So I have been holding on to this thought for a while and finally willing to release it. Might be a tangent but I am ok with it. Commenting on those who say that Wussy Men go to church! Now I am not denying that there are wussy men in the Church, there are guys who go that in all honestly are pretty wimpy, but here is the deal. Not all men who go to Church are Wussy’s.
I feel that a real man would admit that he doesn’t know everything and set his pride down by saying I dont have everything figured out and I do need some help! I do need to trust in God, and lean on him, because I am not strong enough to stand alone.
Did I really just say that? you better believe it! See I don’t know if you guys know me that well. I’m a Man, and ain’t afraid to show it. I like to build things with my hands, I don’t wear tight jeans, I don’t pluck eyebrows or spend a lot of time on my hair, I like to watch a good game of football, Love to grill me some burgers and steaks, I have a lab, I own a truck(even though it may be a ranger), I like to work on my truck, I like to wrestle, I don’t like to fight,but I’m not afraid to bleed, love to camp, fish, go shooting, Like to protect and provide, love sports, have scars all over my hands, I’m consistent and a man of my word, I’m not 2 faced, I don’t pretend to be something I am not, I work for everything I get, I love God with all my heart, and I ain’t afraid to show it, I believe Jesus died on the cross for my sins. I understand that I am born a Sinner, but once I accepted Jesus into my heart I am set free from my sins, not saying things will be perfect because you still go through tough times, but I invited God to be with me and guide me so I don’t do it alone. I live everyday for God and I know God’s plan for my life is far better than mine.
I don’t go to church to follow some rules, or live by what some guy said cause it sounded good. I dont’ go to church to gossip, I don’t go to church because I am afraid, or because I feel weak. I don’t go to Church to find my spouse, I go to church because I have a relationship with Jesus Christ, and He has proved himself real to me in a real way. I go to church to continue to grow deeper in my relationship with God. I go to church because it says you need to in the Bible. I go to church to get fed so I can be sent out and achomplish God’s will that He has for me! I have given God 2 years of my life and I know I am nothing like I used to be. I have never lived my life like this before, giving God my everything, but it’s authentic and genuine, and I know that my life is way more fun, exciting and happy. I don’t need to be fake, or put on some front. I finally have dreams, I finally have a purpose, and a Identity. I am still a man, and I love G0d with all my heart. If you think I am a whimp that’s fine, But what kind of man are you?
