Matthew 13:30 - Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.
I was SAVED in 1979. At that time I loved The PTL Club - I watched it a lot. There was music, talks and praying...all the elements of a good ministry. But, the Bakers allowed themselves to get caught up in excess and it all came crashing down. The same thing happened to Jimmy Swaggart some time later.
It is good to follow ministry, but the probability that something may cause one to fall is always a reality. Even my Catholic Church has dealt with horrible acts that could have destroyed it, but it still stands as the benchmark of the Christian faith. This is God's will for now.
I love sharing good things from many churches and it gives me great joy to do it. I love discovering different levels of faith and sharing them. It is so exciting to me to learn about Jesus Christ.
I will continue to do this because it is my need and passion. I am actually sharing what it takes to fuel my spirit each day. Some days it is more but it is one thing - constant. We must walk our steps each day to reach the goal. That goal is our place with the Lord.
I love you, my brothers and sisters, and I will try to be a good source for you to share and learn with. It is a beautiful world we live in but it has its quirks. I do what I can to share the Good News.
Always.
