I will be the first to say that I am undeserving of love and anything that is life. I will definitely be the first to say that I have messed up terribly many times and at times feel like I have been the worst of sinners. In saying that I will also be the first to say that I have an unexplainable joy and a desire to love whole heartedly that does not come from me, but rather something greater than me. I know for a fact that I am a sinner and that in order for there to be any life and reconciliation there must have been something that atoned for that sin. It is only through the love of God and the death of Jesus, the Christ, that I might be saved. Not only the death, but also the fact that Jesus rose from the dead and is surely alive. Colossians 2:13...I was dead in my transgressions, but now I am alive in Christ. I may be the worst of sinners, but I am clean, pure, free from sin.
Oh man, first blog and I'm going heavy and right in the face. The reason for this is to make it clear that there is nothing that I have done to deserve any love. But, because of the great love of a deeply gracious God I no longer struggle with anxiety, worry, or things that go along with that. I was once a very anxious worried man who struggled with things that were out of my control. No longer do I have any anxiety. That pumps me up. And although I am tempted to do wrong, I do not desire to do it.
So, why this? The purpose of this blog is to first share any daily devotions I am having in the Word of God. Secondly, the purpose of this blog is to examine how the Church of Christ (Not specifically the denomination "Church of Christ") but specifically the Christian church is involved in social media. Whether it be Christian music, mainstream or solely worship, or any news in the society involving church related stuff I want to talk about it. It is from the inside of my mind/heart to the outside world that I desire to create this blog. This blog has the desire to discuss and help understand how the Bible applies to everyday life.
I would love to share anything that is on my heart. If you want something that will challenge you in ways that you might have never expected stay tuned. Trust me....this is going to be fun! (and definitely interesting)
Pretty crazy first post in the world of blogs. I am pumped about this.
Please feel free to leave comments. I will attempt to address many if not all of the comments left in any of the posts.
