The most important lesson I have learned from Jesus in my life is that there is no Gray Area.  You either live fully for God or not.  We have to stop trying to be apart of the World because there are things in it that make us feel good.  Even though we are able to see all the good things we do to help people, when we are living a life that fulfills our desires that are not of God, its wasted.  This may seem extreme, but you know what, Jesus was extreme and our rewards come from him.  When you look at the World, the most hungry for Christ and His salvation are those who never knew him.  It hurts me to watch those who have known him for a long time, and because of that take it for granted and live selfish lives.  I am not calling all to martyrdom or to become missionaries to some remote part of the World, but I am calling out those who believe there is a Gray Area.  I want you to know, in God’s eyes, it just means that you are happy just being saved.  Once you truly choose to put Jesus first, I can tell you there is NOTHING that can come between and your desire to continually honor him.  My past has been wiped clean and my heart is being continually healed.  I will no longer say My God, My God, Why have you Forsaken me? rather I will sing a love song to Jesus.. My God, My God I praise you for Forgiving me!  Amen to a Lord that daily bears our burdens.. Amen
