Lately God seems to have been putting some stuff on my heart. like you know when yer just drivin or sitting in class and you just think about stuff? well lately all i can really think about is how my friends and some family are lost. I think Hes really giving me a burden for the lost.and like most people who get preached at get angry because they think the person preaching is just trying to "push their beliefs on you" . and that is the case sometimes.(not everyone has it right) But for the most part...and for me. its a serious burden and like you actually hurt for the person that you are thinking about. Ive even wept for my friends before. its crazy man. sometimes its like watching some drowning... and the life buoy is in their reach but they just arent grabbing it. some people think that everything is just going fine and they can get along fine trying to fill their void with things of this world. But time will prove to them that it just doesnt work. or sometimes they run out of time and its too late to change their ways. its so hard to grasp sometimes that there really is a heaven and hell.But no matter what you think say or do on this earth... one day you will realize that all this is real and hopefully youll be right with God. No matter how many cool things to do there may seem to be on this earth, nothing is worth eternity. i mean seriously just sit down and think sometime about what is after your death... is having a great life here (which we all know is short) worth suffering? The Bible says that we(christians) will be hated and im just now grasping that. but i realize it and i can accept it.
isnt it weird how... when someone voices their opinion about something, usually people just accept it and are like... whatever, thats cool... but for some reason with christianity it seems people get more defensive and come against and poke fun at it than any thing else. sorry im just thinking and typing.
this is really long but there will be more. im pretty tired.
