Fake Fans.
We all know them. The ones who in 2007 were nowhere to be found, but in 2008 couldn’t stock up on enough Rays gear. I’ve been a Rays fan since 1998. 6 years old. Through the Devil Rays and the “New Era” Rays, I’ve seen it all. I may not recall it all, but I’ve seen it all. And theres nothing I despise more than to see someone wearing a Rays jersy one day, then a...

The good, and the bad.
Lemme begin.
I HATE THE GARBAGE THAT MAKES PEOPLE BACKSLIDE. I’ve seen too many people fall, and too many people fool themselves into thinking they weren’t backsliding. Guys this is the point of a…wait for it…accountability partner. Yeah I whipped it out, because I can. I have at least three people outside of my youth group who I consistently run...

liftedeyes:
it occurred to me today tumblr is a church. the Christians on tumblr post about their struggles and reblog to encourage each other. we reblog scripture and forms of art and music worship that praises God. we follow each other to learn new opinions and we fill our dashboard with fellowship.
a church is a gathering of people and that is what the christian...
I am in shackles
To our Lord Jesus Christ. Paul wrote that.
If so, I’m the happiest, most joyful, thankful, FREEST slave you’ll ever have theta. pleasure of meeting :)
You gotta serve someone, no matter how much you think your above doing so. In fact chances are if you’re to the point where you don’t wanna serve anyone ore reading this and saying you don’t serve anyone, chances are...

So I was thinking about my internal tape recorder, you know, the one everyone hass, and what I really want it to say. And then i just started typing. And this is what I came up with. Honestly, I’m not even going to rhyme it. I’m just going to speak it out over a beat, just so I have it recorded.
I am a child of God
I can step boldly into his presence and fear Him with a holy fear,...
“It’s gotta be, more like fallin’ in love, than something to believe...”
Baow #1
People fast the wrong things. They fast them self of the word of God. They fast them selfs of church, they fast themselfs of the spirit, they fast them themselfs of prayer.
Then they ask why they don’t feel the presence. They ask why they feel empty. They ask why they’re nip getting blessed, they ask why life seems so easy for some people.
Life isn’t easy. Were just not...

Promises - seek ye first.
Just something that hit me in the shower, so I pounded it out in my iPad (PTL :D) this is more of an outline, but I think I make the point decently.

Some people today have a hard time believing that God is alive and moving and doing work through people everywhere. shocker right? well it shouldn’t be, if you look at the number of churches that have resorted to portraying God as nothing more than a…teaching lesson. ew. really? OR this one huge mega-church thats trying to say Jesus isn’t the only way to heaven. double ew.

“No limits, no boundaries is no joke.”

It is said that pain is the most effective...
I humbly disagree.
With pain, you only know if you did something wrong, and it’s a completly extrinsic interpretation of direction. you could do something worng for years and keep getting hurt by it because your maybe only changing one or two things, but you keep getting burned, you keep being directed and taught by pain.
I believe peace is the greatest instructor.

mighty2save:
its a common thing to hear, especially in church, that within 5 minutes of meeting someone you should tell them you are a christian. this has always seemed so odd to me, kind of like saying i have brown hair or i like reading. thrown in their and just… weird. because shouldnt people be able to…
tres thing-os
so…yeah. I’ve gotta crack down on whats been happening at home. I can still be in the word, i can still watch service, and i can still serve but….this has gotten out of hand. And i know, I’ve tried and tried, but no matter how many attempts it takes I…i can’t give up. no matter what they say, i can’t just walk away.
and i have recently (as in like three...

brontebella asked: where did you preach at? :]
My mom didn't like that my message last night said...
And I honored her, and agreed that the actual dying part wouldn’t be easy, but the result of the death, as I clarified when I preached last night, going to heaven for dying for the cause of Christ is easy, and that living for Him is the adventure, the excitment, the purpose of out existance and our life. Biblically. Philli 1:21 to live is Christ and to die is gain. Mark 8:35. I could go on....
Im a screw up, and i’m wierd, but im getting better.

