iWitness

...God is all around us but we move so fast we miss Him.
I've been in a place for awhile where the Holy Spirit shows me where God is during the ins and outs of everyday life...

I have a couple of kids, an awesome wife, and a trail running dog. Together we are seeking God and letting His love spill out on the broken and forgotten.

I believe God has given me a voice that might speak to you too...join us.

is spray paint a sin?

The other day we had the MDC come to replace our water meter..but they couldn't complete the work because the shut-off valve by the street was broken.

So they left and spray painted the street in front of my house marking the area that had to be fixed. I hate it when workers spray paint the street! I always have...I wish someone could tell me why folks have to mark a temporary repair site with permanent paint!

The work hasn't been done in weeks and whenever I drive home I see this nasty thing in front of my house and wonder "how long?"

That's the same cry of the Saints under the altar in the Throne Room of God. Revelation 6:10 asks "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?"

God's not in a hurry as He wants to bring more in...yet i wonder how many of us see the true atrocities of life around us, the ugly marked ones that are crying out how long? Are you as offended as God is? I drive home wondering how long until they'll fix my house and remove the paint mark in my street...yet how much more does God sit in front of His home waiting to repair the broken and remove the mark of sin?
