Raw-N-Uncut: Yeah I Said It...!

WARNING: This Ain’t Your Average Blog Entry

Real Talk:

Today I throw structure, syntax, and standard English to the wind! I gotta give it to you how it came to me. I woke up this morning with my heart heavy and speaking loudly! And this was the message it conveyed this fine morning:

It’s sad when you get more sound advice from sinners than supposed saints. I marvel at people who sit on holy pedestals but continue to hold resentment, unforgiveness, strife, and bitterness and think that their spot is secured in heaven. Don’t be deceive because just when you’re certain that your heavenly mansion is guaranteed it gets filled by those who you would least expect. Don’t get caught slipping!

The world knows more about God than you think they do and when given God’s final ultimatum many (especially those thought to be far gone) will choose wisely. So, don’t think that your spot is so secure because you’ve been at this “faith walk” for 20 years! Check yourself daily, renewing your mind with the word; all the while, thanking God for new mercies.

We are all one Jesus away from hell so you better make sure you really know Him, or better yet He really knows you!

And for the record truly knowing Jesus has nothing to do with the number of titles you don, or the special parking space reserved for you at the front of your church building. No, Jesus resides in the day to day decisions that you make when everything in your soul (mind, emotions, & will) screams CHEAT, STEAL, LIE, KILL, and you decide to take the righteous road! That’s true Kingdom living; not how many times you punch in on your “good works” religious time clock.

So don’t be so quick to toot your nose up at those you deem heathens. They may be more Kingdom secure than you POSER!

The very people that are held as pious and upstanding saints in the world’s eyes are the ones whom heaven has yet to check-in on the entry roll. So don’t get it twisted for two seconds when you think your way of praise or worship is more superior than someone who possess no church etiquette. God, desires pure, unadulterated praise and sacrificial worship because those who worship Him, worship Him in spirit and in truth. So, be not deceived because your timely, well choreographed, on-beat, two-step won’t get you into heaven if your heart is found muddied and foul!

So with declaration from my core, I vow to this day to GET OVER MYSELF and I pray you follow suit!
