My Bucket List

My bucket list:

1. Impact the world for the sake of Christ's Kingdom.

That is all :)

     You know people write bucket lists or make huge plans and then feel let down when things don't work out the way they want.  I'm just as guilty of that as anyone.  But it's time to make a stand. To take captive the desires of your heart that are focused anywhere but on the Lord.  For what are those things but sins which cloud your vision and judgment. 
   
     If I never sky dive or bungie jump. If I never travel the world or climb the tallest mountain.  If I never do any of the things the "average person" might place on a bucket list, but I make an impact on peoples lives that is for The Kingdom, I've fulfilled my bucket list.
 
     We were placed on this earth to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.  What better way to glorify Him than to allow Him to work in another person's life through you?!? And what better way to enjoy him than seeing His handy work with your own eyes.

     Brothers and sisters in Christ, I urge you to take a look at your lives.  I don't just mean a glance, a quick once over and done.  No, I mean a good hard look.  A look that needs to be taken often. Are you living for His Kingdom or your own?  Are you honoring Him, glorifying Him and enjoying Him in all you do?  If not, He's waiting.  Waiting for you to run to Him with a humble heart and say, " Lord, I messed up. Please forgive me and help me to do Your will.  Lord, take my life, every aspect, and show me how to live for You."   If we ask for forgiveness, He says He will grant it! What a wonderful God!  Stay strong in the fight my friends, get lost in prayer and His word, and never let the devil make you feel like you're alone in any circumstance.  Even if you think no one on earth could possibly be going through what you are, Christ knows, and He is ALWAYS there. God is so good, all the time!
To His Glory Alone,
