I'm gonna be completely honest. I'm not holding anything back. Why can't people be honest with themselves and others? As a christian, I have so much to be happy about. I have so much to be thankful for. At the same time, sometimes I feel broken. My heart breaks for people. How can I be happy when there are so many people in the world are filled with hate? I can look at my life and see how blessed I am, but what about everyone else. What about the people so caught up in sex, drug, alcohol, porn, money, religion, and themselves that they have a miserable life? What about those people that are hurting so bad they don't even want to live anymore? My heart breaks for them. There are so many people in the world that have nothing else to look forward to after death, let alone happiness in this life. Why are we not telling them? If we are, why are they not listening? People say that one man can't cange the world, but I beg to differ. Jesus did. Ok. He was also God, but he said that all thing we seen him do we can also do, through the power of God. What are we missing?
Why do we try to hide so much inside of us? Just be honest with everyone! If someone is struggling with something we also struggle with, tell them. Work things out together with help from God. Lift others up that are going through things you already made it through. Don't put up your nose, point you finger, and say "you should know better." Who are you to judge them? You went through the same thing. Help them! Pray with them. Pray for them. Lift them up and tell them they will make it. I'm just tired of people tearing others down. I'm happy, but at the same time I'm broken. God help me see how you see.
I struggled for years with alcohol and drugs. I'll be honest about it. Only by the grace of God did I come out of it. I'm not saying that to lift me up. I'm saying that to lift what God can do up. God can bring you out of anything. He makes the impossible, possible. He makes the dirty clean. When you come to God, come just as you are. Even if your dirty, nasty, hung over, addicted, and ready to end it all. God will pick you up, clean you off, and put you on his way. I'm tired.....
