Someone asked me about my “My Church page” they wanted to know why the Madea movies were there. They wanted to know why some of my music wasn’t gospel. And why the books I chose were those books. The primary reason those things are on my page is because to some degree they are part of who I am. Secondly, I’m not ashamed of what’s on my page. There is no Spiritual life and real life, it’s all a reflection of my spirit man, weaknesses and strengths. Just the fact that they asked made me want to “Check for Change”. Check it out and see what or if I need to change some things. Not to impress men but to see if my ways are pleasing the Lord. So I’ve been asking myself, what does my lifestyle say about me? What do my conversations and actions say about me? Is what I speak in my silence greater than the volume of my words? Are my words clear and concise? Am I being sincere or am I just appeasing? What needs to change? Who do I access and who do I allow access to me? What does your life or page say about you? You may not care what others think of your life, maybe your pleased as Ice Cream about it. But is God pleased? Does it reflect the new man or woman that you are in Christ Jesus? Would the people who access your “Page” know you as the same person who is on your “My Church” page?.

If by chance we came across your My Space or Face Book Page, would you feel the need to explain or defend yourself? [smile]  I’m a Mother of 3 and I know my son and daughters don’t tell me everything and I can be fooled. I’m asking them to ask themselves the same questions. We may fool people, but we’re never fooling Holy Spirit. And what Holy Spirit causes to grow, changes for the better. He reads our text, sees our pages, hears our two-way, and knows our codes. He is the Discernerof hearts and can even discern our many “Spiritual” Words and Motives. Even our need to pray for someone AFTER we spill all the dirty details. And He knows, that the only one, you’ve fooled into believing you have a spiritual life and a real life…is you. He wants to help us come up higher in our daily living. Your truly greatest testimony must first be to you then to others. Remember, God is never deceived. And He doesn’t want us to be deceived by others or OURSELVES. If we’re still doing the things we did before we accepted Jesus as our SAVIOR, we’ve been standing still. What do we do from here? We make Jesus LORD, by allowing Him to “Check and Change” our lives. I hope you’ll join me this week for a personal “Check and Change“. You’ll know your “Pages” are right when you can invite Pastor to be your friend. [smile!]
