Long Time.

It has been a long time since i posted anything on this...
I think I am returning to this. For better reasons. I have so many thoughts that maybe posting them might help me and others. Ha. Plus I love my family and there are so many profound things that happen with my kids, I have to share. Also, I really enjoy photography so this blog will be an outlet for that. I guess...

One of my favorite pictures while on a plane to Chile. Shot on an iphone.

1Church Event.

When the world sees Christianity, they see a people separated by belief systems. What they may not see, and what we ourselves might not recognize, is the power of the 1 thing that brings us together. If we as Christians erase the denominational lines that divide us, even for one night, and come together to exalt the 1 God that unites us, healing will come to our land. On September 11th 2009 at 7pm, we invite you to come together as 1, to worship and contend for the restoration of community. This isn’t a night to make a name for The Freedom Center, but rather to make 1 name famous, seek after 1 heart, and become 1 church. When leaders in the body of Christ join together in praying and believing God for change, it will come. On that night, we’ll not only be believing that our community will be healed, but that Fenton can impact a community across the world in Kenya, Africa. If we shift our focus from preserving our own empires to bringing fresh water to a people on the other side of the world, we’ll start the process of healing our hearts and changing our world. We, as God’s people can weather this economic storm together, with the knowledge that we’ve been chosen. God has a plan to raise up the least of these, and for Fenton, and Michigan as a whole, to bring restoration and change. All you have to do is show up, and believe in the power of 1. Join in the vision of becoming 1 name, 1 heart, 1 church.

When: 09-11-09, 7pm
Where: The Freedom Center, Fenton (tfconline.org)
What: Contending for the sound of Heaven. Unity among the denominations.
Why: Changing the World in Kenya, Africa.

Pass this along to other churches.

change the world.

Psalm 27. So good.
Father, may our hearts not fear. May we be confident in this, that you are our illumination (light) and deliverer. May our hearts be whole because of the one thing we ask...to seek you and gaze at your beauty.
This passage is so powerful. Just so good.


1 DAY.

What We Want Most.


Psalm 27. Read it now. Read it tonight. It is literally the anthem of my heart this year. I think it is what our community needs, our state needs, our nation needs (the need is that our hearts would not fear...though our stuff is taken from us, though our hours are cut at work, though the economic crisis continues - even then will I be confident).

One thing Father...One thing I cry...guys, we must press in...join me in this pursuit of making "Faith" a reality, "considering it pure joy" a reality, "peace that passes all understanding" a reality...ONE THING Father I ask, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.

What we want most is simply this, before our debt is paid for, before my job is secure, we...want...our hearts (inner man, inner woman) to be fearless. To be secure. To be confident.
I don't know if this made sense...it's my prayer.
