Well, I called my Dr. this morning.  My fatigue, tiredness, hair falling out and cold intolerance has been back at it, and I don't know if it ever changed.  I suspect that my thyroid medication should be increased.  So, I called the Dr and gave 'em my sob story, hoping they'll increase my dosage without a trip in.  I know, I'm not a Dr. but, I'll admit I have done my share of diagnosis.  I can't tell you how many times, especially with my kids, I've said "Oh.  They don't know what they're talking about.  They do need an antibiotic." But I didn't go to medical school.  Heck, I didn't even go to college. 

You know what else some people do.  They try to act like they know Christ, when they only know about him.  I am going to teach on this Sunday night in Vision.  People try to ride coattails to be something they're not-a Christ follower.  

Acts 19:13Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, "In the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out." 14Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. 15(One day) the evil spirit answered them, "Jesus I know, and I know about Paul, but who are you?"

I mean what these sons were doing was right, and a good thing, but it was like saying "a friend of a friend of ours said we could do this."  No.  Jesus wants to be our #1 friend.  I mean just like the antibiotics so many times that I just knew (based on the authority of me) that my kids needed, even good things done in the wrong way are bad.  

Acts 19:16Then the man who had the evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all. He gave them such a beating that they ran out of the house naked and bleeding.

Do you know Jesus personally today?  I'm not just talking about salvation.  Do you come to church and try to feed all your spiritual needs off of your preacher and your Christian friends?  Do you watch Christian TV and expect that to complete you without spending anytime in private conversation with Christ?  When he went to the cross, he could see you.  He was thinking of you.  When you look for Him, you'll find Him, if you'll go to Him.
