Yesterday was the first of our series Masquerade and I hope you all liked it as much as I did. It was really a real message that we all need to hear. How true it is that we hide ourselves behind different masks to fake not only others out but ourselves? For some crazy reason we even think that we can fake God out. Its time to be real. I mean FOR REAL, like be honest, stop hiding BE REAL. And on that note I'm going to be. I really feel that I am but after meeting with some good friends this weekend and we were able to be real with each other it encouraged me EVEN MORE(THANKS GUYS!).
Sunday morning I didn't want to be there. I was up at 5:45am, I didn't feel good and it was just one of those days. OOHHH I said it, I wasn't in the mood. But, You know what? I had to have a sit down/pow wow with just me and Jesus for a few minutes and it was great. We had already set things up, it was almost time for the experience to start and I knew something had to change about my attitude. I just took a few minutes just to talk and to listen. I just needed to quiet myself before the Lord. We need to be real with our self and Jesus. Sometimes we need a sit down/pow wow of our own. We need to be quiet and to listen. I had to say out loud, Its not about me Jesus, Its about YOU! I really said that out loud too. After it was all done to see and hear about the Life Change that happened yesterrday was amazing. People giving their hearts to Jesus and people coming to get prayer about the masks they have been putting up made for and awesome day. The point of all this... Its not about me, its not about you, its all about Jesus. Lets remember that. If your in ministry( if you say your a christian your in ministry) and your not in the mood, its not about you. Lets take down the masks and get real.

Getting real,
Jason
