Explosive-Energy moves the Spirit-of-Quest: His Truths ripple the Way-of-the-Cross
Teaching for Jesus has been The Bomb, living for Jesus is an Adventure because His Truths ripple the Way-of-the-Cross. When coaching youngsters about God’s rules; telling Truths, being Pure and Living at Peace are great topics. Some day’s Explosive-Energy moves the Spirit-of-Quest to share Christ’s victories, other days our Lord is passionate about Pain and Suffering while on earth.
This world is a Payton-Place[1] were nothings perfect but God. Governmental Hypocrisy, Social Inequities and Class Privilege fill our headlines while Jesus clears the path to righteousness. Ask a Teenager what is Pure and there’s silence, ask them what is Free and there’s confusion, but ask them what’s Unfair and the room is filled with Voice. Examples of discrimination continue to plague our Nations; will it take Christ’s victorious return to settle the score?
“I thought to myself, ‘I would love to treat you as my own children!’ I wanted nothing more than to give you this beautiful land— the finest possession in the world. I looked forward to your calling me ‘Father,’ and I wanted you never to turn from me. But you have been unfaithful to me, you people of Israel! You have been like a faithless wife who leaves her husband. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
Voices are heard high on the windswept mountains, the weeping and pleading of Israel’s people. For they have chosen crooked paths and have forgotten the Lord their God. “My wayward children,” says the Lord, “come Back to me, and I will heal your wayward hearts.”
“Yes, we’re coming,” the people reply, “for you are the Lord our God. Our worship of idols on the hills and our religious orgies on the mountains are a delusion. Only in the Lord our God will Israel ever find salvation. From Childhood we have watched as everything our ancestors worked for—their flocks and herds, their sons and daughters—was squandered on a delusion.
Let us now lie down in shame and cover ourselves with dishonor, for we and our ancestors have sinned against the Lord our God. From our childhood to this day we have never obeyed him.” (Jeremiah 3:20-25 NLT)
In an instant God can Forgive and Forget inequities, so should people. Keep your mornings Pure and Simple, nights Clean and Sober and days in Humbled-Service while Jesus sends Peaceful Prosperity your way.
