God where are you @?....what's happening?

On a serious note, What is really happening to the world, to people, to both young and old? I have been reflecting on alot of stuff lately and i have noticed that God has all of a sudden become a BIG joke to the world. What happened to the days when as kids, it was friday but you were already disturbing mum about the preety dress she bought recently that you were going to wear on sunday? When you could not wait to go and get snacks from church and see your friends.....the times when you were first i the whole house to wake up from sleep on sunday morning (even before the security guard)? when you were all jumpy and excited on the thought that it was FINAAAAAAAAALY sunday! that was the time you had a big smile on your face through out the day and for some the next few days.It's really sad that many people that grew up i a christian family open their mouths today in sincerity to ask if God really exists. What happened to the days when you did not care on how true the fact that you were told "Jesus loves you" but as far as your sunday school teacher mentioned it, that settled it. Where did your faith go? Remember there was a point in your life when you did not have any complications on faith whatsoever the case may be or you believed God is good because the Bible said so.




Some days ago i was just on a little chill time with my girls when i saw this guy with about three ladies all to himself (and NO they were not his sisters i promise), he was feeling all sexy and fly with his sagged pants quarter-to-drop, chain blinging and such, i couldn't care less as that was the way he chose to live but what got my attention was the fact that he had a pink rosary on his neck (the catholic prayer bead) and he had a pink shirt on. I immediately thought to myself ' SWEET JESUS!!!the rosary has all of a sudden become a fashion accessory.' The next day, I was walking and i saw a t-shirt that read....



I understood it was created for comedy but what i still question is if the person really know what he was doing. It really isnt a funny issue that we no longer respect or have that 'fear' of God. Everyone wants to be 'big', it's sad that church is now looked down on. Few days ago i was talking to one of my girls on a video i saw on facebook titled 'don't waste your life',the conversation went along the lines of;
ME: i just watched a vid on facebook o! 'dnt wastee your life' did you see it?

HER: yeah! i was trying to watch it and it was just crap.

ME: You should see it o it reali makes sense, atleast itl make you ponder an set you back on track just as it did for me.

HER: okay lemme see it.......
(few mins later)

HER: abeg its preaching i dnt even get the point.

ME: it's a song o madam. But don't you sometymes feel like your wasting your life? i've been feeling like that lately. Like i know where i want to go when we rapture but is that really where i am going? i've been asking myself...

HER: Please jist me aanything abeg am bored.

ME: no i want to talk about this its important

HER: abeg!....Buzz me when you finish talking.
I could not believe this was the same person that i grew up with and we use to meet every sunday in church and have all the choreoraphed dances together. Inasmuch as we hate thinking about God, we should grow up and face it, he is REAL! I do not want to be stammering when God asks me what i did with my life on earth or what i did with the talent he gave me. It is very alright to be a christian and be cool. You do not have to be smoking the 'good stuff' and playing all the girls you set your eyes on to acquire that title. Life is a journey and not a destination, the destination will be determined when God has asked you all he wants to know and God forbid for God to look anyone reading this in the eye and say 'I never knew you' and cast you into the lake of eternal fire.

It's a choice you have. The same girl i was talking to told me that she has to live life now and when Judgement day comes, God will have mercy on her so what the hell. i did not battle with her because she knows what is right but she is making the effort to be 'cool' according to the worlds standards. What i cannot stand are double-faced girls. A girl that goes to the same school as me is 'supposed' to be good, her mother was to come visit (and she knew ho her momma trained her to be) and so she called me and was panting like she had jus seen a ghost to ask me if she could please come and keep some of her clubbing clothes in my room as her mother would tear her bum off if she sighted them. i was like why do you put yourself through this? is it really worth it? know who you are and live up to all your parents brought you up to be.

God listens!! he is actually waiting for many people to give him the wheels of their lives and sit back and let him take care of your journey. No matter how bad you may think you have been or what not, give him a brief chance to show himself off to you. So many hurdles you try to jump over but can't because God has not given you the strenght and you can't do it alone till you let him do his part. Get back to where you use to be. When you use to carry a big heart on your chest with a cross in the middle from your sunday school class to remind you that God loves you and actually gave his life up JUST for you.

  2. This post was WONDERFUL!!! seriously. Thank you for shining much needed light on such a topic. Your friend is just very ignorant and naive and I pray for her honestly. Being cool doesn't mean disregarding your religion and God. Okay even if you don't go to church like your suppose to, show respect when the topic is being discussed and the least you can do is just listen even if it comes through one ear and leaves the other!
