There are so many things that my life could continue without. To name them all would take far to long, but I must say I am privileged be posting this on my sister's computer(because mine isn't home right now) I have become to accustomed to life. To familiar with comfort. And I long for one thing more. Do these wants ever end?
In Sunday School today Lamar talked about how disconnected our youth group has become. I wonder why that happened, was it through the leadership, or the people themselves, or could it be societies fault? (note the sarcasm) It breaks me to see the way that people are treated within the body of Christ. Are we so unwilling to make ourselves uncomfortable that we degrade anyone who is different? We strike out at our brothers and sisters to the point that simply ignoring them would be less painful. We are truly ungrateful. If we did not have freedom to live in christ without fear of persecution would you openly mock your fellow Christians? And yet that is what we do. Day in and day out we persecute ourselves. We do not need any government to tear us apart, we can do that ourselves.
Why must you blind yourselves to what you are doing? As you are confronted with these you laugh and talk about irrelevant events. Do you even listen to the words that are flowing out of aching hearts? Is it your ears or your hearts that are closed?
And we are yet young... why do we persecute?
