Navigators (Souled Out)
at Long Beach State |
|
Our desire is to know Him and to make Him known, to live transparent lives, to live in the light of eternity, to live unashamed of the gospel, to live passionately and recklessly with a holy fire that will ignite all who are around us. We want to be souled out. Souled out for the Truth, souled out for the eternal residence of those around us, souled out for the cross, souled out for the Name above all Names. Being souled out is not just a commitment or a choice, rather it is a life portrayed by an action based faith striving to give those around us an eternal perspective, an investment in eternity. Living souled out is not where we should be someday. It is where we must be now! Carpe diem. Act now. Just do it! God wants you to break out now. He wants you to jump on it now. He wants to show you His face now. God wants you to experience Him in a way that goes beyond feelings and manifests itself in a life changed and souled out forever. There is no going back. Do you want to have life and have it to the full, or exist only for the next fix, the next smile? No! You want more! Step up, step out, and step into a life that will affect eternity. To live is Christ. So live passionately, live transparently, live with a holy fire, live Souled Out.

Our generation is
being taken captive by shallow habits and unfulfilling activities. As
individuals, they seek to be filled, yet they look in all of the wrong places.
We need to help them, draw them in, and direct them to encounter God. However,
the Christian of today seems to be content with some of the same habits and
activities. „We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and
ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go
on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the
offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased. We need to change.
We want more. Deep down you know it! We must be different. An explosion needs to
take place in our passion for Jesus Christ. We have permission to live for God.
Just do it! You don‚t need to ask. God says, Yes! He screams, Now! Let Him break
you, let Him mold you; let Him shape you into a hardcore chaser of Jesus Christ.
God Chasers are who we are.
