"There came a man who was sent from God: his name was john. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so thaty through him all men might believe. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light." --John 1:6-8

I was pretty shocked myself.
Have a great day!
Think about it… its hard to be yourself everyday, every second, every moment… right! Your not alone, its hard for people like you and me we call “normal” to a Christian 24/7… Yes, putting on that shirt that tells others I am a Christian in the public’s eyes… We could be stuck between to places looking back and forth hoping the answer would appear before us. Come on this is reality; we need to put God’s armor and take the shield to stand before the public’s eyes as we follow Christ in this temporary home we call the world. So are you sure your life is harder than ours? Who said that Christians have an easy life?
Christians don’t have the perfect world, although we wished we were perfect like God, but we fall short in that goal… because were human. But if your have a hard time beginning you than STOP and just be yourself first. Second, forget what the world and others say and think about you… after all you human and just accept what God has given you and ignore the crowds in the background. Third, take life the way it is… meaning don’t try to make it what it should be, that time of change will come soon.
So if you’re still thinking others have life easy and that your life is the hardest to live… lets pray together. Father give me one day at a time, give me the strength to deal with life issues and trials. Father give me wisdom and hope in each day that I my know you more and more… reminded me to find the positive in each stressful moment and use your wisdom to deal with it, in Jesus name – AMEN!
