Where are we going..
My pastor always tells us, ' if you don't know where you are going, thats where you'll end up'. I often find myself trying to go down every road I can and do as much as I can for the Lord, but what happens is I get stretched thin and wind up going in circles which is basically saying I do not know where I am going. When ever this happens I have to take a couple of steps back, get back to the basics and try again. What I mean by that is I get back on my knees and pray, get back into Gods word and go from there. One thing I can say about being a christian is not every christian is called to do everything. God has given us talents and gifts. Let us get back to the basics and learn how to use them......Timothy Oliff

Jesus at work
When we hired on to a company, we agree to do a job for them, and they agreed to pay us x amount of dollars. We must make sure we do our job first. Do not let being a christian and winning people to Jesus get your job, because it can happen. If we spend all of our time on the job witnessing to others than our job is not getting done and someone will start asking why. We are not getting paid to witness to others. We can get to the job early if we want to plus we have 2-15min breaks and a 30 min lunch. Use that time wisely. There will be other times when it is ok to witness. Remember we might be the only jesus people will ever see, so be a light and let it shine.

ephesians 6:10-17, Put on the full armor of God.......... In these verses it talks about the 'belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, feet shod with readyness, helmet of salvation, the shield of faith and the sword of the spirit which is the word of God ' all this armor is meant to protect us except the sword of the spirit. This is the only peice of armor that we can attack with and it just so happens that its the word of God. So think about this, the less you know of the word of God the smaller your sword is and therefore the closer you have to get to the enemy to battle. The more you know of Gods word the bigger your sword is and the farther you can reach out and attack your enemy. How big is your sword?

How bright is your light?
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your father in heaven-Matthew 5:16
As a christian i am going to let everything I do reflect Jesus Christ. That means watching what I say, paying attention to how I react in a given situation, and most importantly being ready to pray for anybody at any time. So let your light shine, let everyone know and see what amazing things Jesus is doing in your life. Remember, we might be the only Jesus some people will ever see.......God Bless

1 Corinthians 3:16- Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the spirit of God dwells in you. We are the temple of God, We were created in his image. Let us be mindful of what we put into our bodies and let us be mindful of what we put into our minds. Let our appearance, speech, and our attitudes reflect God dwelling inside of us. I hope you all have a great day.

Good Morning everyone. I want to tell you how great my weekend was with my wife and daughter. We had o lot of fun at galveston. If you will go to your Bible and turn to Phillipians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. As we go through the day, lets look at where we are in our walk with God and just examine our selves. What areas are we aware of where Jesus has given us strength to make it through. Write them down so you can reflect back on them one day. Tell the Lord how grateful you are to have him to lean on. Part of doing all things through Christ is having faith that you can do it. Trust in Jesus today. IN HIS NAME

Proverbs 3:5&6, Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your paths. When we put our trust in the Lord what were saying is I will trust in you, I will continue to walk down the paths you made for me and even though I do not understand I know that Jesus is in complete control. Even though my faith might waiver a little, I will trust in you Father. In God we trust.

My Motivation for Made4Jesus Ministries
My inspiration comes from Jesus. I started Made4Jesus Ministries to give a name to all the creative things the Lord is doing in my life. My passion is to give everyone a chance to hear about Jesus Christ. The number one goal in my life is to send Christian starter kits to foreign countries as well as here in America. A " Christian starter kit " is a King James Bible, small legal pad, highlighter, ink pen, inspirational bookmarks and tracts, and instructions on how to pray in Jesus name. I started passing them out during a shut-down in Baytown, TX at the Exxon chemical plant. It has been almost one year and so far I have passed out 100 total. I mailed 30 of those 100 Christian starter kits to Naoirobi Africa to Pastor James Munene who is doing awsome things for the Lord. I will write some more later. God bless You and Jesus loves you.
