Hey, what a great day today I wish I had nothing at all to do except lay around. I was thinking about the process that people go through when they except that they are lost. I mean when mortality sets in and they realize that being lost is what they are. But see the problem with that is that most people really don't think about it. They are so busy or distracted that they are never confronted with the idea that their lifestyle right now will effect the life or the death of times to come.

How should we pray for such people? Well if they only run into the occasional bump in the road of life. When they hit those bumps should we pray that God make them smooth? I think not! If life is so easy that there is no pain or heart ache then they brush them off with,"I can handle anything that comes at me." I think we need to pray that they become miserable. That their bed is hard, that food don't taste good to them and that the existance that they live will only force them to run to God sceeming for help!

Should this be the way we pray for all who need Christ? Some need to hear that God loves them and to know that he can heal the past hurts. There are people that have been so take advantage of that they need to hear this rather than more pain.

What should I do when it comes to my family? I don't want the to hurt like that. I don't want them to be miserable. I guess I would need to tell you that God doesn't want it that way ether. But he would rather them suffer now in this vapor we call a lifespain than to suffer for eternity. Wouldn't you?
