I'm in town, yup fairly local this week. And enjoying it.

Yup, a local. This week.. I’m fairly local and hangin' around with the locals. I’ve seen the streets you’re walking down. I’m here and content, but never mind bein’ sent.. instead of just went. Like so many, just went and without a penny. Too much is at stake, it can make one shake.

Kurt, what have I musing on this week? Just a lot of random good thoughts. 

Not though dreams, feelings or visions so much, but simply reading and or hearing the Bible – that’s the primary way God speaks to people today. #aLoveLtr2believers

Why not live in it daily to clearly hear what He has to say to you. Live in the Lord, He loves you. 

Pain doesn’t make people change, but it sometimes makes it easier for people to change.

"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Psalm 147:3

Are you hurting today? Got a disease or sickness? Look to Jesus.

Many talk about going to a higher level of influence.

So what happens when you treat others better than they treat you?

A higher level of impact happens.

Personally, I like practical kindness and uplifting encouraging words better than other types of alleged kindnesses. How ‘bout you?  

With some Help individuals can get good. Goals can be good, have some.

Growth is better than goals.

Who doesn’t like good, or good goals, or growth? I say…

Prayerfully applying the Word of God, go turn good goals into consistent growth.. on multiple levels grow and simply live up to your full potential.

Healthy in spirit > Sickly in spirit

“You are good and do good; Teach me Your statutes.” Psalm 119:68

What should move you and me? People in need – especially the weak and vulnerable. In America, we’ve been living with Roe verses Wade for 45 years now, and approximately 60 million preborn people (babies) have literally been lost their lives as a result. Stronger one took their lives and didn’t give them a choice. Let’s unify, yeah join together, all across this nation, in total solidarity with our brothers and sisters takin’ a stand against such murders. It’s the right thing to do.

The First Sitting US President ever ..to Address "The March for Life" against Abortion Today in Washington DC. Why? Cuz real "love ..it always protects".

“The March for Life is a movement born out of love,” President Trump says. “You love every child born and unborn because you believe that every life is sacred, that every child is a precious  gift from God.”

Why did God the Father send His Son?

“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through Him.” John 3:17

It ain’t about finding people to condemn to God the Father. It’s about the Solution (Jesus); it’s about loving, saving and helping people in need. 

“In essentials, unity; in nonessentials, liberty; in all things, charity." ~ Augustine  

Don’t need to elevate non-essentials to the level of essentials and then divide over em. Why do that?.. sound kinda religious to me. 

"Everyone says forgiveness is a lovely idea, until they have something to forgive." — C.S. Lewis

Don’t need to elevate non-essentials to the level of essentials and then divide over em. Why do that?

The Bible being the authoritative Word of God.. sinless Jesus Christ being the only way to the Father.. and salvation coming through Christ and Christ alone.

Those are essentials. Our unity as believers is to be around Him and essentials. Sure, cuz too many try to make it be around others things (Read more on this…). 

Who needs dead rituals and junk?

“But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works, otherwise grace would no longer be grace.” Romans 11:6

Efforts in earnin’ it.. done with all that.

Free grace, new Friend! 

Don’t mean some kind of strange energy-light. No, no.

“In Him was life, and that life was the light of men.” ~ John 1:4

The Light ..this pure Person.. has come into the world, but weirdest thing.. people loved darkness more than Him and his holy light. It was and is because the deeds were evil.  

And what's up with using that hashtag.. #Fish4peeps Kurt?

I like to remind people of a most important secondary ministry that get's overlooked.

Well, the Great Commission was given to all believers – fishin’ to catch men, women, boys and girls to #Christ.  

And who was left out among us regarding this? None. Nada. No one is excused from this.

You know there are some called to be evangelists, but all are called to go evangelize. No need to ever be pushy with that, but there should be a sense of urgency about you. You and I love our friends and family members! 

You can do this.. go share your faith with boldness!

Paul spoke to Timothy about it.. “the glorious #Gospel of the blessed God which was committed to [his] trust” (1 Timothy 1:11).

Just passed an old friend in the back hall in Plano, GL 65 now and not letting up at all. We'll be with him again on Tuesday Jan 23, 18 in Cowboy Stadium for the kick off so to speak. Man, I pray God'll use him and his HarvestAmerica.com team to out-do what we saw happen last time there. 

What draws people to be friends is that they see the same truth. They share it. ~ C.S. Lewis

Some people add infinite weight to their words by wisely living the good principles that they teach.

Pray or praise, I like the options.

Both can be a form of pure worship to the Lord.

“Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise.” James 5:13

Be encouraged to pray earnestly instead of worry. Yeah, stop it, no mo worry Bobby Buzzkill and Doneeka Downer.

Attach the right address. Some don’t.

Prayer is not to inform God ..or command.

Prayer is to ask and INVITE God!

Prayin’ (the daily connection and relationship) is liked more than merely sayin’ your prayers.

Pray. Enter that rest! No, not all stressed. Be blessed. No worries mates!

“Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
