TURNING POINT

HE SAID HE HAD TO FACE REALITY

AND IT TOOK MONTHS TO GATHER THE COURAGE TO SPEAK.

THAT WE WERE A BLESSED PEOPLE

YET WE HAD BECOME COMPLACENT



WE ARE WITH GOOD POSITIONS

EDUCATED AND ENJOYING A COMFORTABLE LIFESTYLE

OUR HOMES HAD SEVERAL CARS

HANDPHONES

AND MANY TYPES OF ENTERTAINMENT



AND WE HAD BECOME INDIFFERENT

AND OUR HEARTS HAD BEEN HARDENED



I SENSED THE PAIN IN HIM

AS HE SAID WHAT NEEDED TO BE SAID



JESUS REBUKED THOSE WHOM HE LOVED



THE GOOD CAN BE THE ENEMY OF THE BEST

THE BEST IS YET TO COME

BUT IF WE ARE SATISFIED WITH THE GOOD

THEN THE BEST WILL NEVER COME.

THIS IS COMPLACENCY

( YES I SAW THE TREASURE AROUND US

BUT THEY WERE HIDDEN

AND NOT EMPOWERING US

TOWARDS OUR MISSION )


WHATEVER YOU FOCUS YOUR HEART ON

YOU BEGIN TO BE SENSITIVE TO.

WHATEVER YOU NEGLECT,

YOUR HEART BEGINS TO HARDEN TOWARDS.

WHEN YOUR HEART IS INSENSITIVE AND UNYIELDING

YOU HAVE A HARDENED HEART.

YOU HEART DETERMINES WHERE

YOUR LIFE IS GOING.



I WROTE A SONG...IT WAS LIKE JESUS WAS SPEAKING TO ME.

SO I JUST WROTE ON THE BACK OF MY CHRISTIAN EDUCATION BOOK.

AND I WROTE...

I AM HE THAT CALLS YOU

I AM HE THAT SENDS YOU

LEAVE YOUR FEAR

TAKE MY HAND

DON'T BE AFRAID

TO TELL THEM WHAT I TOLD YOU



THEN

THE FEAR WAS GONE

AND I WILL NOT BE AFRAID TO TELL THEM

WHAT JESUS TOLD ME



THERE ARE OTHER SHEEP

NOT OF THIS FLOCK

I WILL CALL THEM TOO

AND THERE WILL BE

ONE FLOCK

ONE SHEPHERD
