If You're Too Cool...

If you're too cool to come to church, then why come? I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about the kids who come with their friends and have never been. No, that's not it at all. I'm talking about the same group of kids, who have been to church forever, and know exactly how to act. But I guess knowledge means nothing, because they sure don't act like they should. No, Fools is more like it. It's gotten ridiculous and out of hand. On wednesday nights, I see the same group of kids, who think they're too good to listen to the lesson, and assume they just know everything there is to know about God, and just sit and laugh and talk and stare at everyone else when worship's going on. They're constantly laughing and talking and texting during the lesson, and the invitational is just a mere time to sit there and be respectful for about ten seconds before leaving. So what's the point of even going? I mean, you're obviously way too good to listen or even act like you care. You don't give any one else who wants to worship respect, especially God. Realize that this is God's house. Not "your church". You spit in God's face when you act like that. But i guess you're to wrapped up in your own selfishness to realize it. It's really ridiculous. If you just want to hang out and chat, go to the mall, the movies, a restaurant, anywhere! I'm tired of the fact that by you not setting an exmaple, or even just being quiet, you could be letting someone's life slip through your fingers. If you just really don't care that much, then all I can do is pray for you and hope that you change. So if you're reading this, I challenge you to take this next step. Even if you think "well maybe that's me." "that's not me at all." or "how dare she right that about me, I want you to take my challenge. For the next week, until next Wednesday night, I want you to pray that God gives you an attitude of worship. I challenge you to pray that you have the strength to pay attention,and be quiet. I challenge you to pray that maybe if this isn't you, the people who it is, will see the error of their ways, and then fix it. Go ahead and take my challenge. I promise you, my God is a God of miracles. Let him show off his work.

Hangover? Not so much.

Well the year is finally here. 2008 came in with a boom of fireworks for me last night around midnight, and I had a blast! But I'm looking at other things, and I feel really bad for people today. My first day of 2008, I spent with my best friend and some other friends eating mexican food and then seeing a movie. Super fun! But alot of other people I know, spent their day holding the trash can to their face and feeling miserable because they have a hangover. And you really want me to feel sorry for you? You aren't old enough to drink, and it's not cool anyway. But whatever. It's just obnoxious how people make this huge deal about this is the year to change. The new you. Etc, etc. Really now? Because all I see is the same person in yet another year.
