She's Like Texas - Josh Abbott Band.

Goodbye

November 28,2011 1:39 AM

                This is a letter to Claire, that I will never send. It will help me to write down my feelings in order to fully move on. I honestly still wish that I could pick up the phone and hear her sweet voice, the typical “Hello” with her was more like a breath of fresh air J I guess though sometimes love is not felt each way, and while I didn’t know her long enough to fall in love from what I did come to know she was everything I wanted to fall in love with/for.

                I’m  not perfect, who is? Jesus , but maybe I wasn’t compassionate enough and maybe God took you away because I wasn’t on the right road in my heart. Through the maybes though, I understand that I expressed to you how much I cared for you and those feelings still live even after you shut em down, and after knowing that you are with another guy now. It’s unique, I’ve never thought I would hold onto a flame/feelings knowing that you chose another guy over me, but I guess here that situation is.

                In some ways I feel like becoming Rocky Balboa, taking up boxing and wishing for this guy to be my opponent in the ring. And while I’d love to fight him for you, I wouldn’t fight someone for love because I wouldn’t have to if you loved me back. I would just like to beat him up and then walk away the victor. Maybe that is immature, maybe it’s human nature or even insecurity. I don’t know but I wanted to write down how much I cared about you, how I can’t ever stop thinking about you more than a few days at most, and how I wish to God I would have came and seen you, and been a better man. I pray God hears my heart, and you come back; although this letter would then lack purpose as I am trying to put all of my feelings down so that I can truly move on. Thank you  God.  I do hope you are smiling and happy, I am strong enough to be alone because I have my faith in God and he knows my heart.  And there must be someone better for me.  I trust in the Lord, walk by faith not bight sight or even by feeling as my heart had all of those going on.

Jesus hear us now.

Jesus be with us.

Today I witnessed a man dead in the middle of the freeway, and it was a tragic sight. I hope Jesus is with him, and we should all be reminded of how fragile life is, and the important trek to the grace of our God; and eternity in heaven.

My good friend  Avalon has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and there's a 10-25% chance of survival, but I believe with my heart that God will heal her. Jesus please hear our cries, we are crying out for you both personally and as a nation.

Thank you.

Abortion? What does the Bible Say.

Statistics: 50,000 a week is the average in the United States, since 1973; there have been apprx 40 million abortions.

Think about all the people that could be walking around today that aren't, never given a chance to walk. Who could have been the next Ronald Reagan, Mozart, Father/Mother, Musicians/Athletes, love of X's life.

Some may say "I wasn't ready, it wasn't my time, it was a mistake, a "rendezvous" gone "wrong".

This country, the United States of America needs a revival, and fast.  I dont believe we are a christian nation anymore, we practice immorality; how far we have moved ourselves from God's law.  I dont believe it's right to call this nation quote "Christian" Today, it is not.

Taking innocent unborn children's lives is a crime. Nothing but servicing convenience.  We have an obligation to stand up as Christians.

Sodom and Gomorrah mirrors the sexual deviance, the worldliness, the outright denial of our God.  MATTHEW 24:27 "For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man."


Surely we are near that hour.

To Claire Westbrook

I do hope you are the one, and I realize now how much i like you; only to fall and miss you makes me understand how beautiful of a girl you are, on the inside is the most amazing heart i've ever known.  I messed up in not being sensitive, if I lost you....then i pray that God puts the right person in your life but i hope that person is me.

Set to “Romance” composed by John Williams

“Life in meaning”

Time never stops

Though memories bound us like a broken clock

We live off those emotions that never flee

Similar to a rotting building

Different in imagery but existing as the same place

As a setting for immortal memories

Though she has moved on, her memory vivid

Emotions strong like the current in the middle of the Pacific.

So intense to the dreamer,  time ceases.

Yet only to one.

Happy, sad, indifferent are they

Like a field of growing moss/weeds

Existing as life in a field

Indistinguishable in meaning to the perfect gardener

Yet full of meaning to the one who lost their love.

Life is lived

But only if truly lived

To be bound in perfect lines

Is to be structured behind bars of a prison

At the moment you know she is the one

Never let that moment die.

