Let's face it, sometimes people are like Hemorrhoids. They are a pain in the ass. Not every person that you know will lead you to succeed. Some of them will lead to you failing time, after time, after time. I have had to kick people out of my close circle of friends because they make me stupid. Why would I want to let someone that I know drag me down to their level instead of trying to lift me up towards God's level?
Are your friends hemorrhoids? Do they constantly burn and itch? Bad example. Do they point you to someplace good, or do they push you to be crazy, psychotic, stupid morons?
I constantly evaluate whether or not people that I know will bring me to success or failure. I have kicked close friends, and even family, from my circle. Why? BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO BE DRAGGED DOWN BY STUPID PEOPLE!!
I want to have God use my life for His glory and that is really hard to do when the people around me make me crazy. Have the guts to get some hemorrhoid cream and get rid of the itch. God will BLESS you for doing it. Plus, you won't look uncomfortable all the time.

God Challenge
When was the last time God asked you to give up something? I am not talking about God saying, "Don't watch porn" or "Stop sleeping with that person who is not your spouse." Those things are a given if you are a Christ follower. I am talking about fasting from something so that you can focus on God. What is fasting? Fasting is where you purposefully give something up so that you can focus on prayer and God. You can fast from food, television, movies, sports, fishing, hunting, words, or anything else you can think of. You are telling God that it is more important to seek Him then to do these other things.
So when was the last time you fasted? Here is the challenge: find something that you will give up for a period of time so that you can focus on praying for The Crossing. Pray that God will increase the capacity of the church and that God will change more lives in this next year then ever before. Pray that you can have God's heart for Elk River. Pray that you can know God more.
Seek God and He will answer.
