play in short

Did you know Jason commited suicide?? Senior girl to another girl.
Oh No, I just talked to him yesterday.
It is just awful. I feel really bad. Senior
Why you blew him off, and made him look small every time you could.
Gee I never wanted him to kill himself, just to quit talking to me. Senior
Well he went to my youth group and because of my friends, I shunned him, I will be different from here on out.
She leaves to set in the lunchroom with a guy that everyone else don't see.

Do we exemplify Christ or or friends??

lucky or blessed

You never get a ticket, why?? The Lord says Obey the laws of the Land.
You protest abortion, is that not a law of the land? Yes, but in this case the law of the Lord supercedes the local law.
So if it is a law but agaist God then you obey God?? Yes, if you really do as you beleive you have to set a standard and live by it.

soliders story

A solider lay crying, disheartened, alone. He had once had friends but they deserted him after
they heard his story.
He had decided to leave, he was not the man he used to be.
He was one of the soliders who had slapped Jesus and helped weave the crown of thorns. He
never realized what kind of man the army had made him till Jesus looked at him. He went to the
cross when Jesus died.
He was frightened and didn't understand the darkness and the earthquake, he had never seen
the like of it.
He was assigned to guard the grave, why?? Why guard a dead man, he wasn't going anywhere.
He was there when the stone rolled away and was struck as if dead.
The soliders reported to their captain and he took them to the Jewish High Council, the Jews
paid them not to report this.
The soliders started dying in different ways and the solider knew he would be next, the High
Council wanted no one alive to know the true story.
He deserted one night when on guard duty, and went to Galilee and took a job as a fisherman
he grew his beard wore a turban and clothes of the area.
Some of the fishermen talked of Jesus, the rabbi who was crucified, some said Jesus was the
son of God.
The solider learned of the Chosen People and their history, he asked few questions, and this
got some of the Jews talking of Moses, Abraham and the phrophets. He found a few beleived
Jesus was the Messiah.
He asked what a Messiah was and found out, it was one who would save his people, some
thought Jesus was going to bring all nations under their feet, till he was crucified then they
lost hope. Some though thought Jesus was more about their souls and getting them back
to God.
When he heard these things, he was scared because he had helped kill Jesus.
One day he heard some of the fishermen talking to a man named Peter, about Jesus.
Peter said Jesus is not dead.. He is alive and giving new life every day to those that beleive
on him.
The solider asked Peter how he knew Jesus was alive, and Peter said I have talked with
him and ate with him.
The solider told Peter his story and how he had come to be there. He also told Peter
about how bad he felt because of what he done.
Peter taught him how to pray and how to ask for forgiveness, the solider felt so clean and
new, and he knew Jesus did love him.
He went to his home and told others what had happened some beleived and they formed
a church.

fathers faith

John 4:50 You may go. Your son will live.
The man took Jesus at his word and departed.

Jesus healed his son, because the father asked, Ask and ye shall receive "seek and ye shall find.
When we ask forgiveness, Jesus gives freely.

The man took Jesus at his word and departed. we need to take Jesus at his word, we are free in
him, our old man and the little demons whisper no you are not clean. We need to take Jesus at
his word and say no I AM Free and been washed and I will not dwell in the negative.

what is up with the pharisee

You see a man withered hand and he is healed by Jesus, do you go to him and say Master you are truly wonderful.
No the Pharisee wants to kill Jesus, just doesn't make sense.

is it

Is it possible to please God?? To make the creator of the World love you so much he is going to say yes to every prayer you make?? No, if yu want to please the creator then you would worship because of who he is. Nothing in it for you but, the joy of touching God and him touching you.
God wants you to have the desires of yur heart, he wants your desires to be holy and not carnal.
He don't answer some the way we want because it would hurt us..

baby

When I got to hold my children for the first time, I KNEW without a doubt what Love was and is I mean a part of me, that I would die for, was in my hands. They were without a doubt a miracle and I also knew that I would never be the same. I would worry fret and pray for them and try to never let them get hurt, Proably over protective.
Lets take this to God, he looked down, saw creation and the animals and man and knew it was good. He also had a giganic love for that creation. He had to destroy it and this had to hurt the
heart of God.
When he looks down and sees his creation reject him, this has to hurt, he is love unimagable and for him to see man reject his sons sacrifice, I am surprized he has let us around so long, but he is love grace and mercy rolled into one
