i just want to hide. just hide away where no one can find me. it'd be better because then i don't have to always please people. and it doesn't matter what i look like, or if everyone's happy, or if i've made people laugh. i could just devote my time to Jesus.
psalm 40:1-4 i waited patiently for the LORD; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps. He has put a new song in my mouth--praise to our God; many will see it and fear, and will trust in the LORD. blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, and does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
titus 3:9-11 but avoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless. reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition, knowing that such a person is warped and sinning, being self-condemned.
psalm 14:1-3 the fool has said in his heart, 'there is no God.' they are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none who does good. the LORD looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God. they have all turned aside, they have all together become corrupt; there is none who does good, no, not one.
a case of "don't cast your pearls before swine". but how do you know if you've tried enough? i guess i don't really have to worry about it...i mean, i'm that person who would rather show people that i'm a Christian instead of being like, "i'm a Christian everyone!". actions speak louder than words.
i work with this guy who's an atheist, and he knows i'm a Christian, and he sees that i try not to be a hypocrite, yet he doesn't care about God, nor does he have any interest in asking questions. we have a mutual respect for each other, so i don't push my convictions and he doesn't push his ideas. i'm guessing he's the metaphorical swine in this situation...seeing as though he doesn't wanna listen to me. it sucks...because i think he would be my perfect match if he wasn't so...so ignorant!!
...i gotta remember that God has someone for me.
gosh, it sucks to be alone sometimes. i say "alone" as if i have no one...i have my family, of course. and Jesus!!
[ C.S. Lewis ]
A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.
