Artificial Faith

So the other night my wife Aimee & I were talking about faith, just faith, just plain straight up faith. Faith in God faith in each other, ect..ect..ect.. But when I really started to chew on it, I believe that a lot of people no longer have faith, because of disappointment's in their life by the whole name it & claim it, which in turn it probably never comes, because, it's just so crazy of what we believe for, or the whole if you live your life "right" good things will happen. Those messages really cheese me off because there are people who do live their life right & they are just going through the fire of life, losing their jobs, families, homes, ect.. People then get disappointed, then ask God I did every thing right & how come this situation still happen to us, why did I lose my house, my job or my family. Now just to let you know that I am all for wealth & for having a good & healthy life, to have the ability to create jobs, to be a blessing, to write checks to churches that have a vision to help people, but in overall thinking about this I wonder if we look to God as a sugar daddy instead of Lord. God... If you scratch my back I will scratch yours.. I know that I shouldn't of bought this house that I couldn't afford, but I thought you want me to have these things? You know God does but it's all in timing of when, when we learned how to handle & to manage of what we already have, because then He will trust us with much more.

Today.

Wow!! I have a blog, which I am truly excited about I guess it's like a journal but people can read it and it will help me with my typing :) Anyway, our life has been interesting, Between the business and my wife not becoming pregnant because, I no longer create testosterone, life for us has been interesting. What comes to me in all of this is that God has something great in store for us
because if you really think about it, how can we minister to people that are hurting if do not go through it ourselves, didn't Jesus sit where the people sat themselves and have compassion for them? I know that He did.. Looking at this whole situation of our life & the struggles makes me very excited for ministry of some sort.. You know Aimee & I have a huge heart to see couples to become successful in their marriages, from money to communication, but I also have a heart for men to pull through for their families when especially when thing get hard, to many men throw in the towel when it gets hard, I know that a major part of those decisions is disappointment, they no longer have an adventure to live for except for paying the car note, bills & a mortgage, the light goes out in their eyes & the dream that they once had dies in their heart and they feel that they have nothing left.. & really a majority of that fault is religion to make men become more sensitive and it's killing them.. Jesus had a huge balance of being kind but to also the ability to fight back & to win, & as men that is what we need to do when things get hard we need to fight back!! I feel a preacher coming out of me!! I kinda like it.
