Thanks for your patience, I am in the process of writing the next entry. I thought I would have it done tonight, but as I write it I am beginning to see this topic I am tackling requires much devotion and care to communicate properly. Stay tuned and pray for me! :D
Enjoy this comic I found :)

Intentions Declared
This is a sinner's effort to grow closer to his one and only savior Jesus Christ.
Why is the Church, today, so lukewarm? Why are we so lukewarm? Can you honestly tell me you are truly hot for God? I know I am not, by the foul language that pours from my mouth to the haughty spirit I display to the Lost in my workplace. And then, there are also the things that should be so simple like, the lack of prayer in my life and reading the Word daily. The most gut wrenching prospect from this confession is the scripture in Revelation 3:15-16
......I have tried to write something "hard hitting" for the past 15 minuets, but I am speechless. This scripture hurts so much, but truth hurts. It divides and conquers. You can either turn to it and follow, or be crushed by it.
So, I ask myself, "How can I fix this?" Well here is the key, we have already been fixed! Ah ha! This is not a condemning, self righteous, "you need to be better" blog. I am acknowledging that I need to get back on the road and continue this journey to perfect sanctification. I want you to join me, not just by reading this blog, but by practicing what Jesus taught us, FOR REAL. How are we going to do this? I believe that a study of who Jesus was is something that can help hold us accountable to His teachings, I want to try and really communicate to the readers who Jesus was, by what scripture tells us.
Some of the resources I will be Bible, music by Rich Mullins, Shane & Shane, and some other sources that will be revealed in there time.

I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So because you are lukewarm , and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.
