real talk...

ok..i get it..its hard to be a christian. im not perfect. my friends arent perfect. my pastors arent perfect. but God is. honestly..i havent been thinkin about god all that much these past few days..maybe weeks..idk. but you know..that doesnt change who god is. the bible says that god will always be the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. what does that say? whenever we dont "feel" god or his presence..it is us not him. he will always be the same wonderful, awesome, amazing, merciful, graceful god. it is us. sometimes we blame god for not being able to feel him. we say "man god where are you?" ..i bet he is saying "right here my child." you know why its hard to feel god? because we have a sin issue in our life. oh man did i just say that?!! christians sin?!?!?! thats right..we sin..alot. its funny becasue some chritians say "oh no i dont sin"...we thats sin right there...pride. when we sin..we should never be too proud to admit and confess it. we think..but what will he think about me after i tell him that i did this or that? shut up! the bible says if we hide our sin it was be brought to light. it will also embarrass us. so you can either do it the hard way or the easy way. either way..god is still god.

im reminded of a story..this guy and this girl were dating and the guy had the old trucks with only one row of seats. not 50 like nowaday. lol. anyways. they were young and in love. it was fresh and real. when they would ride in this truck the girl would sit right next to her boyfriend instead of sitting in the passanger seat. they eventully married and as time went on..they slowly seperated. until one day the wife was reminded of thier good ol' days of snuggling all close when they would ride together. she asked her husband "what happened..why dont we do that anymore?" the husband responded.."i havent gone anywhere." OUCH!! wow..

its funny becasue that is just like god..us christians get bored with our walk with god and we seperate ourselves from him. we sin a little here and there because "it wont hurt anybody"..we read our bible once a week..we pray only when we need something..man..that sucks..no wonder we cant feel god. dont live in the grey with god. dont play with the creator of the universe..if you play with fire you will get burned.

always pray and read your bible..even if you dont feel like it.
always attend church..even if you dont feel like it.
because that fact alone
you know.."we dont feel like it"
should be enough proof we are slipping from god
i tell you this
if you are bored with god
you are not doing something right.
get out your comfort zone.
love people.
love more people.
becasue god will always be god.
whether we change or not.
