Fitting In?

We spend most of our lives trying to fullfill our needs and our wants only to find that we can't.  That everything we do seems so temporary.  We look for peace in buying things, or eating or trying to help someone else yet we are not dealing with our own issues we are just making that emptiness we feel more permanent.  We fall into that rut and start playing our lives back in our heads only to realize that we have run from the real issues at hand.  We had that friend who offered the answer we needed, we have seen the light only to turn from it, we have felt the resolution in our heart only to run from that to. We have some friends who say oh god isn't real or if he is where is he? Why isn't he helping you now? Than we have those friends that say god is real believe and have faith you are never alone. You begin to think should i believe?Who will leave me if i do? I'm so afraid of believing in something i cannot see. There has to be a reason some of my friends seem so happy and content! So i stand here today and say i choose to believe! I want peace, joy, happiness I may have lost some people along the way but my gain is so much more.  I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out that there is not one than to live my life as if there is not a God and die to find out that there is one.  Amongst all the worry and all the emptiness that has been felt you realize who really is your friend and who is not, God has shown you that with him all things are possible! Whether you are a addict, or a murderer, or a over weight girl who is made fun of, or the thin girl who is too thin, or a nerd who is made fun of all of these are children of God and he can heal you, he wants you to feel his love and strength.  Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.  Spend your time on creating a better stronger relationship with Jesus.  He Loves You!
