MY FAITH

today as justin, his friend rebekah (correct?) and me were walking to somerset, they suddenly started talking about joy's (another of justin's friend) faith. super strong faith. justin told me she was willing to be dis-owned and all by her family if it meant staying true to her faith. that made me think.

i look at myself and see someone who is extremely lucky and yet un-grateful. i was born into a christian family. i didn't have to go through parental or family objection. i didn't have to sneak off to church. i was placed in church. i grew up there. and yet here i am, going back to church on a very erratic basis and not commiting enough of my time to God. i feel bad. because when i look at people like joy, who are willing to risk all for God, i reflect and ask myself if i'd do the same. would i? would my faith stand firm in times of utmost peril? i ask myself that. and i thank God that i know him. because He's always there. even for someone who isn't always here for Him.

so i just want to say. thank you justin's friend (joy) for making me re-think my attitude towards God.
and thank you Lord. cause with you, i feel safe. no matter what happens.


i changed my blogsong. it's now Don't Leave Home by Dido.
this song is really meaningful. the lyrics may sound selfish, but it's a beautiful song.



if you're cold, i'll keep you warm.
if you're lost, just hold on.
cause i will be your safety.
oh oh oh,
don't leave home.
