...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.

Who the h#ll are you?

I've met many folks who say they believe in Jesus but when asked "who  "who is Jesus" they really don't have an answer.

Some  say Jesus is God's son, others say Jesus was not God but a perfect man, others say Jesus was a great teacher and still others say he was a  prophet.

Siri in my iPhone tells me that "her policy is separation of spirit and silicon"

Jesus forces us to think. Dang it, that's not fair!

Let's see then. Jesus forgave sins, something only God could do (see Mark 2:6,7 and Luke5:21). He raised people from the dead (see Mark 5:22-43 and Luke 7:11-14). He made a blind person see who never had sight (John 9:1-12). He cleansed folks with leprosy (see Luke 17:11-19 and 2 Kings 5:1-19 to blow your mind a bit)

Perfect, moralistic people just can't do this stuff. Prophets can't do this stuff (honest, they said so!)

So Jesus must be something else. Some folks say Jesus was lower than an angel but angels can't do this stuff.

The churchie people asked him where his power to do this from. So Jesus set them up...

"where was John's power from?".  So the churchie people freaked. "If we say God, were busted. If we say man, the people will bust us"...so they simply said "we don't know"

Where can this power come from? Satan? Nope, he would have been fighting himself (see Matthew 12:21-30).

So they lost out because they couldn't commit. What about you? Who do you say he is?

Jesus' power comes from God...and w
