Car Ads and Relationships

I saw a car advertisement that had a girl that was worried about her parents not socializing enough because they only had 16 friends on Facebook, but she had over 200 friends. While she talked, the scene would flash between her sitting at her computer by herself and her parents out in their car enjoying a party with their 16 friends. Sad state of affairs for people when they think they have a social life based on a number of people that have ‘friended’ them on the computer.

Need to shop? Go online.

Need to donate money? Go online.

Want to farm? Farmville!

Want to play games? We have an app for that.

The only reason anyone socializes any more is because we need money to pay for all the gadgets we want.

Have our gadgets become our task masters?

“My TV works fine, but it’s not big enough.”

“My DVD player plays DVDs well enough, but it’s not a BluRay disc player. Oh, the quality is so wonderful; it’s almost like being there.” Now you have to replace all your DVDs with BluRay discs.

Huh? Why not try ‘being there.’ Can’t get any more real than that.

We get our news from the internet. We don’t talk to people anymore. We have so isolated ourselves we don’t know how to have relationships anymore. We bury our faces in computers, books, video games, chat rooms, and the list goes on.

It’s easy to trash talk someone you don’t know personally. It’s easy to look down on those you don’t have a relationship with. When we can depersonalize people it’s easy to dismiss them and their opinions. When we refuse to talk to people because they don’t agree with what we think that’s NOT love. When you feel you must resort to name calling, you’ve lost any argument or point you may have tried to make. If you want to claim someone is going to hell before you even get to know that person, why should they even listen to you share with them about Jesus.

Ask yourself this, "How did Jesus approach people?" His worst criticisms and references of 'children of the devil' were always directed at religious people. Hmm?

Anyway. Until next time...whenever that will be...Love Jesus, eat cheesecake and listen to some Pink Floyd

Matthew 21:28-31

Matthew 21:28-31

28 "But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, 'Son, go, work today in my vineyard.'

29 "He answered and said, 'I will not,' but afterward he regretted it and went.

30 "Then he came to the second and said likewise. And he answered and said, 'I [go], sir,' but he did not go.

31 "Which of the two did the will of [his] father?" They said to Him, "The first." Jesus said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you that tax collectors and harlots enter the kingdom of God before you.

I was thinking about this the other day. How many of us say we “will do whatever you ask God.” We make all kinds of claims to righteousness. We don’t smoke. We don’t drink. We go to church. We think we are building up all these brownie points with God. But we don’t do the simple things that Jesus said were the top 2 priorities – “Love God, then love your neighbors.”

We’re so busy trying to ‘prove’ how worthy we are, that we forget that “not by works of righteousness will anyone be justified.” We neglect or ignore those who need to be touched by Jesus, by refusing to touch them. The very people that need Jesus the most are the same people we refuse to have anything to do with because it might make us look bad in the eyes of the religious people.

Jesus didn’t care that he was called the “friend of sinners.” Sinners need him. We need him. If we say that we’ll “go, sir” to work in the vineyard, don’t you think maybe we should?

Be blessed. Be a blessing.

Eat cheesecake. Listen to Pink Floyd. Love Jesus above all.

JEEZ....

Nearing the end of September. I hate trying to do something...best laid plans and all...
Anyway...I've been working on some thoughts I just need to get them written down and posted here. Hopefully they will actually sound profound.

Know anyone that needs a DJ in the FWB, Destin, Pensacola, Panama City area? Looking for a few more gigs.

Be blessed. Be a blessing.
Cheesecake, spaghetti, love Jesus above all.

Nearing the End of August

Only 2 more days in August and I haven't once blogged this month. JEEZ...

There are so many things that pass through my mind over the days...some of them actually shareable...LOL...

Does anyone even wonder what's up with each other? Everyone who's read my posts and whose posts I've read, would we even recognize each other is we past on the street?

There is so much that I should do. There is so much I need to do...but if I don't do it, God will still be on His throne. He will still love me. He will not cast me away from Him. I am not ashamed of the Gospel. Jesus died for my sins, and rose again to justify me before the Father. There is nothing I can do to add to or take away from His great sacrifice. For God so loved...me...

That is so cool. All I can do is love Him back...in my own imperfect way...

Until next time...Know you are greatly and unconditionally loved by Jesus. Me, I'm not that great, but I am loved.

Blessing and Grace,
DJ GlenMC

Nearing the End of July

Fourth of July party in Valparaiso was great. Had a great time. They want me to DJ next year for them. That will be cool.

I am going to try to get back to writing something in here every now and again. I've been having my usual amount of thoughts about things, but not finding the moments to sit and write them here. I've been more busy lately which is good. Better than being bored and unemployed.

Wish I was independently wealthy though. Also wish I had some extra income...anyone know anyone that needs a DJ? LOL...

Well, until next time.

DJ GlenMC

Happy Fourth of July aka Independence Day

May we all come to know true freedom found only in JESUS the CHRIST.
Blessings and Grace.

Look for me on Facebook...Glen McClead

Have a great day...

Be blessed. Be a blessing.

Thinkin' and Drivin'

I was driving home from work today and I was thinking about how a friend of mine, who's a fantastic guitar player, told me he couldn't read music. I was thinking man...Then I started to think about people who can read music. They can play but it seems to have no heart.

That got me to thinking about the people I know that don't have a whole lot of book knowledge about God, but they are some of the most loving people and they have a heart for Jesus. Then I started thinking about people who have all this book knowledge about God, but don't know a thing about love. They consider their "knowledge" their "proof" that they love God more than the next man.

Maybe it's just us as a society that have been conditioned that way. We think those with the letters after their names are the only ones that have anything to share about Jesus. Only they can teach us.

I have a tendency to think a lot sometimes.

Be blessed. Be a blessing.
Love Jesus. Eat cheesecake. Listen to some Floyd.

Simple thought.

Love doesn't need an audience. Love just does.
