I love this commercial.

The Man Your Man Could Smell Like

If only it were actually like this.  If only you could apply something as simple as deodorant and turn into someone else completely.  But we know... life isn't like that.  If you want to change yourself, improve yourself... it takes hard work.  Wanna lose weight? You gotta eat right and exercise.  Wanna go to a great college?  You have to study while everyone else is playing.  Wanna have great family relationships later on?  Then you have to honor your parents right now.  Wanna have great marriages later on?  Then you need to guard yourself and your heart right now while everyone else is dating and doing whatever they please.

The point is... live like no one else now... so you can live like no one else later.

LENT

Lent starts today... Ash Wednesday.  Have you thought about what you're going to give up for Lent?  I haven't figured it out yet.  Too many things I want to give up... and yet can't live without.

And that's a shame.  Jesus is asking to spend a little bit more time with me. He wants me to give up something so I can use that time to spend with him instead.  And all I'm thinking about is how much I can't live without those things... but how much more can I live without him?

What in your life is getting in the way of spending time reading the Word and praying? What in your life is getting in the way of forming a tighter relationship with your Savior?  What in the world is MORE worth it?

As we think about what we want to give up... I hope it reveals the true state of our relationship with Jesus... and the love for our Savior.

Where do you stand?  What will you give up?

Website Update

Whew.  It takes a lot to update a whole entire website.  But a little bit at a time... that's what matters.

I just wanted to take a second to really explore the notion of character and how it applies to our everyday life.  Character is EVERYTHING.  You will rise and fall based on your character.  So even in the darkest corners of your life... where you think no one's watching... no one is looking... that's when your character means the most.  Because even if you think no one's watching... God is patiently observing us.  Will we be patient?  Will we be loving?  Will we take the high road?  Can we be accountable when it seems like no one cares or it doesn't matter?  Can we keep our emotions in check?

Character is EVERYTHING.  On Facebook, on MySpace, in emails, in texts... in phone conversations.

What kind of character are you building?  As a young man or woman... the actions you take now shape your character forever.  That's a big deal.  People who live with regrets right now... people in prison... people living with guilt... they didn't intend on growing up and ending where they were.  They didn't grow up wanting to be criminals, wanting to be on the wrong side of the law.  But they compromise a little here... and then compromised a little there... and before they knew it, they threw their character away.

1 Timothy 4:12 - "... But set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith, and in purity."
