Carwash

Posted in Religion & Spirituality: Christianity by joeprainito on October 30th, 2008

I can still remember the day when I first got my drivers license. I remember going to the drive in, my first speeding ticket, and the craziest thing, going through a carwash with the windows rolled down. True it was a crazy thing to do, but the truth was that the inside of the car needed a wash just as bad as the outside, so into the carwash I went. The only problem was that the soft looking tastles, were hard, and they stung as they hit my arm, the hot wax got all over the inside of my car, and the soap suds were hanging off of the roof of the interrior. It’s a fun memory to look back on, but not one that I will ever relive.

You know sometimes we focus so much on how clean and pretty we look on the outside; brushing our hair and teeth. Putting on the nicest clothes, and wearing the best smelling cologne. But too often we neglect to seek a good cleaning for what’s inside of us. Yes our hearts that we so prodly proclaim is the home of Jesus, may very well be in need of a cleaning, and though the outside may be appealing to the world around you, is the lord truly content with what lies on the inside you? I encourage you to come before the lord and ask him to clense you of your sins, and iniquities. Roll down the windows of your hearts, so that you’ll be fully clean from the inside out. Psalm 51:1

The Diaper Goo Parade

Posted in Religion & Spirituality: Christianity by joeprainito on October 23rd, 2008

Have you ever changed a dirty diaper, and finding yourself amazed with the results, decided to parade the diaper for all to see? I know it sounds kind of disgusting doesn’t it; it’s not usually something that we think about doing, but then again; never say never. The other day I found myself amazed with my findings while changing my baby’s diaper. I know what you’re thinking; “Come on Joe, grow up, change the diaper and move on! Don’t parade it for the household to see!”. But with that said, let me say that many people today parade dirty diapers, and don’t even know it; let me explain.

Scripture says in the book of Isaiah that all of our righteousness is as filthy rags. Yet I’ve seen plenty of Christians Parading the streets with their heads held high, claiming to be the greatest Christian with all of the greatest deeds. Truth is, their Parading that dirty diaper, when their in need of a cleaning. If this sounds like you, then I encourage you to stop boasting in yourself and in your great deeds, and rather do as Paul did; Boast in the Lord and in His Righteousness.

Trick or Treat

Posted in Religion & Spirituality: Christianity by joeprainito on October 16th, 2008

Beware of the gouls, and the freaks that run the neighborhood one night out of the year. They’ll terrorize your animals, ruin your grass, and their out to get one thing; and that one thing is in your house. Lock the doors, and turn out the lights, maybe they’ll go away. Thats right, Trick of treaters are on their way. We all make the mad dash to the store to give away the best candy that will impress the kids on the block, in hopes that we wont be the home known as the “crapy candy” home. But have we neglected the ones sent to our home all year long?

Scripture says that GOd brings people our way, that we may be a blessing to. And though we dont want to be known to the neighborhood as someone who gives away the cheap candy, is heaven watching as we poorly distribute the Love of God? I encourage you to give away the best of what God’s given you. And im sure that you’ll be known as the home on the block who gives away the everlasting, most satisfying sweetness of the love of Christ.

The Talent Show

Posted in Religion & Spirituality: Christianity by joeprainito on October 9th, 2008

When I was younger our church had a talent show. I was proud to demonstrate my talent of singing and playing the guitar at the age of 8. Some jeered, and others Cheered, but despite the crowd and their response, we enjoyed the oppertunity to use our talent.

God has given to each one of us a talent and this stage of life in which to use our talents for His glory. And though this life can become busy, we must’nt ignore Gods gifts, and our ability to use them. You can be assured that not only will you have a heavenly audience, but that they’ll be cheering, and requesting a continuous oncore.

Stinky Feet

Posted in Religion & Spirituality: Christianity by joeprainito on October 2nd, 2008

Have you ever had a long day, then got home, removed your shoes, and noticed that you’ve chased your family away and left the pet’s to pass out? The look and smell of our feet can tell alot about what we’ve been doing throughout the day. Unfortunately, if the smell is to much to bear, no one will stick around to listen to your daily report. Romans 10:15 states that the feet of those who bring the good news of the Gospel have beautiful feet. So my question, How many people truly have beutiful feet according to the scriptural definition? Are you carrying the Good news of what Jesus has done for you daily?

I encourage you, at the end of the day go home, call the family together to take a good smell of your feet, if you’ve chased them away maybe you should re-examine where your feet have been. I know that’s foolish. But examine your steps just the same, and bring the Love of Jesus to the world so that you can be assured that your feet are not only beautiful, but odor free.
