It is the desire of my heart that God be Lord of my life. Life’s experiences have killed the old man and God is building a new creation in me. I look forward to experiencing the new man God creates in the old vessel known as Archie via "God Spots".

I liked this. We are to love the world but at the same time not conform to it. But the question is how do you do that?
Happens all the time @ The Source (www.iamthesource.org). Some folks have been so badly hurt and are trained to react with mistrust and hatred. Its about what’s going on with them inside. Sometimes it takes years of just sitting alongside them (almost like sitting sheva) and just being there before they are willing to trust or open up. If you live a life where everyone is out to get you and you must fight to survive constantly, you’re not going to be ready to trust anyone until they show they have no hidden agenda.
Love is patient….desiring all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the Truth. God is love.
