When I was driving home so many things were running through my head...what would have happened if they came down the hill? So many factors were involved...then I wondered well what are those people really like? Do they have a good home-life...probably not, since they're out on the street threatening innocent people. Things like this really make me step back and look at the bigger picture of life. Why is it that now in this world you can't step out of your home at night without fearing for your own safety? I feel so many different emotions right now and it's hard to sort them all out. I feel: angry because those people had to ruin our good time, we were having such a blast and they couldn't just leave us alone; sad because I know those people are lost and they need help; I feel helpless...because there is nothing I can do to stop these things from happening. People are who they are...you can't change them. My heart goes out to people in need. In need of family, food, shelter, love, kindness, someone who they can talk to...but most of all those who need Christ. I feel so lucky to know that when all else fails I have God on my side. He is there to protect me, love me and guide me. I know that He will always be there when others will not. Family and friends are wonderful to have but I have learned from past experiences that you can not put full faith in them if you do not have full faith in God. If you only rely on those people there will come a time in your life when they will fail you. Sometimes, it's not their fault...most of the time it's not their fault...we are human beings and we make mistakes...if God wanted us to be perfect he would have made us that way.
I guess all we can do is pray...
