What this life is about?

James 1:27
Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

A Little More Compassion

I don't want this blog to be over spiritual but at the same time I always want to point people to the amazing relationship they can have with Jesus Christ. I say all of that to say that I have a lot to say about stuff that might not be what you are used to hearing from me.

Life has alot of black and white areas. But then, it has a lot of grey areas, too. I have come to realize this over that last couple of months. I am going to deal with some issues in this that have been facing our country in the last couple of months and please know my heart on these thing. Sin is sin... We as the people of God have to be ever viligent to clean sin out of our lives. Not just clean but kill it. This is a lifetime thing. That is where time comes in... Time, is invented for us, the people of God, not those who we shout accusing words to who don't even know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
All this to say, we, as the christian community, need to have a lot more compassion on those who are hurting by the choices they make. I have been in a battle over choosing my feelings or choosing God's way. Now, please know, I am talking about those people
who are under the direction of Holy Spirit and are wrestling with what they know is wrong, which is pretty much all of us. I just have gained a lot of compassion for the person with homosexual feelings and knows it wrong and still battles it. I hope this all makes sense...