AWESOME things happened today.
first, two spills happened at work. sounds odd that theyd be awesome, but it was so cool, becaus eof what was imparted upon me by Pastor Eric on sunday night. “LAUGHTER IN THE FACE OF FAMINE AND DESTRUCTION.” I’m straight grinning on my hands and knees cleaning the mall floor….and then i go on to sell twice as much as the entire kiosk did...
"God, don't let me take my eyes off of you."
I said that, walking form the BCM to class today, and i got a word right there. It was like God smacked me in the face “IM NOT GOING TO LET YOU. But you…you need to not let you.” wow…We pray for God to not let us fall into temptation, or do this or that or the other, but its like the concept of praying for patience, God will create opportunity for us to be patient to...
UHHHHHHH
Great night, just sayin.
on to the next
on, on to the next one.
How many times...
Have you said Im “looking for love”?
You just crave that touch, that feel, that presence of someone that will never betray you, that is patient, that doesn’t judge, that is kind, that won’t boast, taht is proud of you, taht wants you for you, in all that you are the good and the bad, that looks past your past and only sees your future, and how much that someone will...
Day One - something you hate about yourself
I hate that i can’t pay attention in math lecture. Like im on tumblr writing this right now in class. blahhh. I hate that my past has shaped enough of my future to quirk me from time to time. and its not what i’ve done, its peoples misconceptions about what i’ve done and am doing, which im aware i have no control over, i just dont like that…well, that they have those...
maybe i'll actually do this one
Day 01→ Something you hate about yourself.
Day 02 → Something you you wish wouldn’t be the way it was. Day 03 → Something you have to forgive yourself for. Day 04 → Last time you forgave someone for something. Day 05 → Something you hope to do in your life. Day 06 → Something you hope you never have to do. Day 07 → Someone who has made your life worth living for. Day 08 → Someone who made your...
Why hello floor, meet my face. Its about to be there for quite sometime. I’ve got some talking to do with God, because I SHOULD NOT BE FEELING THIS.

KEEP THE SMACK TALK UP :D
For real, i love it, It’s either an opportunity for me to minister, or confirmation that my choice was the right one. I love you all, but what some fail to realize is that tough love is still love. Let’s keep it real, that’s all im trying to do. matty five eleven, and im doin it. All of me, for all of you, God. Let’s Go.
It's not going to be easy
Shoot, noone even said it was going to be better.
But to know I’m never alone, and perpetually loved is worth it.
It’s about COMMITMENT. Persuing commitment in some areas, while breaking it off in others. If you don’t get it, then you probably won’t because your refusing to. But that won’t stop me from trying to EXPLAIN it.
A relationship is NOTHING without...
I have alot to say
but i’ll spare you all haha
Its been a minute since i posted on here, I’ve been going through some huge dealies, God’s been doing work, hands down, like always. Right now I’m sitting on a couch, in a place of strong annointing, on 50th right between Fowler and Fletcher.
I pray that i may, one day soon, call this place home,

Gospel = Go Spell
Huh, i get it now.
Spell it out to everyone…BECAUSE IT’S FOR EVERYONE. Be simple, be true, be you, just DO IT. And its soooo easssssyyyy. We have it…inside of us…so now we share it. biggity-baow. Speak life over situations of unbelivers, over the sick, over the hurting, and as problems get solved, people get healed, and get set free, souls get saved. Its not a choice to,...

It could be worse

Getting tested because I’m going to the next level. I know where my strength comes from, where my provision comes from, and Who lives in my heart.
It’s almost to the point where….okay, yeah it sucks, and my bank account is more or less getting cut in half, but I know that bylearning and by keeping my mind focused and by relying on my faith, that...
4 - Who/What inspires you to write?
hmmmmmmm…I guess you could say everything. Like above all, God does. My writing is a gift He gave me, but in addition, it’s formd by his creation. Also, i allow my emotions to form my writings, be them expositiry, or a verse. Typically, though, I do my very best writing in the house of God, not to sound cliche, but its true, i just…i recieve a revelation, or a word, or a topic or...
3 - Write a creepy story
Okay, so i wrote this scray holloween story when i was waaayyy younger about how my school was taken ver by evil-doers, and drinkers and smokers, and people who hurt themselfs and people who didn’t believe in God, and fought and just did the wrong things.
Then i went to Highschool and my story came to life.
Creepy. Good thing i re-wrote the ending, or else it would have been sad as well.
2 - Write a poem (haiku)
Its these things you say
stop look listen breathe. its time to
re-evaluate
1 - Write a short love story
It was the most perfect, completed feeling He’d ever experianced. No greater love than this, even though it hurt Him, even though it was mocked, it was worth it to Him, because of His love. It was an act of love to resound through out the ages to the end of time, touching everyone, effecting everyone, even if they were unaware. This choice, this love that was portrayed wasn’t the love...
Totally stole this but...
…I am so utterly down.

What/who inspires you to write?
Since when you have been writing; and what type of stories do your write; why?

What is your writing style most like?
Favorite type of literature.
Write a short bio of yourself.

I can let you get close
but not too close. And not because I don’t want it, but because I’m still growing. And this isn’t just directed to one person (thats what facebook posts are for), but to..anyone. I’m still growing in God, and I have no plans to stop, but I had to go from a Reborn baby with a rather religious background to an adolescent christian pretty darn quick....
