The Relevant Disciple

If you have not heard by now, Ms. California lost the opportunity to be Miss USA because of her stance for the gospel. I am proud to call her a sister in Christ. She was asked if she thought that Gay Marriage should be legalized and she said that she believed in what the Bible teaches about marriage and that Jesus Christ is her personal Lord and Savior. Wow!!!!!! What a stand. If more Christians would do that then we would not be in the mess we are in. I am proud of those who take stands for Christ in the media. She has been bashed and ridiculed by the left and the media and she has stood firm. As we move as a nation away from our Christian values and heritage we will continue to see other Christians attacked for their faith. We must pray for them and support them.

I am also proud of one my youth. She took a stand last night at "The Revolution." That is our Wednesday night youth meeting. She read a something that she had written about her journey the last year. It was real and honest and the impact it made on me was great. She stood before her peers and shared her heart. I believe that it made an impact on some. I am proud of her and others who are taking a stand within our group. We have many that are willing to be vocal leaders. People who in the past stood to the back and just watched. It is amazing to see what happens when we allow the Holy Spirit to lead.

God is blessing our group and we are fighting through somethings right now. I know that Satan is on the prowl ready to destroy what God is doing. I can feel his temptations in my life and I have fallen for short periods but God continues to pick me up and continues to encourage me. Jesus Christ is my Redeemer and I am thankful to Him who has done more than I can even speak. I ask that you joy the fight for Christ and that you take your walk with Christ serious. God bless my friends.
