This could be a long post. I dont really had it planned out. Just letting it flow. So here it goes. I try to be a Christian. I try every day to make decisions based on what God has called me to do. But in all of that, I see that I dont do one major thing. I dont share the Gospel with other. I mean, I dont actively start conversations with people about what God did for me through His Son, Jesus. My daughter, Ann Marie, has been a real blessing in my life. I know all my children are. But this morning it really dawned on me that God was working through Ann Marie to get to me, and possibly you, too. Ann Marie loves listening to WCQR in the radio. It is a Christian radio station here in the Tri-Cities. As a result, I have been listening to it more and more lately. I even heard about the Newsboys concert that is coming up next month, so I got tickets for her and I to see it. Some great songs have come on. And these are songs I never really used to listen to because it wasnt traditional liturgical music. But this morning, one song came on that really hit my between the eyes. For some reason, my brain turned on and I actually listened to the words. I tagged it in Shazam because it was an awesome message. It is called Save My Life by Sidewalk Prophets. I have linked to the video on YouTube that shows the lyrics. The lyrics that really got me were Tell me something that might save my life. We see people every day who are hurting. People who have to hide behind a mask of one sort or another just to make it through the day. And we Christians have an amazing opportunity to save someones life. My wife and I are blessed in that we work in a field where we try to save peoples life through healthy living. But what about peoples spiritual life? This is where I have failed. And I ask forgiveness from everyone with whom I have been in contact. God has put me in your life for a reason and I have let that pass. Folks, we live in a time that is uncertain. Stress abounds in everyones life. And it becomes very easy to lose sight of what truly matters. If you dont have a personal relationship with Christ, let me urge you to consider it. I would love to share my story with you. And it begins with I fall short of the Glory of God every day. And everyday He forgives me. And not because of anything I have done, with the exception of accepting His Son and confessing my sins, repenting of those sins, and being baptized in the me of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It doesnt make me perfect. But it makes me want to be. It is easy to stray. And that I why I am thankful for fellowship. Without it I am a sitting duck. With it I have a chance. You dont have to be alone with it, either. Please, take a few minutes and listen to this song. Maybe it will reach out to you like it did me.
