I started this blog because just like most good little Christian kids, I read my bible, went to church, and sang the same songs as everyone else, but as I went to school, it felt like the power behind my faith was gone. I've known in my heart it was not gone, but that's not what I've been acting like. Today, I want to ask my self and other Christians, "Why?"
If you are not a christian and reading this blog, I would like to tell you I AM SO SORRY. :( I am sorry that people walk past you in stores, and the halls at work and school, and don't show you the one thing that SHOULD make us difference. That is the peace whe have when we know we can rely on God.
I want this blog to involve everyone, Christian or not. I did not start this blog to point fingers at people who do not live it up. I am just as guilty. I started this blog to ask you what you think.
I am sharing my blog to let you know my theories behind why it seams like faith isn't working. I am not trying to make you believe my theories, because I'm not sure they are all right. Feel free to give me your honest oppinion on my theories, and give me your theories. Don't worry about how it sounds just give me your honesty.
I know exactly what you're saying! I too sometimes run hot or cold when it comes to living my faith, and I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I think for me, anyhow, its fear. Fear of repercussion. Fear of saying the wrong things and driving people further from Christ instead of toward him. Sometimes too, I think it may be just plain laziness. Its sooo much easier to be passive sometimes. And that, according to all I believe in my heart and what is written in God's Word is just plain wrong. Thanks for making me think of this today Kimberly! I think I need to refocus again.
