hypocrites

i think we're all surrounded by them. at times, we're guilty of being one ourselves.


i do wonder during this time of economic unrest, not to mention political strife and change; what does the Church have to say to this? 

do we jump into the bandwagon and try to make a quick buck in quick-fix instances? do we resist the change and dig in our heels and "bear the suffering" that was "ordained" by God? how about going to the other side of the spectrum and champion rights and be the voice of opposition and perhaps rebellion to a certain extent?

everything boils down to four words: you have a choice.

when things are going bad spiritually and you see your own spiritual leaders stumble, falter and perhaps display themselves as fools, what is your response today? we usually react with anger due to disappointment. but folks, no one is perfect. one day, we will have to tell God ourselves how we've spent our lives on earth.

i don't expect anyone from my church to understand the things and people that I have invested my heart into at my work place. no one really understands what it means to be a teacher in a homeschooling center until they themselves have started working in that place and experience for themselves how it really is. 

i don't believe either in making a fast income. Amway, MLM or other stuff, at the end of the day is not my cup of tea. the money earned is a circulation of funds and its just something that i have no passion for honestly.

what motivates you today? the Message or the money? its a harsh world out there, fellow christians : ) blessing someone with a business... does it involve tainting it with a desire to make money at the expense of a friendship? whatever happened to believing in job security from God and also financial stability through divine blessings?

am i preaching to you? if you feel so.... fact is, I wasn't preaching to you. I was just airing my thoughts. but if it still does make some sense and strike a chord within you... then go and pray about it. 

im not out to condemn. im just making a decision to stop being a hypocrite and start being brutally honest with myself.
