first off, i want to apolized about not updating my blog for a while, i had some writing block.
Esther and I went out on street combat together last night and we found out we are a good minstering team. God place Jason in front of us in an alley and we talk to him for awhile about jesus and he seem very intersted and then we pray in the alley for him if we are supposed to see him again then that would happened and we did see him again to invite him to cell and he said he will come to my cell on tuesday's night. then this morning ,Esther and I were walking to school and we pray with this guy named michael and chris and i bought a pop for michael. later in the day i met henry and we talk to him a little about jesus and give him some money for something to eat. it been a cool 24 hours for me.

revolution
i read this article for this class and it is pretty cool stuff. here some cool quotes and shocking statitics all in american though.
in america, the divorice rates are double, teen suicide rate has tripled, voilent crime has quadrupled, the prison population has quadrupled, the birth rate out of marriage has risen 6 fold. couple living together out of marriage has risen sevenfold.
-decades of self-centered living and wordliness in the church of america. years of compromise and toothless gospel preaching. So true so true
-we need a revolution!
-but this revolution will be different than other revolutions including the revolution that birthed our nation more than 200 year ago, this revolution will not be fought with earthy weapons of destruction , not with guns and knives and bullets and bombs- it will be fought with the message of the gospel, with the love of god , the power of spirit, with radical holiness, with sacrifice , compassion, and courage. it will be jesus's revolution!
-our revolution is fueled by the power of the gospel, and the gospel does the voilence of the forces of hell.
- the gospel is a treat to the kindgom of darkness, the gospel does voilence against the forces of hell. WE MUST RECOVER THE FULLNESS OF THE GOSPEL OF JESUS!!!!! I believe the gospel can change a nation or a community, the church is sum what sugarcoating the gospel
Rathering than seasoning the world like salt and brightening the world like light, we now smell and taste like the world , and its darkness is snuffling out our lamps, Rather than setting captives free by the power of Jesus's blood, many of us are being ensnared and enslaved, making a mockery of that sacred blood. Rather than making disciples of sinners and teaching them the ways of god, many of us are being discipled by them, learning their ways, imiting their lifestyles and conformating to their values.
the divorice rates today among the evanglelical is higher than the divorice rate among the atheists. Now that is scary!!!!
It is time for the church to stand up , wake up , speak up and act up!!!!

listening prayers
for the last three days i been doing listening prayers in my devotion and it is been really cool. thanks doug for showing us to do this sort of prayers.
Saturday morning: ask where jesus was and he was on an island, it look a lot like the island of the movie, "The beach". there was palm trees and different sort of trees surrounding us , deep crystal blue waters and a waterfall coming down a large bank, jesus was there sitting on a blanket fill with different fruits and all sort of different sandwichs. i have a picinic with jesus and i ask what he had for me and he said to rest in him and he give me the mattrew 11:28 come to me all who are weary and carry heavy burdens and i will give you rest. i have a sense of peace and rest all day, it totally rock.
Sunday morning: Jesus was on a cliff and there was zipwire going down toward the water and i was excited to see this cause i was alway want to try this but i was nervous as well. jesus said i am right beside you doing this and i am right behind you. so i went and i could feel the wind blowing in my hair and the excitement of splashing toward the water and jesus was right behind me. he came to me and he said to show how fun and exciting is to hang out with jesus to the kids to our sunday school. i had fun and they all look like they were having fun as well. that was awesome.
this morning: He was in kitchen with a huge dinner table fill with all the food and drinks you can ever think of and dream of. He invited me to have a feast with him and i accepted and we just chill and he just said to me to feast on his promises and feast in his presence this day and invite other to do to the same.

powerful dream last night
i was standing the crowd in the time of the passover and i saw jesus and the guards, the guards were tormenting and beating jesus. the guards came up to me and said 'help him". at first i resisted but i went and help jesus. Jesus could't talk but i could see in his eyes how much love and compassionate and how he is doing this for me. the guards nailed him to the cross but instead of letting me go, they nailed my hands and feets to a cross and raise me next to jesus.
my interpetion: deny yourself daily, take up your cross and follow me.
go to be martyr for my beliefs
Galation 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
Any other thoughts or comment would be much appreciate :D
blessing to you all :D
