THE MORNING AFTER: Just ask.

Good morning Dames nd Gents..
Woke up to my, ever so popular, Holy Bible app.. If you don't have it, you really need to get up on it..

Before I continue, I just want to put this out there.. To me this blog is nothing more then just a collection of my spiritual thoughts, written down on my iPhone paper.. I'm going to be sharing much more then just hour long teachings(Hours for me.. You guys read through it in seconds) Now its not that I don't love doing it, but What I really want to do is open the door for spiritual thoughts and conversation.. EDIFYING spiritual debate (Cept' not with me.. Two-time debate champ in middle school and at home..) *JOKES*

The last thing I want is a blog where I'm just telling you what I think a portion of the scripture means.. I want reflection, opinion, correction, and edification. I'm a current Med student and the easiest way to learn is through a discussion, so feel free to comment and say what you must.. You never forget when your corrected and you shouldn't remember when your right (HUMBLE!)  Lol.
But now, back to our paid programming..

I woke up to John 16:24, as most of you did and for a second I couldn't stop smiling..

"Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full. (John 16:24 NKJV)"

Not only is my Heavenly Father willing to give, but he's asking me to give him a chance to give.. I closed my eyes, going over my current wish list, then I realized I didn't really want anything.. Just knowing that Jesus was well prepared to hold me down felt good enough for me..

But this isn't about being satisfied.. What I want to point out is that Christ knows that your needy.. And it doesn't stop there.. He's telling you, "Bro.. I see you got half a smirk on.. Your pushing through #Thestruggle, I respect it.. But come on.. Let me give you that breakthrough you've been waiting for.. Come. Ask and pray in my name so I can complete* your joy."

Can I get a Amen?? ....???
No.. I'm not going to go there again..

A lot of times we act too strong.. I say we but I don't know you.. You might be a super Christian.. I know I* act too strong.. *flexes* that's right..
One of my favorite quotes is "In comparison to Christ.." That there is a tool that's helped me through so much in this walk.. "I lost my wallet.. But in comparison to Christ, man I'm just so happy to be saved." Lets go deeper..  "Jesus! I lost my JOB, Christmas is creepin on up, ain't nothing going on but the rent, but in comparison to you Jesus, I'm going to be alright.."

And it's good.. It's okay.. It shows your perseverance.. It shows your strength, and most of all it shows the source of your strength..(you can worship God with what you choose to depend on) But if you ladies and gentlemen know how to give to your beloved ones, how much more does Jesus? Mathew 7:11

Lets not lose out on the comfort of asking CORRECTLY* for the sake of being the Optimus prime of Christianity.(who by the way is always getting beat up in the movies.. He reaches the brink of his extension and then all of a sudden he still wins.. Idk.. He must know Jesus) Not only is it okay to ask, it's okay to TELL.. Go ahead and tell your trusted ones.. If God chose to complete his desire for our lives using  himself as three individuals, The son The Father and The Holy spirit, why do we get caught up with doing everything by ourselves.. "Man, i can barely get through my day.. school, work, chores, I barely have time to pray but imma be iight, I does this, I'm a veteran out here for Christ, you heard!"

-_- .... :)

Thank God! I have people in my life I can run to and be lifted up! And Thank God you do to! (Sorry for yelling.. It's to early.)

Your going to wake up today and a couple of you are going straight to the kitchen.. I'm there as I speak. You don't forget to feed yourself because your tummy won't let your forget.. I pray that your spirit doesn't let you forget that it gets hungry too.. Get a bible, Get a bible app, Read one verse, read a whole chapter, read a whole book.. You want to know Christ and you want to hear his voice..? The Holy bible. There's not a preacher, a translator of scripture, not a reflection, not a devotional, not anything else that is more willing to speak to you then his own living word, found right there in the Bible..

If you've found yourself getting along with some extra baggage.. You may be on top of it, and you may be doing just fine, but *knock knock* Jesus is at the door and he wants to help.. He's going out of his way this morning to tell you that he wants your joy to be complete.. Just ask.

Heavenly father.. I can't tell you how amazing it is just to be able to call out your name.. All the honor belongs to you, all the glory, Father all my strength belongs to you.. Thank you for taking me this far, I've walked, I've ran, I've baby tumbled, there we're times where I had to drag myself, but I'm here and it's all thanks to your grace.. Let your grace abound in my peeps.. I know I'm not the only person out here needing you more today, Holy Spirit bless us with your presence and thank you for being ever so available to us.. Teach us how to ask, teach us how to receive your help, teach us how to know you.. I know your love is one step behind me, teach me how to come back to you, teach me how to remain in you. I get caught up with life, I get caught up in playing the roll of superman, but I'm renouncing that today.. I'm vulnerable by myself, prone to fall, but with you Jesus, I know my feet may fail but I know id be carried back home.. Thank you for being so patience, thank you for being so understanding of me.. I love you Jesus and I bless your day.. In Your Holy name I pray.. Amen..

I can't get GRACE ABOUNDS by HILLSONG up out of my head.. It may have had an impact in my prayer, but if you want to go ahead and check it out.. There's google.. Lol

Stay Jesus mi gente!
