that NO MATTER WHAT you are going through, NO MATTER WHAT YOU'VE DONE or ever will do, JESUS SAVES. IT'S ALL ABOUT HIM."
"Turn your eyes upon Jesus"
Do you really want to focus on you? Do you want what you do to matter? Do you want it to matter every single time you screw up (and you will screw up)? Do you want to live by the law which condemns, or by Grace which sets free?
This morning I took an hour out of my day. No classes till noon--sinch. I spent that time worshipping, fixing my eyes on Jesus, sitting at his feet. Nothing else matters. NOTHING. Not even your pitiful ideas about doing something 'for the kingdom' cause guess what guys, you can't do it. Guess what else. All that God has called you to do is to be his child. Sitting at his feet, focused on his face, trusting him, loving on him. The work is God's business, yours is to be His.
Did I miss something?
What's your heart focus?
