It's a Mad World
I am tragically upset right now. My basic feeling is insane frustration at this world. our world has gone so completely crazy and bad that we don't even stop to ask ourselves the most basic questions. we don't even consider the fact that maybe, maybe it's not just about us. we think about ourselves and how what we are doing feels, and if it feels good we go with it. if what we are doing is something we benefit from, something we enjoy, something we can get lost in from the pure joy of it, we don't think twice. what a wise plan satan has. think back. garden of eden, book of Genesis, why did Eve eat the apple, it looked good. why do we do what we do, it looks good. sex. drugs. money. popularity. it all looks good. satan isn't an idiot, he's conned us all into falling for anything that will trip us up, pull us away from God, make us forget all about why we are here and who made us and how much we are loved. my challenge for us is this. stop man. just stop. push pause. think twice. pray. just because it feels good, tastes good, sounds good, doesn't mean it is. and it's not just about you. anything and everything you do wil effect someone else whether you know it or not, whether it's instantly or takes centuries. you make a difference. and the choices you make on an everyday basis could change the world around you in more ways than you realize.

Honey I couldn't read this with the dark purple print against the black so I emailed it to myself. You are so right in what you said. Our sermon today was on how Satan has perverted the idea of "love." Which is exactly what you touched on. "True love" is something different than "love". Btw, you mother teacher talking..."effect" is used as a noun so usually has "the" in front of it. "Affect" as a verb usually does not have "the" in front of it. So, in your writing.."will affect..." Thank you for being sensible and thinking twice and for not being selfish!!! Love you! Momma
