Coffee Life and Jesus

Well first off, I give God all the glory.  He is the greatest provider.  For those who visit my blog you will find articles of a wide range.  I will try to talk about the things that we deal with in life from day to day.  When you read the paper or look at the news, things are happening both good and bad, and the bad seem to spread far faster than the good.  It makes one think that there is more evil going on than good.  Now life without Jesus is much harder than living for him.  He gives us a better understanding about the world we live in.

Now you may see I have posted information and youtube videos about coffee.  Coffee can be a something to help you relax.  But the best way to relax is to spend time with you and the Lord, sit and have a conversation, tell him all that's on your mind, he will understand.  But when you need a something to drink remember coffee is a great way to bring things down.  What is the cause for many of the problems that we see going on it is very simple SIN.   Now what does coffee have to do with any of this?  Nothing when it comes to sin, coffee is my business a way that I earn a living.  Everything was made by God and without him nothing would exist.  Even when we face the most difficult times in life, Jesus can calm the storm.  Greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.  God's love in unconditional it has no limits, and as the bible says God is love, not the love defined by webster or any other dictionary.

If we define love the way God's says life takes on a whole new meaning.  His love never fails, it never says no even when we fall short.  His mercy is ever lasting and endure through all generation. Sometimes we have to just laugh and sometimes shake our heads.  Nothing that happens in this world should come as strange to us.  It is written in his word how things will be and what is to come.  We have to let go and let God be God for he know all things.  See life through the eyes of God.

What's going on

What's going on in the world today?  We are in the Christmas season everyone is going about trying figure out what to buy for whoever.  In sports shooting, DUI, and in our public schools shooting as well.  I read article after article about someone attacking Christmas, people protesting to take this and that down.  So how do you take it all in at the end of the day?  Well a nice hot cup of coffee or tea and allow the Lord to give us an understanding.  I truly believe that all things happen for a reason, and us being human can't seem to grasp how and why, but this is the world we live in.  Making the right decision is not easy and some people have it much harder than others when it comes to making the right choice.  Just about everything you say today can offend people.  We have become so caught up in PC this and that, and no matter how hard you try someone is looking for something to start something up.  But stay cool, drink coffee, read a good book, and the book of choice is the bible with a nice cup of coffee or tea. 

Trust

How much trust do you have and those who are leading us.  Would you trust them to make the right decisions for your life.  If it was all on the line would you trust them to protect your life before theirs.  Is it okay to give them more power and control to decide how and what you should eat.  How much trust do you have in politicians.  Do you trust them more than you trust God or yourself.  This I do know every one of our leaders are no where near God, but yet we tend to give them more control over our lives and if they know what is best for us.  But I am reminded that the word say trust no man.  If they are not following God there are only three followers left, the Devil, self and man. 

A Country Divided

Politics has taken over our country, political correctness has prevented us from seeing and calling things for what they really are.  Both political parties has cause a great divide in this country and they have done a great job to make us fight each other in order for them to hold on to power and control, so they can pass laws and other regulations on what we can and can't do.  Have we ever stopped to realize that we are allow a few so call college educated people to decide on decisions for us, and control how they think we should behave and live. 

I don't care what side of the fence you are own, understand this there is only so many ways that you can feed the poor or should I say take care of the poor, either you give them food, money or give them a job to provide for themselves.  Are we that stupid that we don't trust ourselves to make decisions that we pass it on to the them in Washington to do it for us.  Look at how they are fighting to come together to fix a simple problem, how difficult can it be.  If gas is too high, how in the world can two parties be so power hungry that they can't reach common ground on how to fix it. 

Now here's what gets me, we voted them in because they suppose to be so smart, but yet all they do is fight for power and control for a dumb party.  People to cut through all the mess that they create, it's not about us the people, it all about them the Democrats and and Republicans keeping power.  Heck if grown men and women the smart people we elect can't figure out how to solve problems as simple as gas, why are they there.  We need to stop letting them use us.

It's that simple, they are not about doing whats right for the country, but only seek to do what will keep them in control of  the power to decide things for us.  I remember riding a bike as a kid the only thing we had to do was jump on and ride, now these smart people have passed laws to required you wear helmet, knee pads and whatever else.  If you did something stupid and got hurt, lesson learned you either didn't do it again or you found a safe way to do it. 

Hate and Division

Fanning the flame of hate and division, over the last few years, I have seen hatred and division spread like wild fire. Thank for all the believers in Christ Jesus, for those of us who believe in God's word, must know and understand this. All of us came from the same two parents. Adam and Eve, we are all related just different shades of skin, we all have the same blood, we all have the same Father, same Lord, and suppose to have the same mind, thoughts and ways. Let God be God and man be man. 

Man will never get it right now matter how hard we try. Our righteousness if as filthy rags to God. Even at our best we still fall short. And with the shooting of the of the young man, if you are not a lawyer on either side, stop trying to decide the case. yes you may desire justice to be done, but stop tying to sway people to push guilt. And remember this even if the man be found guilty on every count, he still can be forgiven. Stop acting as if there is no way that God will forgive someone who murder. God's mercy is for greater. Where is forgiveness in our hearts that we allow the wrong and sin that people do make us loose sight of how God still loved us while we were yet in sin and always will.

Our Life

What value do our lives hold, what will we have accomplish in our life time.  What goals have we set and after it's all said and done, what will our life have meant.  Our life is precious and we only live for a short while, and we must understand what life is really about. 

Yes God create everything we see, and  did it for good reason, but we have taken it  and tried to make it our own.  We have taken life for granted and in the process, we have failed to maintain a relationship with our Lord.  We have placed more value on our life thinking that its all about us. 

The more we try to live without him, the worst off we become, although you may have all that this world calls good, we will have missed the best which is him. In out quest to gain the world we are loosing our soul, because we think our life is what really matters.

No Excuse

After we done lived our life, after we done everything to please ourselves.  When we stand before the Lord what will we say.  If we have not done what is pleasing to Him, what note will we present to justify our actions.  Well to be truthful and not lie to ourselves.  There is no excuse, there will be nothing we can say in defense of not obeying his word.  Church we need to get right, yes we all fall short and will always make mistakes, but never let not trying to live it to the fullest be a reason for our actions.