As you will become happy only in memory

Live by faith

Live by love

Never settle for comfort

Do not be afraid to fail, for failing is trying.

Always long for love and true meaning

If she doesn’t see discipline and who you are

Let her go, and figure it out.

A purpose not a need

And in time, memories will fade

To open up a new love and caption.  – Aaron Browning

Matthew 7:1 and the importance of the word of God.

Matthew 7:1, ‘”Judge not, that ye be not judged.”

1 Corinthians 4:5 (King James Version)

 ⁵Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

I preface  my first blog by admitting that I too am a sinner. I have fallen into temptation like every other man of God; through lust to battles with the world, yet I continue to be amazed by God's mercy & forever comforting spirit. Through my repentance and focus on God a renewed mind is the prize of a child of God. Through Jesus you will come to know more than the world has ever been able to create, a peace that surpasses any temporary pleasure provided on Earth. Look up at the stars tonight, study Astronomy for a few semesters; space never ends....and neither does God's power.  Not fame, not money, not status, not friendship, not family, not anything that you seek will fill the void of our God. Trust in that statement....

Hebrews 6:14

 Nothing is hidden from our God, and while it is true we will be called to account for everything both in sight and hidden from man, our father knows everything. We should fear God, but we should also know that he loves us and understands every piece of emotion we are going though.

 ¹³Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

The word of God is the fuel to the spirit of God who lives through us in Jesus. The love upon the cross, we will follow; and offer this life forever to see the lord in full. When you can look at someone in sin and love them, you know you are saved by God. When you see that marriage is suppose to be a beautiful harmony that helps us through this life and understand the respect you give either your present or future wife by turning from lust, you are saved. When you weep for the lost, and despise wickedness; my brother you are saved. Do not embrace your own knowledge as sufficient for all knowing but trust in the creator, our God who has made every living, breathing, and distant thing known to our eyes or minds. 

Matthew 6:24

²⁴No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. (money).

1 Corinthians 2:12 

 ¹²Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

Per Matthew 7:1

We must read the entire scripture to understand 7:1 and Matthew's warning to man.  As believers are told by God and our Lord to “judge one’s actions to be able to rebuke & encourage the true word of God (Timothy 4:2).  So where are we going wrong with this scripture? The answer; in many similar ways.

We see rappers who influence the young with lustful lyrics, politicians with hypocritical falls, ultimately we see sin in every aspect of our culture, especially a godless media.

Now the truth is again that we are all sinners, so it would be aggressive and incorrect to tell someone they are destined for an eternity in hell by one action; but fruitful to warn them that what they are doing is in fact sinful and a pathway to hell. God rose up and commanded the same men yesterday as he is calling right NOW in this day in age; we are waiting for the Moses, Aaron, Matthew, St. Timothy, Ezekial, Isiah's of today's age.  

Matthew 7:1 needs to be understood in perspective and not as an itemized scripture to justify a certain sinful nature or as a defense for any judgement. The truth is, man interprets this scripture as if real believers  are incapable of recognizing sin and thus rebuking it. Woe man, GOD sent the same prophets & disciples in the bible  with his spirit that he is soon to do in this country, and like water to our bodies the spirit of God hasn't changed today. The same spirit that flows through us, poured through Moses; and we will see a revival soon in this country to break down the soft spokeness of Christianity seen in todays church. In a day in age that rebukes God through media, we must break people down; and preach the word of God; with a real message that both the prophecy and meaning of God's word is alive and well, with the fall of man today we must be wise.

I hope that you found this blog enlightening. I will continue to expound on certain scriptures and leave you with today's song.

Hillsong United " Search my Heart" 

I leave you with two scriptures that flow with the theme of focusing on God and living with his spirit to avoid sin and truly i tell you LIVE! When you live for the one who created you, and everything who else will know better what you need in this life!

1 John 2: 1-29

My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world. And by this we know that we have come to know him, if we keep his commandments. Whoever says “I know him” but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him, but whoever keeps his word, in him truly the love of God is perfected. By this we may know that we are in him: .
