I Pray We Get Uncomfortable....

I pray we become uncomfortable with doing business as usual.  I pray we get bored with doing the same ole' thing year in and year out with no attempt to evangelizing to the lost.

May we get uncomfortable with seeing people out on the street begging for money and asking if they can work for food to eat.  I pray we get uncomfortable with solely fellow-shipping with one another at the expense of being light and salt to others.  Lord help us to become uncomfortable.

I pray we get so uncomfortable with the purchasing of new vehicles, saying the Lord blessed us without touching and meeting the needs of others.  I pray we get uncomfortable with judging and condemning others without knowing their full story.

I pray we become uncomfortable and begin loving the unlovable....Lord please help us to get uncomfortable with young girls having babies, babies killing babies....young girls walking along the train tracks seeking out Johns and Lord help us be uncomfortable with the woman using the perfume samples in the pharmacy to freshen herself up from being out in those streets.....Lord, we must needs to get uncomfortable....  It's time for us to respond to the issues you have allowed our eyes to see......

Lord help us to get uncomfortable with the selfies, taking pictures of everything that does not reflect ministry modeled by our Savior (I'm talking to me too!)

Lord help us to get uncomfortable with wanting to have all the benefits but no relationship.  Lord helps us, we need to get uncomfortable......

Lord help us please to get uncomfortable with not being compassionate, and intentional about our efforts to make a difference in someone else's life ......
Lord, I pray for the day when we become uncomfortable rather sooner than later.
Lord, I pray that you help us to become uncomfortable TODAY in Jesus' name!

Today, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season. The lenten season is observed to better appreciate the death, and resurrection of Christ through self-examination, repentance, prayer, fasting, and self-denial. In addition, Ash Wednesday has another significant meaning for me. It was on this day, Ash Wednesday that the Lord brought me out of my induced coma in 2000, March 8th to be exact. Prior to that, I could only recall seeing my brother the night of the fire  in January who accompanied me in the ambulance while being transported to what was then called UMDNJ in Newark, NJ. On that Ash Wednesday, I can remember seeing both my grandmother and my mommy sitting in my hospital room. Grandma holding a can of Pepsi, and mommy doing something with my feet, lol. Probably clipping my toe nails. There is also that taste of chicken broth or soup I will never forget fed to me intravenously along with other fluids to sustain me while I was in a coma. Its been 16 years fr...

I heard it said once that people don't evangelize because they are too concerned about their finances. Instead of concerning ourselves with our finances, we need to make our trust in God a priority. Outside of God we will never have enough or be satisfied: therefore, we ought to totally rely upon the strength of God who is our Source and promised that we would not go without lack nor seed begging for bread. I've tried God at His word. There was a time I needed $500 and God laid me on the heart of someone and said, "God laid you on my heart to be a blessing to." The "things" we spend time worrying about that would potentially take our minds off of doing the work of God, God is already working that situation out for you. You just have to trust Him and continue in the work while you wait for Him to fulfill that which He promised. Now, if you haven't accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior then these promises do not apply to you but are available because Jes...
