WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!
I know sometimes I have unrealistic expectations, but seriously, what are ya doing? I tend to see the best in people and see them for what they could be based off what they've shown to me, so I know it is in them. The thing is, it's like these people dont see it themselves. They continue to choose to act less than they truly are. They give in to worldly things, they are double-minded, they refuse to grow up, they hear and believe but they don't act, and they are just plain old lazy and don't wanna do what's hard and what might truly test them. I know it is not easy... but try! Why do people say one thing, and do another. Or portray one image only to really be living the life of another. You cannot be a true Christian and participate in worldly activities... how is that being a follower of God... ummm its NOT! You can't have your cake AND eat it too! Sorry, it just doesn't work that way. You have got to make a committment and stand/stick to it. Oh sorry to the male readers out there, I know committment is something hard for you guys to grasp, but grow up and be the MAN God meant for you to be. Sure it is hard, you have to lead... and Im sorry that is your burden to bear, but be a MAN and bear it... God is there to help.. and He also graciously gave you a helper... WOMAN!
I am sick of seeing my friends say/act one way(especially around me) and then go off and drink, party, go places they shouldn't, say inappropriate things, not make an effort to go to church, and just really do whatever they please whenever they want. IM SICK OF IT! You are lying to yourself... you think you are fooling me and God??? HA thats a load of poo! Who you are in the dark is who you really are! What are you doing when you think no one is looking? You know I will accept everyone... I always have... but I just don't understand why people and unfortunately close friends think they can be one way around me and then think I dont really know who you are (sorry technology has given us myspace and facebook - and people post pics and gossip). You should never give anyone a reason to doubt where you allegiance lies!!!!! Please just be honest with me and yourself. I would much rather be a friend to someone who can be who they are all the time even if who you are is not a follower of God... rather than one who is pretending to be a follower of God. I have a good mind to not talk to you people anymore... wow wouldn't that narrow down my friends. Im not perfect and I dont pretend to be.. I struggle with things.. mostly inwardly rather than outwardly.. but Im not gonna lie about it. I am a sinner just like everyone else Im not gonna hide it, but I will not let it take over. I believe we must constantly be taking steps to growing closer to God... cant do that in a bar... or surrounding yourself with provacative and sexual media.
Oh goodness I am preaching now, but I cant help it... my eyes were open to see several of my close friends differently... and I am left wondering if there really are true Christians out there. Do people still hold true to their standards anymore?? Or will we all gradually just throw them out the door? Man what will the world look like in 5 to 10 years... Im afraid. I am just thankful this world is not my home...
