God will judge! When we have been mistreated by someone Friend or Foe there is a certain response that we must use. They are laid out in Scripture commands ,guidelines, standards, morals, and principles we are two respond to them. We have a tendency to think because we are the victims that we can respond or react anyway that we want but God wants us to respond according to these commands principles and guidelines if we don't we are no better than the moral perpetrators and in his sight we are no better than the perpetrator he will judge us according to our response to miss mistreatment we must have faith in him that he will take care of the perpetrators vengeance is mine I will repay said the Lord. When we become vindictive and retaliate then we are no better than the perpetrator and that is how he will judge us that's why he says love your enemies thank you and have a good day.

9/12 - Barna, research group, this group does research in the spiritual and moral areas including prayer ,church attendance, Bible reading and involvement in religious activity. before the terrorist attack right after 9 1101 there was a great spike in all measurements, 6 months later it was right back where they were before 9/11 there is nothing new here: because Israel when they come out of Egypt they sing and dance and celebrated their freedom, 3 days later they would gripe and complain Exodus chapter 15 verse 22. there was Mount Sinai they came to get the law from God, 40 Days Later there was a golden calf, adultery, nakedness Exodus chapter 32 verse 1, then there was Palm Sunday they would Palm the pathway and cry Hosanna, 7 days later they cried crucify him crucify him, there was the food in the wilderness God provided manna Exodus chapter 16 they wanted Quail Numbers chapter 11 verse 31 then there was the time when they were released from captivity out of Babylon to rebuild the Temple, they build houses plants Gardens but they forgot to build the temple hanggai 1: 2- 11 Ezra 5:1 and there was 15 years with no progress seven religious behaviors were study to assess the impact of the 9/11 events. the surge in church attendance has been widely reported and while current levels of adult attendance or higher than before the attack, they are not statistically different than the numbers recorded last November thus reflecting the usual seasonal increase it appears that attendance which Nationwide increased by perhaps 25% immediately after the attack is back at normal levels the November survey found 48% of adults attending on a typical weekend yes tragedies and atrocities can bring us closer together but it is usually temporary food for thought

Whose job is it? This is a story about 4 people named everybody, Somebody, anybody and nobody there was an important job to be done and everybody was sure somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was everybody's job. Everybody thought anybody could do it but nobody realize that everybody wouldn't do it, it ended up that everybody blamed somebody when nobody did what anybody could have done.

Lately I have focused on religion and entertainment, somehow in our society there is some confusion today let's focus on praise. Some contend to praise God is to raise your hands shout hallelujah or praise God, but the real meaning of praise is how one lives his life towards God that is a life of praise and it shows by your conduct and behavior that you praise God. Some contend that you go to church and you shout and praise God, but there are very few people that see that but there are the masses that see how you live your everyday life and that is why God set it up that way. We must accept God's design and way of a praising him then using our own tradition yes we do praise God when we go to church or worship but which is most effective in teaching others about Christ how we conduct ourselves at church or how we conduct Our Lives everyday just food for thought thank you!
