So I'm just going to apologize and hope you all still read what I write.
Lets pick up here....
Health Care
Glen Beck being...Glen Beck
Getting a van (call me about that one)
Listening to Rap music lately
Getting work here and there
Oh and I really want to leave and go do stuff for people without the comforts I have daily.
And to go off that, I want to start with rough seasons of life....
I am in a very strange and foreign place, still....
A place I obviously don't belong....that's intended to be deeper then Clovis CA
But beyond that I want to be apart of any solution in the world right now.
This takes us as humans, dropping what we posses, and give.
That doesn't mean you need to give money to the poor or serve little kids in orphanages.
Although those things are great, not all of us may be in that place.
Myself...I'm not in place to give anything financially for example.
So as humans we pity ourselves and say there is nothing we can do....for whatever reasons.
Well the good news is that you can
Have you ever thought about giving yourself to others? (this has nothing to do with sex haha)
Its easy to go and serve a day at a place in need...but shouldn't our everyday look something like that?
Shouldn't we give up ourselves to better someone else...even if its in a drive thru at Taco Bell?
Who am I to demand or frustrate someone I don't even know on a personal level?
They may not be having a good day
They may have been through a bad break up
They may not have health care
They may not have a job
They may not have a family to go to when they are at a low place in life
THEY could be you...me...or the guy on a street corner.
Take the THEY, however you want.
I know I say things like this a lot
But we need to stop living by our words alone and actually GO
I'm tired of the established "church" talking about the life Jesus lived, when they stayed glued to the building they are in.
While I was in China 2 things happened that stood out
One: I went to a church where it was in a park and we just played games and ate meals with everyone around.
Two: I went to an underground church where we spent time hanging out and eating...AKA living in community, it was great.
These 2 things are important to how we live, believers and non believers.
Believers..... you should get up and spend more time with those that have nothing, then with those that you see a few times a week anyways (this also helps the people you go to church with to spend more time "outside" the church then within it basically because you aren't there..thus leading them to either join you or leave and stay bored somewhere else)
As non believers I encourage you to continue whatever it is that you do.
Go to parties, get togethers, and spend time with those people.
Because you all are a good example of what Christians should be doing.
We, as believers should want to spend more time outside the "church" then within it.
So, go people, and live amongst everyone..no matter who or what lifestyle they live.

Aaron! Great blog! I will be following along so keep it up.

So true brother. Keep living the life at home. I am scared to even begin to think of what home will be like when i return.
Be freedom.
Be Christ.
