I have an Ark



Yesterday i sat down to watch the news a little bit. Sometimes i like to take some time to watch it just to see what events are going on and stuff. But yesterday i could only watch for about 5 minutes. i was horrified! I could not believe in those first 5 minutes all the horrible things i heard! there were no good stores or even sports stats or anything.

One of the stories was on a little 7 year old girl who was shot by a drive by shooting and guess who the suspect is? her step mother what?? that's insane! and the argument supposedly is over custody so dumb!

another story was about a normal traffic stop in Pasadena where one car that was stopped the driver got out and open fired on all of the cops standing there! are you kidding me! the cops killed him.

If you go to any news website you will see the same kinds of stories man suspected in 14year old girl rape... custodian arrested for fondling... man kills himself in crystal cathedral.... stolen explosives.... the list goes on and on not to mention the economy and wall street and new budget signed that create their own problems

All I can say is it's insane!! and something needs to change!

As i was doing my devotions this morning i am in the book of Jeremiah which totally talks about the depravity and disgust of people! The Lord is pleading with them to turn away from these things and turn back to Him.


Jeremiah 4:3-4

“ Break up your fallow ground,
And do not sow among thorns.
Circumcise yourselves to the LORD,
And take away the foreskins of your hearts,
You men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem,
Lest My fury come forth like fire,
And burn so that no one can quench it,
Because of the evil of your doings.”

Last night we were talking about how the Lord in Noah's time wiped out everyone and how Noah was preaching to these people saying "I have an Ark just come repent and get on board the Lord will save you!"

We need to go out and tell people of the Saving power of Jesus and testify of the great things that He has done!! we need to stop sitting by and watch this world fall apart and get more corrupt we need to do something! "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" mark 16:15

I'm good. :)

I can't really explain it, because it's too much information that shouldn't be shared...

and I think a lack of communication is the biggest thing I am frustrated about. :)

But, I am good overall... just little hiccups. :)
