Why would you ever prefer death? I mean living out your life here on planet earth with a skull and crossbones attitude. Why would you do that? Why wouldn’t you rather find, fill, and drink from the cup of life? Could it be…

…that the source of Life, Jesus (your Creator btw) is a stumbling block?

His story, His book (the Bible) says this is true. He’s a stumbling block to anyone who’d rather be his own king…or her own queen. In other words, if you simply prefer to serve self and seek to have everyone else serve your “self”, then the story of Jesus will be only that. A story. A fairy tale. And it won’t be a story you’ll enjoy. In fact, it’ll be a story that will annoy or even anger you. The Truth has a way of doing that.

But hey…feel free to go it your own way. Be your own king. We all have to choose something or someone to believe in. I wouldn’t dare to even try to force you to accept my choice in the matter. Hopefully you’ll give me the same courtesy. Still…when push comes to shove comes to eternity…where do you suppose you’ll be? In a cool bar with all your best drinkin’ buddies? Maybe on some other world in another part of the galaxy playin’ golf on a neon turf? Or maybe you just figure it’s all gonna be a black hole of nothingness. Well, like I said…everybody has to believe something.

As for me…

I want a good, long drink from the cup of life.

“You wanna live the way you wanna live.
You wanna be your own king.
You think you’re wise enough to rule your world
And handle everything.”       (excerpt from my song, “Worldliness“)

Stay tuned…
