Spark the revival

I spent last night in Charlotte as a Jesus culture concert. Aside from a few songs here and there, I didn't know much about the group. My sister goes to school a couple hours away though, so I don't see her much and she asked me to go with her. An easy yes, obviously. I had no clue what I was getting into...
The night opened with some music the noir speaker came out on stage. The uppity, California funny guy rubbed me the wrong way immediately and I found myself wondering how I'd make it through this. After 5 minutes I was hooked and my attention was on him wholly, and in turn, on God. He spoke about using a spark to start a revival and it really made me think about our job as Christians, and what we do, compared to what we could do. A lot of time we may sit back and live our private Christian lives but when we get back to our school, workplace, hangout spots, we fade from that. It's uncomfortable to be in that situation and be the light shining in the darkness. You know what though? Sometimes God takes us out of our comfort zone to do great things. He took Moses way out of his comfort zone as Moses led people through wilderness for 40 years! And the guy was 80, when he left! I'm 24 and I would've quit immediately. He didn't quit though.
A lot of times we say to ourselves, were just one person, what can we do? That's not true at all. You may be one human, but a man that is carrying out Gods will can not be stopped. Problem is for whatever reason we aren't ready to carry that will out. The world is a dark place and humans by nature fear what can't be seen. Is it just a coincidence then that God tells us that Christians ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD?? Light beats dark every single time. We see it every day. It just takes a little bit. One little spark can light a whole forest fire. So where is the spark going to come from? We need to want it. So I challenge you to light that spark. Be fired up, and let it be known. You'll be amazed at the effects it could have
I love you all

Preaching isn't normally my thing, as this is kind of a personal blog. God laid that on my heart though, and that's aww job, to share. Those words are Gods words, I just write them down.

God going to work

I'm going to start out by explaining my complete disdain for the month of April. While it provides us with the beginning of the nba playoffs, that's generally the only positive for me. It starts to get incredibly hot out (went from highs of 50s to 80s in like 2 weeks), it has the nfl draft which just is a tease, final exams, allergy season, beach season where you realize you really aren't ready. There's many more things, the point is I just really don't like it. At all.
Then April 2013 happened. In 10 days, I've finally bought a car after what seemed like forever, I've met an incredible girl, I've picked my bible up and truly studied for the first time in a long time, I have a renewed interest in school, and am actually taking my future serious, instead of just as another day down the road.
The last few months have been looking up in general, but this one has really stood out for me. Hoping I can finish it strong and transition well into next month, and so on over time.

Side note for the people that read to keep up with my lifting and body transformation, I've hit a weight loss plateau at 285. Bumping up and down right around there, but gaining a ton of mass and strength, so I guess I'm ok with that for now. Planning on starting to do a cutting phase in may and see what happens there.

Thanks as always for reading, leave comments if you want, suggestions, anything really. Especially if it's suggestions on how to break that plateau!
