...that you have left your first love. Therefore remember from where you have fallen, and repent and do the deeds you did at first. (Rev.2:4-5) But we will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word. (Acts6:4) Good morning everyone! Just to let all know I will be limiting my time here on FB. The events around the world, in our own country, in my own family, have been weighing heavily on my heart. When I first became a follower of Christ, I rarely was out of His Word, or not praying. Fast forward ten years and I am on FB or watching TV, more than either of those things. Prayer was my nature, my gift. Ive seen many fortresses crumble. I was given a special understanding of His word, to help others and speak into the lives of many that were broken or just needed guidance or a word of encouragement. I have fallen asleep! I have neglected God, the gifts He has blessed me with, and my family. This world is in turmoil, like has rarely been seen before on many levels. We have been given power to take down enemy fortresses (prayer and the truth of Gods Word) and should we, I, neglect these things, we neglect ourselves, our families, our Brothers and Sisters everywhere. What I am really trying to say here is, I am returning to the fire...the fire that burned in me what seems so long ago. Devotion to God, the gifts He has given me, and my family. Bottom line is, I used to be SO jealous with my mornings with God. Not so much anymore. I still get up early, but being intimate with God sometimes is not my priority and I miss that terribly. So, I was thinking if I remain on FB, it will probably be in the evenings. I want my mornings back! :) I know Ive been here before, but this seems different to me this time. Plus my wife has been secretly praying for me to prioritize again, among some other things, and that is always a dangerous place for me to be in. :D Now, this is a good thing, not a bad thing. OK! I am just spilling thoughts out on you that take the time to read this and there most likely will be more to come as God works things out in my heart and I talk more with Kim and my babies, who I have been neglecting...again. :( Be fervent in prayer and pray without ceasing. This world needs us! Comments, counsel, opinions, encouragement, are welcome. Blessings and Happy Friday everyone!!! :)
