Life is truly amazing. God continues to bless us and I’m so thankful. We were in the states for a month from May to June on emergency leave. Dorothy’s mom, Zeny had surgery. All went well. She is fully recovered now. We got to see everyone except my littlest bro Chris. Bummer. My two baby brothers David 33 and Chris 28 are in the Air Force and married. David’s family is his wife Charity and their daughter Haleigh 3 and their son, Matthew 1. Well, almost 1. And Chris’s family is his wife Apryl and their daughters Alaura 3 and Chloe 1.
We have been doing a lot. Dorothy got her own Harley. It’s a new 2006 Sportster 1200Low. Mine is a 05 Sportster 1200Custom. The motorcycle ministry is doing well. We have accomplished a lot. We have been in the relationship building stages over the last four months. We are sponsored through a chapter of the motorcycle ministry in Stuttgart, Germany. We ride up monthly for the meetings. We just got back two weeks ago from central Germany from a biker rally just outside of Kassel. You can see photos on our new ministry site. Check it out: www.militarybikerministry.com or www.militarymotorcycleministry.com . Same site.
Also as a side note, I am developing another site to be a total biker resource guide for Southern Germany. Check it out too: www.kmcbiker.com . It’s not finished of course.
O.k., here’s today’s message:
If you intend to follow Christ you must first make the decision to do so. Then you must head in the right direction. If the things that we do are contrary to the Word of God then we are missing the mark. You need to be headed towards Christ to follow Him.
Following takes precision. You can’t follow someone by turning and going your own direction. The Bible say, Large is the gate, wide is the road that leads to destruction, Small is the gate and narrow is the path that leads to righteousness. Few will enter through it.
Sin, of course is enticing; it’s fun; it’s beautiful, at least to our human eyes and senses. We are of flesh and of spirit. We must deny our flesh for our spirit to prosper.
If you get off course and find yourself going the wrong way, that’s o.k. God allows U-Turns. Ask and receive your forgiveness and stay on the straight and narrow path that God intends for your life. God has amazing things for you..
Well, everyone. God bless you all. I’ll talk more later. Email me with comments or questions at: larryb222@hotmail.com .
See ya,
