Back to Blogging

It's almost been a year since I blogged last. Shout out to my main man Cole for getting me back into doing this. I forgot how much I enjoyed it.

Recently I have really gotten into bartering. I watched the show Barter kings, and all of a sudden thought I could pull this off. I think a lot of times in our own personal lives we do this with our physical lives. We'd love to be part of this big overarching club of Christianity, but refuse to give ourselves to it wholeheartedly. I look at the church today, myself included, and wonder how we are all going to make it. I look inside myself and many times see a hypocrite, and a judgmental jerk of a person. But I think that's the point. I think that's what Jesus was driving at. We are awful people that are hypocrites, addicts, thiefts, etc. But with the power of Christ we can change. And i know I can change. I think today I should start becoming more determined to give my life wholeheartedly to Christ.

My great grandma died last night. And on top of that I'm ready a book called Don't Waste Your Life by John Piper, who might i add, is a true man of God. Anyhow, it's got me thinking a lot in the last 24 hours about how we only have a short time, and that we should make sure in those final moments that we lived all out for the Glory of God. I know I've wasted some time, but I know I can do better. I'm glad I've revisited my old blog, even if no one reads it.

I think my next post will be on something that I've been thinking long and hard about. I know this wasn't about much, but I wanted to put it in writing.
