Me Too

So I am inspired by John Piper and Mark Driscoll today.

John wrote: "Now what about Twitter? I find Twitter to be a kind of taunt: “Okay, truth-lover, see what you can do with 140 characters! You say your mission is to spread a passion for the supremacy of God in all things! Well, this is one of those ‘all things.’ Can you magnify Christ with this thimble-full of letters?”
To which I respond:
The sovereign Lord of the earth and skyPuts camels through a needle’s eye.And if his wisdom see it mete,He will put worlds inside a tweet.
So I am not inclined to tweet that at 10AM the cat pulled the curtains down. But it might remind me that the Lion of Judah will roll up the heavens like a garment, and blow out the sun like a candle, because he just turned the light on. That tweet might distract someone from pornography and make them look up.
I’ve been tweeting anonymously for a month mainly to test its spiritual and family effects on me. In spite of all the dangers, it seems like a risk worth taking. “All things were created through Christ and for Christ” (Colossians 1:16). The world does not know it, but that is why Twitter exists and that’s why I Tweet.
By his grace and for his glory,
Pastor John"

Mark said: "Guys can Change"

Before I listened to that though, I listened to Mark rebuke me with his Marriage and Men talk. I have also been reading through Hosea.

The inside of me has been all turned up over my sin. But I am finding great encouragement in John and Mark's encouragement that God's grace can change us.

I talked to my friend Jerrod last night, what an ear for the Lord he has. He very casually told me about what the Lord has been putting on his heart. Hearing that was so awesome because I see and heard a man being radically transformed by the Holy Spirit. He is putting the work in and listening to the Lord, embracing truth and receiving grace.

I want that too.
