2 Peter 1-3; John 1

And there it is......2 Peter 1: 3-4 Everything that goes into a life of pleasing God has been miraculously given to us by getting to know, personally and intimately, the One who invited us to God. The best invitation we ever received! We were also given absolutely terrific promises to pass on to you—your tickets to participation in the life of God after you turned your back on a world corrupted by lust.

I still yearn for the world's 'atta girl'......so until I put that behind me, the freedom I preach to others will elude me....not always, just when I am lusting after that 'atta girl'..... I so desire in 2010 to turn my back on that….

Because the stakes are so high, even though you're up-to-date on all this truth and practice it inside and out, I'm not going to let up for a minute in calling you to attention before it. This is the post to which I've been assigned—keeping you alert with frequent reminders—and I'm sticking to it as long as I live. I know that I'm to die soon; the Master has made that quite clear to me. And so I am especially eager that you have all this down in black and white so that after I die, you'll have it for ready reference. (2 Peter 1:12-15)

So 2010…doesn’t that look weird….I am asking you all to help me to grow and asking if you will allow me/us to help each other because the stakes are HIGH…

Help me to not look more to people than to Him….
Which may mean an end to blogging...because I probably more than I would ever admit do it for comments...to meet new people....to maybe here have someone affirm me...until then tho how can I pray for you.
