Challenging word

hey challenging word by jeff today in his blog check it out.

To me this is incredibly convicting. Is it enough to suffer persecution for being a virgin or not drinking or not dropping a f-bomb or any other curse word. Is that real persecution??? Cuz again i suffer this but compared to others around the world that is nothing.

Am I doing enough, no. So extremely convicting post. I love the Bible read it, learn it, love it.

Interesting thing i read the other day really came alive through Matthew Henry's commentary. When building the temple in Exodus

The Basin made for washing was made from the mirrors of the women! How treasured are those items ladies. Imagine the sacrifice to give up your mirror for the cleansing of the priests. Again God requires the best and in this instance it involved those women that were "eminent and exemplary for devotion"

What would you give up for Christ, (believe me completely speaking to myself) is it enough did it hurt when you gave it. Count it a joy and allow God to bless you. Is there a need go and meet it and don't hold back and sit on the bench.

It's time Crosspointe to step up to the plate. Quit sitting in the shadows and running that mouth. Don't sing it bring it.

I'm out.

Definitely an opportunity to look ourselves in the mirror and ask the hard questions.
