God filled me with the Holy Ghost on April 16th 1995. That was the greatest thing that had ever happened to me. I finally had found what I had been looking for all of my life.
The road hasn't always been easy. Lot's of twist, turns and bumps. I have managed to hang on even though there have been times when it was just barely. I'm in it to win it.
I have had my share of being hurt in church. Church, the place where I found refuge and joy. Not a place that you would expect hurt by fellow believers.
I have seen many people come and go. Not everyone is drawn away by their own lust. A good bit have left because they were offended.
. of·fend·ed, of·fend·ing, of·fends
v.tr.
1. To cause displeasure, anger, resentment, or wounded feelings in.
2. To be displeasing or disagreeable
We alot of times as believers full of the Holy Ghost forget where we came from. We develop a holier than thou attitude. We need to remember ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God. That means you and me.
We must have love for everyone. Love the sinner not the sin.
If our brother is struggeling instead of knocking them down any further lift them up. Show them compassion not condemnation. Love them as you love yourself.
If we are to call ourselves Christian we need to be one. Not only in word.
Reach out to that hurting soul. Love them. Show them Jesus.
