Its about HIM!!!!

A group of Christian laymen involved in missionary work approached a small village near an Amish settlement. Seeking a possible convert, they confronted an Amish farmer and asked him, “Brother, are you a Christian?” The farmer thought for a moment and then said, “Wait just a few minutes.” He wrote down a list of names on a tablet and handed it to the lay evangelist. “Here is a list of people who know me best. Please ask them if I am a Christian.” (Taken from “In Living Faith,” by Jimmy Carter)

If I was to ask you for some names of the people that know you the best what would they say about you? Are we living every minute of our day for Him? Are you treating your spouse the way that Jesus treats you? Is your day all about Him? How can I lift Him up today?
I for one have not been the husband that God has called me to be. I have let my wife down and myself. I also have not been the father that God has called me to be. He wants everything to be about Him!!! Not about me or my wants and needs, it is all about Him!!! I have tried to do the right thing by going to church, teaching a class, even went as far as going to Colorado to go to Nazarene Bible Collage, But I missed it. All he wants from me is me. He wants me to give every part of my life to Him.
Its like bringing your friends over to your house for the first time and showing it to them. You show off the living room, the kitchen, the bedrooms and maybe even the bathrooms. The one place you don't show is the closets, laundry room, the garage, the shed!!! The house is like our heart. We tend to give Jesus the majority of the square footage, but there is that one little space that we keep for ourselves. I believe that we must open up all the house to him or nothing at all.
I am not sure what all this means and why i felt lead to share this on this blog, but God is moving!! I am asking for all of your prayers. That I will be the father that God has demanded me to be, the husband that he has called me to be, and to be the leader that he has called me to be. Please share anything that God may lay on your heart!
