What's Driving You?

Where are you currently in life and what DROVE you there?  For every place we have been in life, something DROVE us to it. Even for where we are going now, something is DRIVING us there? We must take time and find out what's pushing us. Is it money that DRIVES our life? Is it fame? Is it family?  We must be careful as to what DRIVES us. We all do it! Whenever there's a famine, lack, or scarcity of something in our lives, it DRIVES us from where we are to a place that we think will provide pleasure only to take us to our doom. 

What enemy of yours are you allowing to DRIVE your life?  What mistake did you make in your past that you are allowing to DRIVE your life? Is whats Driving you Driving yourself and those you love to death?

Is there a absence of love in your life? This absence of love can DRIVE you to give yourself in empty to another just to feel wanted and/or needed.  Ultimately this will leave lead to downfall by putting yourself into dangerous situations to do things that you said you would never do.  Like giving yourself over to STD's, abuse, homosexuality, and orgy's. You will continually be in and out of meaningless relationships.

Is there a lack of peace? This lack of peace can DRIVE you to use drugs in order to gain a 'high' or an 'escape' from the cares of life.  Once the high is over though, the problem or issue is still staring you in the face and has to be dealt with.  This road causes drug addictions because the drug has been given a false sense of resolve. 

Is there a lack of security? You will then spread gossip and lies about your so called friends in order to be the 'favorite' friend. You will say one thing to one friend, and another thing to the other all in the name of securing a friend. You will eventually always be involved in drama, fights, and lonely because no one will trust you. Letting insecurity DRIVE you, will leave you busted, disgusted, and alone. Do you want to be that person that everyone hates because you are messy with your friendships?

And just like Elimelech, we will die in our sickened state because we let famine or a lack of something drive us.  In Ruth 1:1-5, there was a family lead by a man named Elimelech. This family lived in Bethlehem-Judah (the future birthplace of Christ). The family had a great life there until a famine came. Once the famine came Elimelech searched for answers on how to care for his family during this time.  His search caused him to leave his settled homeland and move to Moab. Moab itself was quite a destitute and godless place. Elimelech had no idea this move would cost the ruin of his family. Both he and his sons died their leaving his wife behind widowed.  The famine, a scarcity of food, DROVE Elimelech to a godless and destitute land that caused the death of his family. Why move and settle for such a land? Why leave what's working and settled for death?

If you let GOD DRIVE you, HE will never lead you to a place of  total loss.  Even if HE lead you to an unfamiliar place, it is not a loss because you are in the will of GOD.  Even if HE leads to give up all your possessions, it is not loss because you are in the will of GOD.  Even if HE leads you to a place of isolation, you will not be alone because you are in the will of GOD and GOD is DRIVING you to the destiny HE has for you.  If GOD is not DRIVING your life, change vehicles and let HIM DRIVE your every move!

WHATS DRIVING YOU?

Lethal Kool-Aid (What Most People Die From)

Which of these options do you think most people die from?  Drugs? War? Cancer? Heart Attack? Water? Street Violence? Well, if you picked drugs you are wrong! If you picked cancer you are wrong! Heart attack and street violence...both wrong!  We are down to water and war. That's right...war is also a loser.  Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of diseases and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war!!! Isn't it crazy! In developing nations, their drinking water is a deadly mix of lethal kool-aid. This lethal mix is full of E. Coli, Hepatitis, Salmonella, and Cholera.  Check out this Baby bottle. Would you give your baby this interesting looking "tropical punch"

90% of the 42,000 deaths that occur every week from unsafe water and unhygienic living conditions are to children under five years old.  WE CAN PREVENT DISEASE!!!  The UN predicts that one tenth of the global disease burden can be prevented simply by improving water supply and sanitation. I am begging all my friends and family to check out this website and make a contribution to open a fresh water well that produces good clean water and eliminates lots of diseases.  Your money can go a long way. This company is legit! Arlene and I really want to spread the word. Everybody, let's help get rid of the mix of "lethal kool-Aid" Those who have already partnered or who support this, leave a comment to help others see the need of fresh water.
