Minstrels in the Gallery – More Pat Terry

Greetings Dear Reader,

I do not wish for a moment to force my faith on anyone.  I think it is a great lie that faith is only a personal private thing.  My beliefs are very personal but they are also universal.  What I mean is that what I believe is that everyone needs Jesus.

How a express that belief is what matters.  I think that the right way is to live what Christ commands us to live and when given the opportunity give him the credit.  If I am honest, I always have an “ulterior” motive.  It is that I want to tell you the truth about Jesus.

My life has a pattern of telling people when I find a great restaurant, vendor, or product.  If I truly believe that what Jesus has to offer is what is best for everyone why would I not want to tell you.  After all, Jesus commands us to do so.  He insists that we do it by being good to others but he still insists.

If I had the cure to cancer and kept it to myself you would think me vile and reprehensible.  I believe unashamedly that Jesus is the cure to everything.  I will never preach at you or demand that you see this.  I just want you to have the great thing that I have. 

Oh, and don’t think that the truth of what I believe prevents me to from failing, struggling, and being and outright jerk.  I am just trying to follow Christ more closely so that I earn the right to talk about him.

This morning this song was dancing through my head so here it is. I really do want to tell you about Jesus.

Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure store."
