Life Once Known

Wow here i am. I keep seeing the progression in every moment I experience each day. It's weird you know, it's scary to think there is only two movements, forwards and backwards. Thats pretty much all we have. But there is one worse than both of these l, a life of being stagnant. Not having perpetual motion. God says that He would rather us be hot or cold, but never Luke warm.   If were to be of that, He would spit us out because of the disgust. I mean we have all experienced  that feeling. 90% of the time we know if we drink something, its gonna be hot or cold but we've all experienced that feeling where we picked up that drink, put it to our mouth, took a sip and either spit it out or gagged. Horrible surprise you know!!! Thats how God feels I believe When we come to Him and proclaim the glory with unclean, unrepented hearts and we leave going right back to what we feel is comfortable (to be in the world). There goes God picking up that enticing cup of juice and puts it to His mouth and spits it out because it's not the taste He was wanting.

I've been readin this book called A Million Miles in a Thousand Years. What I've been reading so far is that a lot of us are living ordinary lives, I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that, what I'm saying is that do you think God has designed you to be ordinary? Now think about it, God Almighty, the most important being that has ever existed, created YOU. He didn't create you just to mosey around the world and "live" life. He made you to be special. That's why He created you only in His sight and no one else's. Kinda like we are His little secret plan to something. He sets us off into the world to do something GREAT. He waits for that moment where He sets us up and even tells us "this is the moment" ... And we just stand there dumbfounded or caught picking our noses or even recognizing the moment and running away from it. God sets us up so perfectly at something we are guaranteed to win and we avoid it just like as though there is a brick wall right in front of us and God calls us to strike through it with His force and we put our heads down like that nervous little boy in his first day of class and walk around the obstacle. I mean really come on now, I know all of us have been through this some point in our lives. If God Himself tells us to do something, why aren't we jumping to the occasion and taking over what He has promised victory in. I know I'm totally guilty of this on more than a handful of times.  This is what I'm learning, we need to be more keen and obedient to what He has to tell us. Writing this, I'm thinking "wow I've been a coward" and I know my God has not created me to be a coward at all. He called me to be a warrior on all occasions. So back to what I was saying about the book. The man in the book, Donald, is having a movie written about his life. And the people helping him create it, keep changing everything about it because it's not what people would want to see in a movie. He starts realizing that his life just wasn't that exciting. I feel the same way a lot. And I know God has called me on multiple occasions to stir up my life, it needs a rise of excitement, the plot needs to be kicked up a notch. I can't recall one point in the Bible where Jesus is plain boring... It just didn't happen. Everything he's done, every word he said kept me reading and reading. I've been intrigued more and more to more in depth with what he is telling me and guiding me to do....
