Sowing Generously

2 Corinthians 9:6-12

6Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. 7Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 8And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. 9As it is written: "He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever."[a] 10Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. 11You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.
12This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of God's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God

Just some food for thought for some people out there that don't know why they're having financial trouble, having a hard time making payments or a hard time putting food on the table. Well you may say "How can i give? If I even give what little I have, I won't be able to put food on the table?" Or "If I actually had something to give like a rich man, then I will give." See there is the problem in your philosophy of thinking. And I say to you, IF you can't give from the little you have, how do you expect God to give you more and you give from that? I know in my life alone I have story after story where God reached out and helped me and in my family, well, that would take a lot of logs to write about all those instances. My friends, i'm not sure what to tell you but step out in faith, trust in God, and he will not, HE WILL NOT let you down. You will be surprised at how God can mulitiply the little that you have to have plenty and some. For those that are well off, I tell you, use this principles and you will see your wealth, buisness, your happiness grow. I know i've applied this to my buisness and I have not seen things go smoother in any other project we've done. And I know it's because we've dedicated our buisness and what we do to God. May God bless you and bless you more abundantly!

Kiss American Girls Good-bye!

My title for this post is correct. I've talked to many girls in my days and to me seems like American girls are very shallow. Too into themselves, too "me" oriented, and very immature. There is something more attractive about girls overseas. They make more sense when they talk and you can actually have great conversations with them. As far as i'm concerned i'm done with American chicks. Overseas chicks here i come! Speaking of which i can't wait to leave for a long time and just be able to chill. Anywho back to the topic at hand. To me and other friends i've spoken with foreign girls have more common sense about things. Especailly about relationships. When you hear them talk about relationships it's like getting a breath of fresh air. They pretty much tell you things up front and like to tell you where they stand. American girls, not so much. Too much bullshit, too many games, and once again... too much bullshit. I'm through with that. IF by some chance i run into some american girl that isn't like this, I, for one, will be shocked, and two, i'll have my doubts. BUT it could be possible. Blah, it's late, i need some sleep. That's all for now.

What is the Reason?

Well guys it's been a long time since i've thought about life and particularly my life. You get so caught up in the daily grind that you totally forget to review your goals in life, why your doing what you are, what was the motion for you to even start what you are doing, and most importantly how are you and God doing? Those questions have been boggling my mind as of late. So i have been thinking about that last question the most and why now, i'm not sure. I know that i'm no where near where i would like to be, not that there is a limit to the closeness of God. You know when you would be sitting in church and they do a alter call? Well, i don't get any emotion or feeling when people respond or people get saved. I remember days when i used to get tears in my eyes and pray while they made the ulter call for those that are recieving christ as their lord and savior. Now, i just clap when everyone else does and call it a day. Seems to me my spunk is gone, my spark, my fuel, my fire, my desire, my passion to know him more and to be know by him. My life has been a jumble of emotions, like today for example, i was angry when i got up. Not sure why? Seemed like anything people said i responded in a rude manner, it wasn't intentional, it just came out like that. So as i realized this i started to think before i spoke. It could be just one of those days, who knows besidesd God. I know that I gotta start putting God back in the focus of my life. When you put him back in the picture, God will take care of the problems, he will supply all your needs, he will protect you from the storm, he will lift you when you fall, he will heal you when your sick, he will give you comfort through the thick times of life. THIS is the God i server, so why have I lost this prospective? I'm not sure? But the prospective is changing, changing slowly, but changing.
