WAKE UP!

Oh I get so mad at Christians.

Love people. No matter who they are, what they wear, who they voted for, what job they have or don't have, how they pay for their groceries, where they live, what they have done, who their friends are...I don't care what excuses there are, I don't really care. Love people. I'm so stinkin tired of typical Christians living this "la dee da" life, thinking they are so much better than others because of whatever CRAP reason. You're not better. I'm not better. Wake up! If you're life is comfortable, it's probably because you're not putting yourself out there for God. You should have some uncomfortable relationships, some uncomfortable financial situations, some uncomfortable decisions. Because then we're reaching out to those who need Christ, because then we're on our knees to God daily, because then we realize that this life is not our own.

AMEN! If life is too easy, it's probably because we're not allowing the Lord to try us and purify us through trials and difficulties.
Love,

Our Father does not call us to be comfortable in this world. We are pilgrims and strangers and are called to be HIS ambassadors.

Thank you for a very heartfelt reminder of that, Beth.

Love,
"The Other Beth"

Amen sister! I have felt that very same way and have let it effect my heart towards those comfortable Christians! I am working on that with the lords help, it is frustrating sometimes i know! Love the post, thanks for putting it out there as a reminder that we must love all, this is not a race for the best Christian award!ashley
