Faith

Its been a while since I posted something on here. I am going to try to get some on here once every 2 weeks.

I am a point in my life right now where I am scared to death about not know the future in the next couple of months. I mean its a fear that just makes me wanna vomit. Have you felt like that before?
This thing we call life is really starting to scare me. I have gotten in contact with a few friends over that last couple of months via facebook. As I read there life I almost get the feeling some of them the feel the same way I do. I almost wish I could go back in time and just go back to High School. No worries, just wake up and go hang out with friends all day. We didnt have to worry about paying bills or other things that life brings to us. Test never scared me more than life does.

Now on the flip side of all that. The word is FAITH. Somepeople chose to believe in faith some dont. I have faith that God will provide though all my worries and when its looks like it will all fall apart, God shows up and blesses the mess out of my family. Even though we dont see the future or know what it holds. Man just know that God is working on something that will blow your mind. I just read something on facebook that just hit me hard. And it said

" I'd rather go thru life believing there is a God
& die to find out there isn't,
than to go thru life believing there isn't a God
& die to find out there is."

Now thats faith. But all in all, God is working on something when your worried and cant see it, he is working on something when you feel alone, and he is working on something when you Fear somthing.

I love everybody that i come incontact with, even if we are ememies friends or family. Just have a little faith and God will take you though what he knows you can handle.

Loving Jesus and Living Life.
Matthew Jackson

Passion

When I was in Master's Pastor Timothy always said "Your passion will either make you or break you." Never relize what that meant until this year. Its been 2 years since I been out of Masters. We had a set thing every morning: Woke Up, Went to prayer, Did scripture memory, went to class, and so on. When I graduated from there I will be honest with you I didn't do none of that. Pastor Casey always picked on me about that. Saying "You lost your Master's stuff didn't you." In reality I did. This past year I was in prayer at Westlake Assembly of God and God opened up my eyes. He said "Matt, where did your first love go, where did you leave ME at. You are to worried about who won last nights game or just to busy in your everyday life. Why am I not important to you anymore." As I got up from the floor, crying my eyes out. I repented right there and didnt care who heard me. I then notice that after I left my first love at home or wherever. I began to sin.
In Matt 6:21, Jesus says, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” PASSION...Also let me define passion for you real quick...this kind passion is not just an emotion or feeling.
PASSION- A STRONG, EXTRAVAGANT FONDNESS, ENTHUSIASM, OR DESIRE FOR SOMETHING.
One more scripture from the message and I will leave you alone.
Psalm 42:1 A white-tailed deer drinks from the creek; I want to drink God, deep drafts of God. I am thirsty for God alive!
This is where I want to encourge you. The thing you love most or have more passion than anyone or anything else. Which should be God. Is calling you right now asking those questions. Here is the cool thing, you may leave him, but he is still there.
