Welcome To The Jungle

How fast is too fast? Depends on who you ask. On a state highway 80 is too fast--at least in most states. On the Daytona Speedway, if you go twice that fast you get sent to the pits for not maintaining a "safe" speed. 19X that fast to get a space shuttle off the ground and with the speed it uses to circle the Earth it could finish the Daytona 500 in 100 Seconds!!!
Point is-Depends on who you ask.

Brings me to the real source of this rant. Why are we as Christians always beating each other up, dragging each other down, and otherwise being devisive? The real message of Christ was love. It was and still is all about a Father's love for His children--a Son's love for His Father--and the sacrifice, pain, and humiliation that went along with that love.
Do we all have traditions? Yes-even Word of Faith. Are they all good or all bad? No.
Do we have differences? Yes, but we all have one foundation and one unifying force--Jesus crucified for us--the love of God. We are all His children. This isn't the survival of the fittest. We are all fit. We are made that way because of Him.
However, only those who believe God--use faith-stay faithful will receive the prize.
All of this starts by making sure Jesus is who He says He is and then inviting Him to make a difference in your life.
He loves us so much that He even gacve us this help--"I am giving you a choice today--life and blessings or death and cursings. I'll help you--CHOOSE LIFE!" Isn't that awesome--I always heard of the KISS principle--Keep It Simple Stupid--this keeps it simple. Jesus is life-without Him you are barely surviving.

In the jungle survival is based on choices--choose well and welcome to the jungle! PJ
