Let No Man Steal Your Treasure

Well I'm back. Sunday was a nice day. My brother & sister in-law came down and met us at the Texas Roadhouse for lunch & then they came over to our house for a nice visit. After they left Roy took a nap, because he started on night shift.
After Roy got up we got ready and went to church. My brother, Chad is our paster. We have church for now in my moms basement. I know it doesn't sound like much of a church, but let me tell ya.. we have some very good holy ghost shoutin' times. We have really good music too. This past Sunday Paster Chad preached about "let no man steal your treasure". He asked a question "how can a man steal your treasure"? The sermon was about how a man can steal your treasure. One of the things he pointed out was by getting your eyes on a man's earthly treasures and how you began to want his earthly treasures. He said then you loose site of your real treasure which is in Jesus Christ. He preach how our real treasure is through him and the gift of the Holy Ghost + Gift of the spirits. He also preach about fasting and prayer.
I've been thinking on the sermon that was preach. Yesterday evening I went down in my backyard under my trees and set in my swing I began to read the bible & think on the things that were preached. I know that I have lost sight of my first love from time to time. The bible says we have all sinned and fell short of the glory of God. But I pray that God will forgive me. I'm starting to feel better in spirit and I'm getting more of a desire for the things of God. I want to grow more through him and be a shinning light unto others.
You know when I was more focus on God I got more art finished and I didn't draw as much as I do now. I have been feeling guilty of some other things too. I have alot of ideas that God gave me in the middle of the night. I haven't been drawing them. Sometimes I have a lot of pressure especially around this time of the year. I've wanted so bad to get back into what I enjoy drawing. After my next show is over I plan to get more into my sketch diaries. I would like to start offering more original angel art on ebay. I want that to be the main thing I sell. I will also be drawing more fine art too...I can't forget that.
Well this is all for now and please remember me in your prayers : )
