I LOVE YOU!

What’s up! I know I talk about love all the time but love means a lot to me. We take the most currently used phrase and just say it. Do you mean it? You have heard it thousands of times “I Love You” lets examine something. Jesus said in the book of Luke 6:27 “But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.” The first thing we need to notice is the fact that he said “you who hear me!” So we have a choice to listen? Which is the obedient thing to do or do most of us if were honest ignore it. The second principle is “do good to those who hate you.” Wow now that is a hard one! My point is both of the things I have talked about so far are so hard to do. However if they were not important Jesus would have never said this! As hard as it is we as believers must do the very thing he talks about in this verse. Its amazing the results you get when you do this. We can reach out and love on people who hate us and sometimes they wake up and see you’re a real genuine person and they see Jesus all in you. You see when we do street ministry we get a whole bunch of critics and people that hate us. So we serve those people more than anyone else and I tell you it’s not easy! Jesus said “do good to your enemies” and doing good to them goes beyond words; it takes action and reaching out to our enemies! Jesus commands us to do this very thing! Love is what put Jesus on the cross. He loved us enough to suffer extreme pain for us, physical and emotional. You see he died for his enemies and he said “Father forgive them for they no not what they are doing” wow that’s mercy! We were separated from God and he seen THE WAY to bring about reconnection and peace to our relationship with God. All you have to do is except Jesus and he will give you a love like no other. Maybe you have accepted Jesus and you’re a Christian, but if you’re honest you struggle with loving your enemies and doing good to them. I know I do! Maybe today is the day you write the very people down you don’t like and begin to pray over that list. You will be amazed how this will bring about action in the relationship you could care less about. Pour out love on these people, IT WORKS! “I Love You” is a phrase we really need to understand! It’s more than just something you say all the time it has meaning! Use it with meaning today! That is LOVE! If you don’t have a relationship with Jesus Christ I would LOVE to talk to you about making him your everything! Email me or leave a comment. I will get back to you today! Have a Great Day!

Have you died?

Good Morning to all, this is one of the shortest post ever but PLEASE take the time to understand what Paul is saying! 2 TIMOTHY VERSES 11-13 read like this! 11. Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him; 12. if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us; 13. if we are faithless, he will remain faithful, for he cannot disown himself. The most important question I have for you is “Have you died with him?” Have you given your life up to serve him? I pray you wrestle with these two questions until you get an answer! If you want to know how to have a relationship with Jesus you can shoot me an email at jason.ashley@charter.net. I will be glad to help you in anyway and get you a bible as well as help you take your next step! I Love You All! Jason

Salvation Rings!!!

First I would like to let you know you are loved very much! By Jesus Christ and us the body of believers (THE CHURCH). Jesus said in John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” It’s not hard Jesus done all of the suffering on the cross so that we could be set free! The Bible also says in John 3:17 “For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him” If you would like to accept Jesus’ gift and surrender your LIFE to him just say this prayer. “Dear Lord Jesus I know I’m a sinner and I need your forgiveness, I believe you died on the cross and rose from the grave, Come into my life Jesus and take complete control I give it all to you AMEN! If you just said this prayer you have asked the creator of everything to save you and he just did so smile and believe, you just made the best decision of your life! WE LOVE YOU! Tommy and Jason!
