Put me where you want me Father

Lord Jesus I ask you too put me where you think I should be. Lead me to the person who needs prayer and is ready to hear the greatest message they will ever hear. Lead me to those who need to be healed, so that I may lay my hands on them and be used as a vessel for your healing powers. Thank you for all the gifts you have given me, thank you Father for keeping me alive even when I was working against you. Keep my faith strong and Satan out of my way, for all things are possible through you Risen Lord.

I feel like I'm doing the right thing

I have attended a few CODA and RA(rageaholics) meetings recently. This is not my first attempt at a 12 step program. This is the first time that I made a moral inventory and a list of people I have harmed. I have made amends too one person so far; while it did not go exactly as planned I'm still excited about my future. I'm so happy to have the Risen Lord as my higher power, he will give me all I ever ask for and more that I don't even need. I have been reading the moral inventory on a regular basis. It's nice to be able to stop in the middle of thought and realize this is some of the behavior that I shouldn't be doing. The Lord has done so many wondrous things in my life in the last few months, I feel so Loved and lucky. 

On sad news my Aunt Donna Hamilton had a mini stroke recently and has lost some feeling in her hand amongst other things. She has been a shining beacon for me in my pursuit of Christ. All prayers for her would be appreciated. 

Peace be with you all, please email me for any prayer requests

Moving our Church

Last night the congregation at Ecclesia celebrated the years we spent at the Pacific Theater in Hollywood. After a great tribute to the years there; we lowered the cross that had been with us since the begining and carried it too the new church. I think we all know what it means to pick up our cross and follow the Lord a little better.

Check out this really funny video our church filmed for the cross over to the new church.

The five of us had the great oppurtunity to carry our churches cross the .8 mile down to the Hollywood Adventist church where we will start having service on July 7th. I'm the 2nd from the right.

Peace be with you brothers and sisters in Christ.

Getting ready for the big Church move

This Sunday will be the 2nd to last Ecclesia's service at it's old Pacific theatre location. We are only moving about a mile away, to Hollywood's big 7th Day Adventist church next to the 101. I'll miss the Church, it's the first place in Los Angeles I have felt the touch of the Holy Spirit. I have faith though that the Lord is going to move his flock to bigger and better things. The cool thing is now we will now have 3 services on Sunday, including a 5pm service. Sunday night will be an amazing saying goodbye to the old theatre service, looking forward to what happens. Sunday July 7th will be the first service in the new location.  Prayer brothers and sisters of Christ and peace be with you.

The Holy Spirit

For such a long time all I've ever done is ask the Lord for forgiveness, nothing more nothing less. I realized this last weekend that I should have been asking to be over filled with the Holy Spirit when I was doing all these things that I need to be forgiven for. I went to my first ever rageaholic anonymous meeting on Monday. I'm usually a pretty laid back guy but there are times where I get very anxious and throw a tantrum because of traffic or something else silly. So I'm hoping to work on that so I will quit adding chaos to the world. Thank you for all the prayers I can feel the Lord working inside me. Peace be with you brothers and sisters in Christ

Pray for my church

Every Wednesday at noon the flock our our church pray for a new location. We are out of our current location at the end of June. We start our first service at a 7th Day Adventist church about a mile away July 7th. We are praying that the Lord finds us a new location so that we will have a permanent home. Please any prayers would help. Peace be with you brothers and sisters in Christ!

Please Lord take away my shortcomings

I am a very weak person. I constantly go against the followings and the great gift our Risen Lord has offered to all of us. It's so strange to think beyond where we currently are in life. I don't mean in the sense of growing old and getting new jobs and children and those life issues. I can't see this point where I die and then meet our Lord. It reminds me of when Jesus refers to his Father's return and says that even he does not know on what day that will be. I have felt for a while now that If I were to expire any time soon I would be judged by our Father and thrown in too eternal suffering. I have found it is easy to put these thoughts out of my head when I am really trying to get laid. I have been abstinent for only a few days and I want so badly to go watch porn on my I Pad in the bathroom. I have let the enemy into my mind and he has corrupted me. It's strange how long I have worshiped God while really being loyal to the serpent. I ask our Lord to take my shortcomings and anything else that prevents me from being over filled by the Holy Spirit on a daily basis.
Take my explosive anger, take my devious plotting, take my lust for my fellow sisters in Christ, take my sarcastic wit and the sting it leaves on others, take my gluttonous need to constantly fill my body with poison and take the lazy life style I have grown accustomed too. With your light and love Lord all of this is possible. Please Lord direct me to those I can serve and to those who will not lead me astray. I have nothing but dust with out you Lord, thank you again!
