Understanding

~Understanding~ I don’t understand, Why duct tape fixes everything, Why chicken soup always makes you feel better. Why chocolate makes you fat. Most of all I don’t understand, Why people can’t forgive. Grudges are held, Hate is heated, Light goes to black, Friends to enemies, Instruments fade away and voices get louder. What I understand the most is, When we forgive, Grudges are let go, Hate cools, Sun comes back, Enemies become friends, What I hear is music to my ears.

Trusting people!

How can you prove to some one that you mean what you say? You can say the same thing over and over bit they still might not listen to you. Benjermen Franklin has a simple answer. He said, "People may doubt what you say, but they will alway believe what you do." What Mr. Fanklen is saying is that to fain someones trust you have to show them, not jsut tell them. I can promise my mom that I'll clean my room but, that promise means nothing until I actually do it .......oops! lol We can also apply this to our lives as Christians. In order to get people to listen to us we have to show them what we are different. If we say we are different because of Christ then go get drunk, our actions will speak louder than words. So next time you say you will do something, DO IT! ( yes I need to clean my room). Next time you say you are different, PROVE IT! If you do this, over time more and more people will trust you more and more and let me tell ya, having people trust you is a gre

Stress

It's closing in all around me, Coming closer I can hardly see. There's a 10 pound weight on my chest, Seriously you're lucky I'm even dressed. I'm stuck in a mess, This little thing called stress. All the voices getting loud, I wish I could float away on a cloud. A smile every where I go, The things I deal with no one will ever know. I want to sink down deep, Into an ever lasting sleep. Never to rise, And face the endless lies. I don't understand, Why am I always the one getting slammed? I know every one else has bad problems too, But they all seem to have a matt, jack, or sue. My friends see me glow, So many things, would they care to know? I reach for someone with which my pain to share, But as I reach the only thing I feel is air. At the end there used to be hope, But now I see NOTHING that can help me cope. With the pain inside, Little by little I have died. Now there's barely anything there, How can I continue to bear? Someone is throwing a dart, Right

different people

I just finished reading a book (bright purple by melody carlson) it is absolutely amazing. It's part of a series that deals with hard issues for teens today. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL OF THEM! This one was about homosexuals. Basically this girls best friend tells her she is a lesbian. She has to work through all her fear, anger, confusion, and hate. By the end of the book she comes to realize that while homosexuality is a sin Jesus still wants us to love and accept the person though not the sin. Do you remember that story in the bible where the prostitute is about to get stoned and Jesus of all people comes to her defense? "Let you who have no sin cast the first stone." Basically he is the only one that could do that. He saved this lady's life by loving her. She changed and they all went on ladedodeda. No it doesn't always happen like that, sometimes people don't change, things don't always work out. Now you might be thinking, "well I am not a homosexual
