Well, my first blog is about some things that have been heavy on my heart as of late. I've been in the ministry of the gospel,most of my life and have been in church all of it. I 've seen some great people in ministry who have made an impact on people in a positive way. And then I've seen people in the Faith who have made negative impacts as well. Some have fallen so hard in this arena that they haven't been able to recover due to the standard that is placed on them in the eyes of the people..... Yes, the people.
Certainly, according to the Holy Bible, there are things that God wants all believers to follow and structure there lives to according to HIS word, but the truth is that there is not one Christian who is so tight with God because of their ACTIONS being so pure! At the end of the day, when we pray to God, we all have things we need to repent of . All OF US! In God's eyes, Just because I don't kill people , doesn't make me any different if I'm a liar. ( James 2:10-11) .  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't think that i am excusing sin. GOD hates sin. As believers, we should too. But because sin is apart of our lives we can't pretend as if we don't have to address sin because we are so "holy".

  I truly believe that alot of people have been destroyed because of one reason... not being HONEST!

  Not being Honest with God, nor with themselves. See, Iwe can learn to be honest with our issues that we know has to be address, It closes the door for people to be able to destroy you when you've already acknowledge the fact that God is doing the working on the situation. Sure, people will say what they want to about you because people will be people. But, If you are free within yourself of know that its something that you and the Lord are dealing with, people really don't matter when it comes to what they think. God will have he final say about it, NOT people. Those same people have to be covered under the blood of Christ as we all do. If you build your life on trying to please people, you won't last long at keeping it. People will always have a different standards for you. You can only be concerned about what God thinks and let HIM work through all of the issues that you have. After all, He is your creator, not people. He knows everything you are going through, have gone through, and will go through. Not people. Live for Him , not people! When that happens, not matter what, You'll be more at peace with God and with yourself. If there is any fixing that needs to be done, God will let you know and you'll make adjustments according to HIM, not people!

  The truth is that the difference between the spiritual leaders with postive impact and negative impact is that we may know the sin of one and not of the other. Yeah, we as people determine which one is a big deal or not. But to GOD, all in the same boat! That's about it!
