I'm loosing my hair.  If you don't believe me, just ask Mark.  It comes out in clumps.  It stops up our drains.  The other night he had to clean it out of the bathroom sink.  Do they make Rogaine for women?  And what I think is highly unfair, is not only is it falling off my head where it belongs, it somehow attaches to my face!  And let me tell you, if you're one of those people who think people who have plastic surgery things done are bad people-then you better start your judging now.  Because I can promise you this, the minute that I can afford laser hair removal, it is SO happening.  I'm not sure where I get these wonderful traits.  People in NC, who don't know my dad, think that I look just like my mom.  But everybody in Tx. thinks that I look just like my dad.  And unfortunately, I think like I look like my dad too.  When I say unfortunately, it sort of makes a female insecure when everyone tells her without her make-up, she looks like a man.  My father has male hereditary baldness, which basically means he got it from his father.  So that makes sense as to my hair falling out, since everyone says I'm just like my dad.  My grandmother in Tx. was so upset when Daddy started loosing his hair, she told him to get a toupe (fake hair), and he did.  I didn't even know until I was 6, that my dad was bald.  We were visting NC and I went into the bedroom we were staying in and there was a styrofoam head, and there was hair on that head, and  it was my dad's hair!!!!  My cousin and I stumbled on it, 'cause Daddy was still in the bed.  Like I said, my dad got it from his dad.  I never met him.  He left my grandmother, and my dad only saw him a few times. But the real kicker is that he lived less than 20 minutes from me when I was growing up!  He didn't want to see me or meet me.  He came to the hospital when I was in a coma after a car acciden.  But, I wasn't awake of course, and I never saw him again.  He died and I never knew him, and he never knew me. 

That's the story of churches today, as well as our community, nation and world.  So many people are so close to Jesus, but they don't want to meet Him.  I believe churches are full of the lost who believe they are saved because of heritage and legacy and status. Like Paul said "having a form of godliness but denying its power."

While I was out with my surgery there were a fair amount of nights I couldn't sleep.  (I know I can't imagine me not sleeping either)  There was a program that came on MSNBC.  It was an old Dateline on a man by the name of Carlton Pearson.  Carolton used to attend Oral Roberts University and became a pastor and sat on their board.  But after years, he began to struggle with the belief that his granparents had died and went to hell because they weren't saved.  So, he claims God gave him a revelation, Hell is on earth.  That's right.  He believes that Hell is on earth.   http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14337492/  This kind of junk and trash is exactly what a lost world wants to hear. That no matter what they do, they are not going to go to Hell.  Carlton says that even Hitler is in Hevean, he calims God told him. 

Do you see what is going on here?  Do you see the battle we're up against?  Do you care? I mean I usually don't.  Or I live like I don't.  I'm too busy with my own problems to care that a lost and dying world believes that Hell doesn't even exist.  Right??  Roger talked Sunday about us all having friends and family members that are flat out LOST.  I have 'em and you do too.  God help me to care.  God help this to stay on our minds. 

Matthew 7 21-23"Knowing the correct password—saying 'Master, Master,' for instance— isn't going to get you anywhere with me. What is required is serious obedience—doing what my Father wills. I can see it now—at the Final Judgment thousands strutting up to me and saying, 'Master, we preached the Message, we bashed the demons, our God-sponsored projects had everyone talking.' And do you know what I am going to say? 'You missed the boat. All you did was use me to make yourselves important. You don't impress me one bit. You're out of here.'
