I'm listening to Cross movement. I love this Rap group. They sling truth that doesn't hold punches but gives it all like a machine Gun. They inspire me, and give me hope for this world. When I hear the rap "redefined" I see how small my God has become in my eyes, by seeing how big he is in theirs.
Lately, the Lord's been showing me that I'm never going anywhere until I am intimately in tune with his word. I'm in tune with his world but not his word, I can make relationships with the best of them and I can love people where they're at like it's my job (which it happens to be), but I still feel lost in my study of the word. I realize that's what I went to seminary for but it's true, for one reason or another the word just won't stay in my head! I can't tell you how frustrating that is... it's just really frustrating.
I need prayer to know the Word of the Lord for the Sake of his world. I need his wisdom on how to do that. I've tried learning in conventional ways, and nothing seems to make it stick, but I have to make it stick or this ministry thing will fall flat! In a related note, I'm praying for Amanda to know the Lord, she goes to a huge baptist church and is living a life that smacks of attendence without true change. Kenia, who is doing pretty much the same, and my buddy J, who seems to surprise me every day with how much the Lord is doing in his Life. I'm praying that the Lord continues to allow us to work together even after we leave, so that he can know Him so well it makes him shine brighter than he already does. What a treat it's been to be his friend.
I still don't know how to love my wife as effectively as I ought. I'm trying and she says I'm doing well, but I really think I can improve how I show her my love. I need that Lord.
