Who needs air??

"Who Needs Air" is an incredible song by a band called "The Classic Crime".
It just hits me in the most amazing way every time i hear it. 

"I'm drowning, but I don't care. Cause when you've got what I got, what i got... Who needs air?"

This song is saying in the deepest of ways, what what your friends and other people say about you is not important. That you should put yourself out there and give it all up for God. That having him is more important than the air we breathe. Because, when you have God, what more do you need? 

"When God is for us, Who can be against us?"

Sorry this is so short, but I have class now. haha

Keep reading!!

Hate the sin, Love the sinner

You know how people always say that getting rich changes a person? And they usually mean negative things? Well, after spending this last weekend with my dad, and thinking about my mom, I have realized that, so does Christianity. And not always in a positive way.
 Christians are supposed to be loving, and forgiving. As a Christian, I feel I have developed these attributes. But i cannot tell you how many times I see christian bashing on other people. Gays, Blacks, Obama.... The list in continuous. And what is ridiculous is how all these people call themselves christian, when they are not showing it in the deepest way God intended. There is no love. Christians bash on gay people ALL THE TIME, and its about time it came to a stop. Hate the sin, love the sinner. Thats what we should be doing. Instead, we hate the sinner. We take what a person has done, and make it who they are. 
Like the lines in a movie once said, "Its not what you do that defines you, but how you do it." And what you do with what you know. If you know that you are supposed to Love, then do it. Don't just love those who do good to you. Don't just love those you know are chrisrians, or those who are doing good to help our country. LOVE THEM ALL. Love the gays, the murderers, the rapists, the prostitutes. Love them, for we are COMMANDED by God to do so. 

Love them all, and do it well.

Understandably impossible...

Sometimes, i can't understand how we are. I don't mean. like how we were created, thats blaringly obvious to me. What i don't understand is, how in the world can we be the way we are as people, when others bring so much light to our lives? 
Even those who don't understand and know the love of God should be able to see it. I mean, there are so many people out there who have some sense of the world, and can understand that there is something more. There has to be.
Would it even make sense for us to exist if there wasn't a creator? Or a bigger plan? How did it all start? Even if you are an evolutionist, where did it all start? Don't be thinking about the "big bang theory", because thats not even close to the answer I'm looking for. I mean where did that start? Even if it is true, there had to be some way it was created. Some beginning. Everything has a beginning.
Everything, that is, except God. But, for some odd reason, I can understand that. I don't know how, but that is easier for me to grasp than thinking that the "Big Bang" has just been reoccurring for years and years. It makes no sense. It had to start somewhere.
But I think i know. It started with God. And i think it is easier to grasp, because I know that God is a being. I know that He is more than a figment of imaginations, as some people seem to think. And i know that He is more than just an excuse for mankind to find purpose.
And don't ask me how I can be so sure. I don't understand it. I just know, somehow, even through all my doubts and all my thoughts that somehow, somewhere, there is God. He is there, and He does love us. Every single one of us. 

Even when we don't love him back....
