Roller coaster

Wow what a week it has been! On Thursday I had the difficult honor of preaching the gospel for a friends family and friends in Ft. Worth. Last night I preached the gospel to a small group in Lake Deerwood by Lake of the Pines in east Texas. In Ft. Worth there was a capacity crowd with names like Vann Clyburn, Mr. and Mrs. Bass and some of the most influential people in Ft. Worth along with immigrants from Sri Lanka, Australia and the UK. At Lake Deerwood it was just over 20 people, many of whom were recovering addicts and lower income. Here is the point. The dress was different, music was different, style was different, environment was different, religious background was different, and the socioeconomic backgrounds were different. However, the message was the same! At the end of the day, we are all people who have fallen short of what we were designed to be, have led our own lives, and can not make ourselves good enough to be in the presence of the creator of the universe. But God loves us, sent His son to die for our shortcomings and independence, Jesus rose so He could save us, and as many as receive Him, those He makes the children of God for eternity! Well, that's more preaching than I usually do on here, but something tells me we all need to know that! In Longview today. Will try to bring some stuff from Solid Rock this week. Love you all and thanks for following! You can also follow me on twitter now if you wish! Live fast, our day is coming sooner than we plan for! Love ya all!
