Why are we here? Hey I ask myself that question a lot!
I am Senior Commander at a inner city outreach church.
I deal with street kids, and gang members.
By letting God use me,
. I can change these kids lives around. I have only one other
commander besides myself, and all funding comes out of our pocket.
Why am I doing this?
I was comfortable in my little church, doing what everyone does when they
are comfortable {That is "very little"} Oh I was into soaking up
everything about Jesus. I thought I was a good christian servant.
Then Jesus set me straight. At first I didnt listen. But we know how
persistant Jesus is. I finally had to leave my little comfortable church.
I let God move, I had no plans to be in the Royal Rangers. But through
a larger Church, I was placed where I am today. The calling was there
And I was scared to death. But I followed.
That was the beginning of the most exiting thing to ever happen
to me in my life.
Yes Im A Royal Ranger Commander, A soldier for Christ, Where He
Leads I will Follow. Glory Be TO God!
