Whats going on - an update

For those that dont know, I made the decision to get rid of everything I owned and move across country to California with just what I could carry.  I didnt know what would happen but I knew God would provide and that I would grow in the process.  I really needed a new change and I needed a new life.

Now that I am finally getting settled in and getting used to the scenery I felt it would be a good idea to update everyone on my journey so far.

The first thing I realize is that in order to do something for God you must give your all into it.  In fact Christ tells us that we are to lose our lives for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven.  If we started off with just sacrificing everything that we are for the greater good of God's kingdom then we would see a different picture painted of the church today.

I see that this is true because in order to keep up out here you must have your heart all in it.  You cant just show up every so often and expect change to happen, you must be committed to what you have set your mind on.  God has given us all some desire and avenue to do His will, now we just have to commit to it.  If we dont, what does that show about our hears?

I've had the pleasure of dwelling with people who only want to change the world for Christ.  I think we all need to have this mindset to start off with.  Too often we are limited to what we can do because we are told we cant do it or that its not possible.  I remember Christ saying that if you believe to be possible then it can happen.  Thats the faith that we are to have and that is the gift we are given.

Just a thought to chew on for today.
