Hello everybody! It’s been a long time. Google has a new friends follow gadget that I was able to incorporate into this site. So….if you would like to follow me….you could…if you would like to. You can find it in the sidebar.
The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment. – Proverbs 12:19
In my devotion this morning, I ran across that verse. It stuck out to me like a orange, red and pink skier on the slopes.
My first thought from this verse was that our words are like unto a huge red wood tree. Each time you tell the truth, it adds to this mountain of a tree that will last until eternity. But each time we lie, or just kid around, a little worthless branch sprouts out from the tree and then quickly dwindles away. Foolish kidding around and lying amounts to nothing good, but the truth from our mouths shall be established forever!
That really stuck out to me because I have to admit that I have a problem with spewing out worthless lies (Joking) that would be better kept from my mouth. Although there is nothing wrong with having a good time, we still must be careful to guard our mouths.
There are many applications you could use this verse for, and many analogies you could draw. For example, telling truth builds the foundation of a building.
Let me hear some ideas from you.
The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy. There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight. – Proverbs 12:19-22

Because you don’t hear a lot about Paul Washer in many Christian circles, you would think that he believes something crazy. But I haven’t heard anything come out of his mouth that would be contrary to the Scripture. So, for now, I really love hearing the teaching from this man. As Paul the apostle said, follow me as I follow Christ.
I just wanted to let you all who didn’t know, know that my last post was in response to my friends saying that I act to grown up and boring on the web. They wanted me to lighten up, and show my true youth! They thought that all of my political work has turned me into a boring politician. Thanks a lot friends! …lol… Although I am partially kidding, I agree with all of the things I just said. Oh well. Thanks for being there FRIENDS, ~ Andrew
I’m an Alumnus of a program called Journey to the Heart. I would describe The Journey as a refreshing, life changing, spiritual bath. A place where you can put aside all the distractions of the world and really meet with God. It’s like a vacation with Jesus. (Highly, HIGHLY Recommended)
Living the Journey is challenging people to start off 2009 memorizing Scripture. I have decided to join them in memorizing 2 Timothy 2:1-26. (The whole chapter)
Yesterday I memorized verse one: “Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.” In this verse Paul starts out saying: You therefore. The word therefore means Paul is referring to something that he mentioned previously. So, I went back and read some of chapter one and found that Paul had been talking about persecution and suffering. So, this was Paul telling very young Timothy, to be strong in God’s grace even in the bad times.
“Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;” – 2 Tim 1:8
Today, I am memorizing the verse two: “And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.”
If anybody hasn’t heard of www.BacktotheConstitution.org, I would like to invite all my Make it Countreaders to join the Back to the Constitution Coalition. There are many things in life that we can make an impact. Politics is one of the many things that Christians can be an example and light for this dark world. Let’s shine the light in the political world and raise the standard of Godliness for the Christian officials. Let’s bring the Country back to Prayer, Repentance, Salvation and the Bible. Let’s bring the country back to our forefather’s original mission and protect the values of the Constitution. Let’s use our voice to protect the voiceless unborn children.
