love your neighbor as your self.

"love your neighbor as your self..."-Jesus (mark 12:31)
I'm reading the Ragamuffin Gospel and God used it to highlight something new about that command in my life. (p.s. Go check the book out and read it you won't regret it)

-If you're to hard, to unforgiving of those you love most its probably because you are to hard, to unforgiving of your self.

-learn to love your self, extend grace to your self because God already did long before you entertained the thought of apologizing.

Back in the Game, the goal is in mind. Lets do this!

After a Summer taking a small break from Ministry to Be still and know that God is God. God's blessed me with a new opportunity to do Youth Ministry, at Celebration Christian Fellowship Clovis. I'm supper excited, a little nervous because i acknowledge the responsibility, but I'm completely confident that God's going to provide and lead me as I get to teach some of His Junior high and High school students.

A solid question for the Day, whats your Big Hope? What do you hope to accomplish in life, Why are you doing the things your doing? Mine is to Know and Love God more, To Share what Jesus bought on the Cross with everyone I can impact and to see everyone I know get at least a taste of real Love, a taste of God.

As far as the youth group It would include all that,and to go and make Disciples like Jesus commaned, To teach them to love God and to love their neighbor like they love their self. To share
the Truth
the Wisdom
the Love
the Freedom
the Joy
the mercy
and the Grace that God so freely and willingly given to me with them
