Life is the 'stuff ' that is happening (in our absence) while one is sometimes caught-up in aimlessly mingling around, due to circumstances & consequently only 'looking on'......
Unless a clear-cut , definite sense & purpose forms an integral part of it, it is most of the time to NO avail & without any long-term 'affect' or Significance !
Decisions are not destinations - but rather journeys - journeys along ancient paths...
I've have NOT found some new way - but rather rediscovered the path as old as Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
The same path followed by Moses, Joshua and Caleb - Paul, John, Peter, Timothy and Titus.
The path followed by 'true successful warriors of the past', -that revolutionized the culture of their time and beyond.
The path followed by 'true successful warriors of the past', -that revolutionized the culture of their time and beyond.
It is a path that will impact the community we live in today.
It is a path of liberty, freedom, and healing, significance, purpose, and destiny.
This is a path less traveled - however, it is not a path only available to a select few but to whosoever will, may come.....
I have decided that ........It is a path of liberty, freedom, and healing, significance, purpose, and destiny.

* Knowing about God without truly knowing & experiencing an intimate Relationship with the Living God, Jesus Christ, is just as meaningless.
* Having a good program is not enough, that change without transformation is intolerable & that staying the same is not an option.

* Gifting without Character is futile......
* Singing songs without worshiping is hollow and having a meeting without God showing up is pointless.
* Having faith without works is not enough & having works without Love is not acceptable - that my 'significance as human being' comes out of my relationship

* Reading about the book of Acts without living the book of Acts is fruitless.

* Believing in....
- His presence without seeing it manifested in signs and wonders is hypocrisy,
- healing without seeing people healed is absurd,
- deliverance without people being delivered is absolutely ridiculous.
* To be Holy Spirit filled, Holy Spirit led and Holy Spirit empowered - anything less doesn't work for me.
* To be the one telling the stories of God's power - not the one only hearing about them.
* I'm a battle ship not a cruise ship, member of an army, not an audience, a special force operational member not a spectator, a missionary not a club member.
* To value both pioneering & being a settler.

Others, beside I, me & myself are my Calling.
* To be more concerned about how many people I might positive influence in the world to aspire to something/somebody more, than how many I convince to be only my friend.

People are meant to find & optimize their God-given Potential & Call. Me making mistakes & not being Perfect will not be the measure of who I am in Christ or the measure of my effectiveness on those I do come in contact with.........
