Journey to man hood
Journey to man hood is something I don't think I have fully gone thru yet, not had very much guidance in this area and have suffered in certain areas of my life because of this. At this point in my life i am praying for God to father me into this journey and I am feeling God move so strongly in my life Im praying for a yielded heart so as to be guided by the spirit of God, praying for that awesome journey, the kind that only God can take you down. Something that has help me tremendously is a book by John Eldredge called Fathered by God

War
Recently I have been reading a series of books from John Eldredge, (I'm currently in the fathered by God book), teaching us how to become men like God intended for us to be and thru the course of all thing I'm asking God to father me into manhood and of course as I draw closer to God the enemy is waging war against me spiritually, and all the while God has placed a longing in my heart, not quite sure if it is a calling or what but, I feel so strongly about it that I must seek it out. There is a part in the book that stands out, so much so that I almost started to sob, he quotes a passage from the bible Ecclesiastes 3:7-12 (NIV)
[8] a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. And I feel like God spoke to me at that moment about the current war against terrorism that USA is waging. See I feel that this war has a deeper meaning than what some people think , I feel that the main stream media would like most to believe that this war is about oil, but I feel that it is not I feel like God is saying hey the USA is a nation that was founded by Christians our constitution and government is based on Christian principals and even thou we may not view the USA as a Christian nation anymore, but I'm here to tell you that there churches and people all over this nation everyday praying for this country, our leaders and our armed services and I tell you God is moving in this nation, stirring the hearts of many, stirring my like nothing I have ever felt before, I believe we are on the verge of a great awaking, and there are other countries that see this, thats y I feel like God is saying hey this war is not about oil this war is about Christians and Islam. It's no secret that Islam religion would like to rid the world of Christian so they can usher in there "messiah" which I and many other Christians believe will be our Antichrist. And I think that is y that passage hit me so hard. Let's continue to pray for this country and it leaders and our protectors.
