Mauled in a bear trap...

Trying to live by God's truth sometimes hurts
Sometimes a lot

Sometimes when you love someone with God's truth - the truth you lead them to hurts
Sometimes they choose to not love you anymore

But I want to be that friend...

Because the other kind of friend compliments your hair while ignoring the fact that your leg is mauled in a bear trap

Seriously...
Who wants to be that friend?

  2. I constantly struggle with this...I don't want to call them out to the point where they're like "stop preaching" and just reject what I say completely and ignore me for awhile or forever. I'm always afraid of the fact that with some people I think you might get one chance to show them the light, so I don't want to ruin it. One word can be the deciding factor. For example; Yesterday I saw this video of Oprah and it scared me to death because it was the very thing that I was already afraid of that happened to her. She said in her late twenties while attending a baptist church in her hometown, she said "I was all into the service and music until I heard the pastor say something I never though he would..the pastor told me that God was a jealous God..." she said it stopped her in her tracks and ever since that word, shes been "looking" for a god that was all about love, not jealousy. She doesn't believe Christ is the only way anymore and that is what Im soo afraid of. I guess I just have so much love for ppl that If I have anything to do with it, I dont want anyone in the world to reject Christ in my lifetime..I want to save em' all! So let me know what you think.

    This chris p by the way lol I had to put it as an anonymous profile to post my comment
