Ponderings

So, Lately I've been thinking about why God has my family at the church we are at now. Things there have been hard and hurtful. We've been there little over a year, and I have yet to form a real bond with anyone there...especially in my age group.

Being a preacher's kid isn't all it's cracked up to be. Eventhough I'm in college I still live at home, and I feel it's important to go to our church whether or not I want to, because it's important to me to support my dad. People in the church have a tendency to forget me, and also to not realize how hurtful it is to me when people are malicious towards my family. I count too.

Things at church are very unstable. The focus isn't where it shoud be. There needs to be more focus on God, and less on starting problems. i don't understand why we can't all leave eachother alone, and focus on the only thing that matters...Jesus.

I know no one reads this, considering i just started it, but if there is someone out there, please pray for my family and for our church.

This is the first time i've been able to be on this subject and not want to fly off the handle.

i don't wish ill will on any of the church members (nice people or the mean ones), I just want to see God's will done, and people being at church for the right reason, and realizing that God is in charge, not them.

Someday this will all make sense. Until then, I'll keep pokin' along.

Let's Try This

So I'm thinking that I'm needing to find somewhere other than xanga to post. I may dual post between here and xanga, or I may just write different things on here. Who knows.

So as everyone probably knows, we are in the middle of election time. i don't know about anyone else, but the mudslinging campaigns here in Nashville are REALLY getting out of control. The candidates seem more interested in bad mouthing their opponents rather than telling people what they stand for. I, for one, don't appreciate this and think it's a total waste of time. I almost feel like running for congress and telling people i'm just in the race so there is someone who is honest, has nothing to hide, and isn't going to make others out to be satan. But we all know that i'm not eligible to run, so oh well.

That's about it for now. Maybe more later.
