The Uprising

God is calling for a generation that is extreme for Him. I desire to live fully for Him, but sometimes I ask myself what am I doing for Him. I think about Him all time, pray, work with the youth out at Jubilee, but I am so dissatisfied. I think about my life, and ask is this is what it was meant to u like? I was sitting with some of my friends the other day, playing the “what do you want to do game.” I really hate that game, those times that you sit around asking everybody what they want to do. I am very chill in my personality. I enjoy just sitting around talking and hanging out. I don’t have to be playing some sort of game to be ok. I always just make random suggestions, and can normally list off a bunch of things to do. One of the things I said this particular time was go to the Union Gospel Mission and do something for them. The suggestion was called random, and dismissed as a joke. But why does that have to be some thing that we wouldn’t just go do. Why don’t we look for opportunities like that? Why is it that I get all excited to go and fill my stomach with a thanksgiving meal, but am apathetic to go out and do anything that will really have an impact for His kingdom? We will sit around, and ask (or in my case watch everybody else ask) what they want to do but we don’t ever ask God. What is stopping me and my friends from spending time together just praying. I had somebody come and post a comment on my blog, getting me to check out their blog. From there I found my way to a dramatic presentation of the vision. This is something that I have heard before, but the first time I have ever seen it put to flash. I forget sometimes that our lives our not our own. I don’t know sometimes how to live a life completely devoted to Him. This presentation is put on by a group that seems to be starting a 24/7 prayer place. I long for their to be a movement like that here, to have a place that can continually be bathing the city in prayer, that seems so amazing to me.
