30 days :)

Tonight I did my 30 days bit and reading the bible while eating doritos, just some fun info I thought to add :)
Ephesians 5:15-17
"So be careful how you live. Don't live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. Don't act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do."
-- To me this is pretty powerful as well, but they all have been so far.. so yeah.
This is saying to me, Don't live like worldly people do, because you knwo the difference, live your life the way that God wants you to live it, and then when people ask you why, tell them. Prove, and show to people how God wants them to live especially when you call yourself a christian.
Like this story just makes me livid.
Michael's sister, the one that lives with him(we havn't come up with a name)took a picture with one of her friends, the one that starts with a K and only comes to church every once in a while. In our church bathroom with them flipping up their middle fingers, and her friend decided to post it on facebook. All the time Michaels sister says how great she is doing with God, granted this was like a month ago and people do change! But if she was going around saying that then (whcih I am pretty sure she was) then her telling her friend that, and then flipping up the middle finger, is basically her saying to her friend "it's okay to do this while you are a Christian." Now, listen to the poor message that is giving her.

Not to point fingers though, beacuse I know a lot of Christians fall in the devils trap like this.. sometimes I do.. but for the most part I haven't done anything like that in while.

This whole thing reminds me of what I pray everymorning before I even get out of bed
"God please help me to be a light that shines people onto your path, help me to give people your seeds, and to be an example of you all day."
It's a great prayer really, and sometimes it helps.. I will go into that in tomorrows bloggy post.. I am tired.
