People who claim to be open-minded or "freethinkers" (the newer trendier term) will throw their opinions in your face but if you choose to simply disagree and to speak the truth with love they will defend themselves like a starving pit bull defends its last piece of kibble.... even if you are not provoking it! It's absurd to me how people will try to make you feel like what you believe in is the craziest, dumbest thing they have ever heard. They can believe whatever they want, but you can't think for yourself. Unless your opinions match, you are the stupid one. I swear I feel like I'm in highschool again but on a much grander scale. It's like our generation thinks it's "cool" to be controversial. It's trendy to be an Existentialist. You can't make up your mind on what you believe in so you're just going to say "I don't believe in anything"? That's a cop-out not to mention lame.
The saddest part is those who think that this life is all there is. If I truly believed that, then I would probably be acting like so many of them do...not caring whatsoever about decisions I made because if what they believe is true....what's the point? What a heartbreaking life without hope. But thankfully I have found the hope of knowing that there IS a God who loves each of us and has created a place for us so that we can live in his love forever! And that is the only reason I am passionate about life issues. Because what we do here on earth DOES matter. We could be leading others to the Lord or we could be the very reason they turn from Him all by our actions and words. That is the whole purpose of us being here to begin with....to seek out those who are lost and help them to be found. This life is NOT all there is. Think of Heaven as a huge party where you want to invite all of your friends. How you invite them is by telling them the Who, What, When & Where...
Who: Jesus wants YOU!
What: Join him in celebrating God's love
When: Starting now, today, and forever
Where: The ceremony is in your heart with a reception following in Heaven! :)
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
