Im a recovering addict who has left behind the scars that bind. I'm glad to say today I serve a living God instead of a God of destruction. I give praise to the Lord above for his grace and I also thank him for a spirit which leads. The Holy Spirit has been such a comforter to me in my time of need.
We all know those times, when you feel like you're going to drown, but somehow the strength of the Lord keeps you up-That's the power of God! CAN I GET AN AMEN!!!!! AMEN! I can't hear youououououou! AMEN!
Im also apart of the ministry He Intends Victory which reaches out to those affected and infected by HIV and AIDS.

Support groups are awesome-but it is the Lord Jesus Christ that does the work/healing in us. Reading/ studying the bible, listening to tunes which glorify God while connecting with others with the same mindset, keeps you focused on what is real (in life).
I heard on a clip somewhere that said-10 out of 10 people die: those are the facts. There isnt anything closer to these odds, but taxes! *LOL*
When we pass from this earth, we are going to have to answer to the one who granted us life...I know what I would love for God to say to me.....And those words I long to hear are, "You have been a faithful servent, Chad. You believed in me and stood up for me when others had the opportunity and didnt. For that, I am grateful."
What would you like the Lord to say to you? What do you think the Lord will say about your minsitry (which we call life)? A ministry isn't just a group of people-but a ministry is how we live and work with eachother. The word of God is the word of God. It's not political-God's truth isn't a political statement. God's word is God's word and what is written is to be told in love. The bible isn't Political and it's not a toy...it's truth.

Proverbs 3:6
Mark 1:40-41
"A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, "If you are willing, you can make me clean."
Filled with compassion, Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. "I am willing," he said. "Be clean!"
This is a verse that stands not just for those who are dealing with a disease, it is a verse for anyone dealing with anything that makes them feel unclean-Jesus can cleanse you from the inside out-Make you new. Jesus, can do that for you...cause he did it for me! AMEN!
A Prayer to Humbly Serve This Maundy Thursday - Your Daily Prayer - March 28
Would you let Jesus wash your feet? Isn't it hard to imagine lifting our dirty toes to the King of Kings? None of us are worthy of his care and attention; yet in Christ's perfect love, he gives us nothing less. Does your human heart struggle like mine to serve others humbly as Jesus did?
