HERE IS THE MENTAL PICUTRE I WANT YOU TO GET BEFORE I GET STARTED.

PICTURE THIS BLACK SCREEN CUT IN HALF LEFT IS BLACK RIGHT IS WHITE

I TYPE THE WORDS IN BLACK AS WELL.

THE WORDS ON THE BLACK SIDE WILL NOT SHOW UP. WHITE SIDE DOES.

NOW I TYPE IN WHITE AND  BLACK SHOWS WHILE WHITE DOES NOT.

NOW I TYPE IN GREY AND YOU CAN SEE BOTH.

THAT BEING SAID HER IS MY ? FOR US.

HOW OFTEN DO DO WE SEE THINGS PEOPLE OR ISSUES THIS WAY.

 We are often the products of our own or others judgement's of us in  this manner.

We succeed or fail. Attempt or not. appreciate or don't. love or hate, forgive or resent

ugly or cute, happy or sad, mad or glad, angry or calm.

   As you can see by these examples they all are extreme and unbalanced. Why are we so black or white all or nothing a or f in our lives. If we live a life where we meet in the middle and can find  common ground our lives will not be as stressful or punishable. This is not an invitation to justify the wrong or minimize it in any way.
                                                               Take the word     TR   U   ST

 & Take the word     TR  U    TH

Using the same princilple above we see that the common ground is the letter YOU.

We need to stop expecting ourselves to be perfect or allowing ourselves to be judged as failures by ourselves or others. The choice is ours to make. We are be asked to  TRUST THE TRUTH OF CHRIST. We need to accept the process and not grade ourselves so harshly. I am proud of all of you for doing as well as you are and ask you to hang tough and just meet on common ground and see GOD's TRUTH revealed.

In Christ arm's always

Jim.
